the rear suspension swap was staight forward but another set of hands would have made it much easier.

The ZO7 spring went in easier that the FE1 spring came out due to the huge angle of it.

I found out 91 ZO7 had a 26 mm sway bar in the rear and 24mm other years, I have a ZO7 sway in there now but also have a 91 sway. I'll havbe to compare and see if they are the same size and switch if not.
