No, I think the turbos were going out and I did not know it. I'll just get them rebuilt and sell the kit most likely.

Sweet let me know when your ready. I'll see what I can do for you.

Might as well just do your front and rear camber, rear toe and all of your bushings while youre in there. Get it all done at once and not have to worry about it anymore.

About 2000 miles on on ksports at the moment... been tending to family stuff, cave tubing in Belize, Zip-lining in Honduras, and built a PC for my girl and a gaming rig for myself.... just allocating my resources elswhere, no love for the car lately but she is due. I saw pat got a solution worked out and I didn't really get in a hurry after that. :-\

Love the titan... I thought about going that route for my "Dad car"

Jake - I'll let you check out whichever phone I go with. I'm getting away from the iPhone. I loved it for a long time, but android phones are full of more win these days.

I was in Vegas last weekend (first time there). I will make my second trip to Vegas fall during SEMA. You lucky dog!

When I first so the pic I thought it was a poster that was 3 or 4 feet tall. Then I read it was your ticket. Must go with the big checks you get when you win stuff.



Well I just finish the rear bushing install. Holy shttt that took a long time. Took over 5 hours for the first side and still around 4 for the second side..

Nothing that difficult just a lot to remove, press out, lube up and reinstall.
Everything went in nice and tight so I should be way slower Chris

Go Rangers 3 - 2 in the 4th

Oh me-me-me ! I can be your biotch assistant, take note & pics and buy you drinks.

j/k.....I know you need to take somebody better versed than myself.

I would still love to go to it someday.....I hear they do some sort of AutoX challenge that is set up & organized by ????, but there is somebody that walks around and personally gives out invites to attend and compete. That would fun to watch.

Tonight is fine to come by at anytime Jake, shoot me a text when your on your way.

No I didnt do the subframe. Everything came off easy, a lot of bushings to press but only one or two really gave any kind of problems. I spend more time greasing up the bushings and trying not to get the sticky **** everywhere.

Hi guys,

Where can I get my flat tire patched without damaging the wheel around Allen/Plano area? As you know, most NTB/Discount Tire usually damage the wheel when they mount/dismount tire.

Thanks in advance.

Go to a BMW, Lexus or Mercedes-Benz dealer....their tire changers are completly different that any typical place....

But you gotta pay to play....
