LQ4 Dodge Ram!!!
Heres todays progress.
Got the motor pulled.
Started breaking down the front suspension.
I have new poly bushings coming and as soon as i get the ball joints pressed out the control arms will be dropped off at the powder coater to get done in red.
I am also going to have my battery tray done in black.
The spindles will be replaced with drilled and slotted. It sucks there isn't a brake conversion or upgrade. So every little bit will help.

Dropped my upper and lower control arms along with my battery tray off at the powder coater today. Im getting the control arms done in red and the tray in black.
Its only going to cost me $50! I may also have my coil springs done as well. He said that the powder coating is flexible enough it doesnt crack and fall off.

I wasnt sure if there were different powdercoating processes or stuff like that. Im trying to keep with the black and red color scheme on the frame. So I may get my springs done in black or maybe something crazy like yellow. lol

Front part of the frame rust sealed and painted. I used a KBP 3 step process from summit racing.
Ill be ordering my drilled and slotted rotors soon along with some hawk pads. as well as adjustable drag shocks.

Rust treated my spindles and got the control arms bolted up.
They are going to look awesome with the slotted rotors!
Ill have some pics up of the completed spindles tomorrow. Letting the primer and paint dry all night.
