^^^ Lol yeah the FI destroyed that bushing renfro... I'm sure it was fine before. Read the previous posts

@nismo0310 Yeah I have open-ended Project Kics lugs and hate the surface rust. Have you heard of people painting the inside of open-ended lugs (of course only the exposed inner thread after installation) with high-temp paint to prevent rusting? I've heard mixed results but done correctly it has worked. May try that soon...

Orderd some Energy Suspension 9.6120R Coil Spring Isolators to replace my rear spring mounts. I wasn't quite ready to cut my rear spring mounts because I want to eventually get a bigger rear tire but I still want that flush look. I'll probably have them installed in a week or two. I'll post pics once it's installed.

You're waiting for a train. A train that'll take you far away. You know where you hope this train will take you. But you can't know for sure. Yet it doesn't matter.

Took the z to CIN last night around 830. Stayed on the lift till midnight. Rear diff bushing replaced, rear diff brace installed, and a bushing block off plate installed to keep that damn bushing from going anywhere. CIN is the place to go!

Wednesday , I picked up my Ings +1 Wing from WillyP28 and today got and half *** installed my Ebay King Style front lip. Not sure if I am going to paint it or leave it black.




Wing will get painted and installed over the winter break.

Even though I don't like the lip or wing, due to both being somewhat rounded in design, will flow well together.

Lol I know right. Posted them up last night around 11pm. Guy texted me at like 11:45 saying he'd be here this morning to trade. Caught me off guard a little..
