To see everything i have ever done to this Caddy, Pack a lunch and Click here http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/10216-2002-caddy-8-fi-btl-18s-2-rockford-t15k-candy-paint-page-15/ THOUSANDS of pictures.

So after sitting in my shop for about a year or more, Chicken (my friend and the owner) say's he wants his caddy running again. We are good friends so him just leaving it at my shop forever is no big deal, he don't care, i don't mind. So he buys some new batteries for it. They were all dead as a door nail (long story). Anyway, all i have to do is replace them all. That means removing a T15k and every thing in the way to get to the batteries. Major pain. So i did it. But one of the amps started to malfunction so i had to send it in. RF took care of it fast! But while it was gone, i decided his ride was too dangerous to give back till i fixed the suspension.

First of all, the first people who ever did the air bags back in 2002 had ripped out all the sway bars. This thing has been hard to drive ever since and even harder to drive after i installed the system. I re-did most of the air ride and relocated shocks back in 2008. All top of the line stuff...but it still rode like crap. When i noticed the sway bars were gone i decided to get one from the wrecking yard, see if that fixes the problem and if so, get him a better one. It made a HUGE difference, so i got him a DJM sway bar and end links. As you can see i already did the brakes, upper/lower control arms and the panhard bar.

anyhow, the air system has really been acting up lately. It has probably never been drained which is also a problem. The valves were sticky and the bags have water in them. I decided we should rip it all out and start over. He agree'd.


Now that that is all done, i finally was able to get the system up and running. But only one problem. I didn't want to give it back to him with Windows XP still in the dash board. I decided to upgrade him to a new Ipad Air 2. We also FINALLY painted the little caddy switch box.....
