we have fords people, its probably going to happen whether its planned or not. hell, breaking down at spring zing is probably the best possible time for it to happen! people can only HOPE that their alternator takes a dump that weekend so the likes of us (the ones who have taken them out) can replace it for them in 1/4 of the time!

I plan on having someone squeeze their skinny arse under my car and pull the rear sway bar out and grease up my urethane bushings for me...

$90 for putting in a new set of springs and struts ! Are you serious! Thats an amazing deal! I paid a guy on the side to do mine for $250 and I thought that was a deal!

Need to rethink list of mods and see if there is anything I need to get done......


Seriously though, the hotel isnt going to have a problem with it?

There's plenty of skinny arses like me around.
I work on my car without stands all the time, unless I have to get to the calipers or really need leverage. ( a la exhaust)

EDIT: Wait, nevermind. Even if I wanted I couldn't get the parts soon enough.




why couldn't you get the parts soon enough? figure $90 for the swap if you haave the parts.



Stick to this price and I'll try to get springs and struts ready for SZ. If I make it $100, will that include an alignment? I'm already talking to someone about their springs.

BTW, should I get an alignment done with stock rims or is 17" mirror machined going to be ok and not being scratched up to [censored]?

Nah, all you have to do to reach the exhaust (manifold collectors even) is drive onto a McDonald's curb with the left side wheels. No jackstands or special tools needed = me at SZ'02 baby!
