Love the bike there Bill. You must have been a good boy last year lol! Stock suspension is where it is at for me. If everything is tight and the bushings and shocks are good, it's not a bad ride at all. We are expecting some good snow here in Nashville on Saturday, so I am gearing up for some stock-height fun!

Thanks, yeah dude, the Ruckus is a riot. I'm not sure why? It's a lot more fun to ride than it has the right to be...
Stock height is good for now on the wag... Appearance wise- I just prefer a wagon with a respectable drop...
Good luck jon-wa-GO-van on finding ANY of the stuff that Bill finds. He SAYS it was EBAY, buuuutttt the hard truth is Bill has his own part-out shop in the Netherlands, which also serves as a global hoarding location for all NOS and related unobtainium Honda aftermarket. There, I said it Bill! The truth is OUT! Nice cargo unit though. Nothing less than I would expect from you...lol

Oh I'm not evvvven going to try to get on Bill's level with crazy NOS stuff. I just like getting my wagon high. Simple things.

"Installed some window bars. It was a real pain in the ass."
Well, the NEXT time, and there will be a next time Bill, you will install the cargo box AND the jail bars AT THE SAME TIME. See, I just saved you a ton of time on your NEXT project Wagon. There, well I feel better....

lol. I hope no next time... I was more curious about these bars than wanting or needing them... Like, I just wanted to see them.
Thanks Bill! The only use (and still not very useful) I have seen for these is some guy strung like 38,008 tree shaped air fresheners between the two bars. I think they are supposed to keep things from breaking the windows since they are offered on "the crappiest model of Wagon- the Wagovan/Civic Pro..." and those are like cargo vans in Japan.

yeah yeah that sounds right... I think they are in some vw model's? and probably a lot of other cars as well.
Beagle doors. I just wanted a few bits off of them... I was going to do an auto window swap, but am still contemplating that...
In the mean time I will take the visors. The Rear visors showed up trashed, but the fronts were good.
Luckily some dude on Facebook posted some miscellaneous visors for sale. So I was able to put together a complete set.
I cleaned them up
And installed.
I will likely sell the doors with pretty mint door cards and the auto window parts... I dunno...

I put stock suspension on the wagon.
I will do some adjusting on the Skunks and retry them this summer/spring, if I still don't like them I will sell them and try something else.
Stock height.
Stock height is wonderful for snowboarding.
Also, Santa dropped off a new toy.
Santa also dropped off a new red oem seat for the ruckus.
corralled them all together.

Make sure to take pix of your snowy adventures!
Installed
chanks man.
I found them on the Ebays. Install is kind of time-consuming, but very easy.

it all makes sense now...
They are handy... help hide all the shtuff I put in the rear of the wagon...
Bingo.
These are good goals to have.
exactly.
I'm gonna try...
nothing...

Are the Mugens going to make it on the wagon one day?
The Mugens were sold. They are currently on a Honda Beat.
The guy that bought them (Jake) is a really cool dude. He let me drive the Beat and then bought me a beer. A+ dude.
they are for sale. Pictures on the instagram: @billdirects
So I ran into an actual wagovan today at the salvage yard. Which is great because I had so many question with how the rear jail bars mount.
All questions answered.
The wagovan has a bonus bracket. Drill it out- I did not have a drill. I used a chisel and hammer.
I removed excess metal at home, sprayed black, and re-installed. I also took the wagovan plastics from the wagovan at the yard...
