I am in no rush so I expected this from a new player with international logistics to manage. I am curious to see how consistent they will be with customer service to manage delays.
That's what I've been told too.
However, my situation is a bit different. I'm actually in a bit of a rush as I'm in the middle of a move from CA to WA and my car is torn-down in the garage waiting for these to arrive so I can get the car back on the road...so much to do...and not that much time, lol

Mine have shipped as well. Due to arrive next week. Would have been nice to have the long weekend to deal with this.

A little, lol

Originally, I had no idea it was going to take this long to get the coilovers. Luckily, I'm not planning on completing the move until next month. So I do have some time to get this project completed.

Any recommendations on the ball joint tool. also were there any other tools I should buy/rent? I'm doing the install during school tomorrow. I'll be sure to post pics.

I didn't have to remove any ball joints on my 2000 C2 cab. I think I wrote out what I did earlier in the thread. I did have to pull the calipers off the wheel carrier tho to get enough flex for pulling the stock struts out.

The C2 comes with rear adjustable drop links. The C4 comes with all 4.

I'm very pleased to see that your coilovers arrived!

Yes, I did. I found it very helpful.

Me too. The front calipers had to be removed. The rears stayed in place.
