Update: Progress on Barb 1/5/2016

Its been some time since I last reported on progress from Barb. We have been working through a myriad of issues that needed to be addressed during the latest updates. Needless to say even with all the issues that needed to be addressed prior to the installation of Control Freak Suspensions I am very happy with the results. (The issues were with the brakes not with the suspension kit). By adding this it effectively eliminated the Trunnion suspension and updates it to a full IFS. Thanks to Control Freak Suspensions for their assistance where and when needed. They were completely professional and very supportive. Thanks Al

Just a few quick Shots of the new brakes installed along with the cross member. I will start working on walk throughs as I will need to remember how to do this in the future. I can say this though it will not be my last suspension from them as I need one for my Javelin too.
