you just need to wash your wheels again Becca (we can still see the "blue" on the letters).

Thanks. I took that pic as it was being pulled out of the shop, so I haven't had a chance to wash them yet. I might just give it a good washing and then go to a mall for some "urban wheeling" pics. lol

.... you did your trimming wrong>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >^^^^^^^^^


its supposed to make it so the tires dont rub the fender...not so the fender SITS on the tire

kidding aside: today i locked in some shop spaceso i can FINALLY put on my new D-side door. HOPEFULLY my sway bar parts are in by then and I can knock both of those out in one shot... hell i'll bring my shackles along for S&Gs.... anyway, i looked at it in the driveway and scheduled shop space for friday, awesome story, right?

It was alright. I mean coming from you it was mediocre. I expect more from you.

Get some pics of the shop time used well and it may turn this story around!

Well i attempted to put my shackles on which didnt turn out too good. i couldnt get the bolt out of the bushing so i said screw it, ill do it tomorow at the technical school i go to for auto tech. Then i cranked the torsion bars which only took like 2 minutes so now all i have to do is put the shackles on and i can put my 31" baja claws on. I tried every move in the book to get that bolt out but it wouldnt budge. The nut came off no problem. I didnt even try the other side because it would be pointless if I couldnt get the other one. Its been an frustrating day but thats part of working on cars.

Thats disappointing. At least you have shop time to do it. Don't forget pictures for us vultures!

Machined my front rotors last night. Didn't seem to fix my brake issue 100% though. Round 2 will be machining the rears and possibly new pads. I also need to bleed the brake lines.
