Becareful of getting powder inside of those coolant pipes.. we've already come across the issue of coolant actually causing powder to come loose and flake off.. i dont know what kind issues could come up from getting pieces of powder in your coolant system but i'm sure it's not good

They've been available for a while. There was a relatively long thread about them in the track section.

Filled the diff and installed it this afternoon...

Got my Cosworth rails in. I don't think I need them but I got a really good deal on it. I might end up just selling them in anticipation of a summer project I will be undertaking on this car.

Kwane, out of curiosity why did you install the lockout washer on the camber arm as oppose to the midlink?

Honestly, there is no reason at the moment. I really just have then there so that I don't lose them. I plan on installing the cusco arm in the rear that adjust toe within the next few weeks and at that point will put the lockout washers on the camber arm.
