Wow.. Nice job! Good way to work off the holiday meal too. 
 
Looking good!

Yup , and also now there is piece of mind knowing all is tight now , looks good!

Btw did you rubber gard the wheel wells ? Seems nice and dark.

Great job; and it's better than spending time in shopping mall ;-)

Nice Job Jimmy!!!

Thanks guys, it was a tough job especially the lower table rearward bushings. It's really a PITA to remove and install. 
 
Just arrived from a 10 hour long snow storm drive from my place to mom's place here in Rockland, MA to pick-up my 35" tires.
 
Man, the two H3 drove like a BOSS while lots of cars and trucks are on the ditch. But, i already missed my H2 when times like this.
