Hmm.. I can spare about $300-$400 for the suspension for now.

Is that his ID name on Ebay "Paul's Fab"?

Thanks for the help!

yes, that is his store.

you might want to save up and get the better setup. I had to buy it in parts for like a year.

bottom line - it's all better than stock especially if you have a 1200. too bad i just sold my old 81 210 front strut setup, it'd be a good starting place for a 1200. So maybe get a sunny front strut and all that good stuff and convert that, then it's all boltins ( sort of ... )

I've had to grind wheels to get them to clear brake calipers as well ;)

these things happen...

Would it be good to grind the calipers as opposed to the wheels? In my stock 1200 the caliper housing is sticking out about 3/4 inch from the rotors and this is what's hitting the rims...

I am contemplating of grinding it off to flush against the rotor so I can get my rims installed.... is this a good idea???

depends what you are grinding, and how much, maybe post a pic. if it's like what I think it is, then cutting it that much is probably not good. I had to make room for clearance of maybe 1 - 2 mm, and just 3 mm wide across each of the spokes where they start at the center where they're thick.
