near a grand in lower links, oi!

2.25 or 2.5 lowers doesn't seem a terrible idea though.

ya it is really easy to throw gobs of money at a car 

[mr.mindless]

Already have done so.

Not much to show for it, aside from it being back to functional status - with more leaks.

[M4wdFab]

welcome to racing

[mr.mindless]

ordered bushings, dipstick, kickdown cable.

borrow portaram or hit M4 to straighten the bumper sunday or next week?

[M4wdFab]

Porto ram has been acting special and i dont want it broken so id be happy to help you. 

i can bring it sunday or ill stop over sometime.



Also expect we will have a race prep night or two next week your welcome to bring the car over then

[mr.mindless]

Sounds good.

The only other big thing on the needs list is front axle seals. I almost want to think about gears since I'll be that deep into one end, but I think I'm just going to leave it 4.10s for now...

I have the 1 1/4 lf and rt taps I believe if you can find someone with a lathe.

[mr.mindless]

maybe we should price some raw material to compare, then? Not sure if smike's lathe is up to the task, there was an auto feed issue wasn't there?

[M4wdFab]

my late only passes like 1" lol

[mr.mindless]

Found a stick that stalled the motor at Jared's. Very lucky... Had matt push me backwards off of it, no harm seemed to be done. Didn't bend the crank pulley.

Erik Miller on 571 driver side motor mount:

"that looks like someone didn't want that to come off a 3rd time"

I am surprised you did not say it was due to tony. 

[mr.mindless]

Not the first time I've moved right into brush for oncoming traffic. Won't be the last...
