Hahaha i've read all the oil threads...

And i think i'm going to replace that arm. He believes liquid wrench is as good as PB but i think i proved him wrong today :P

That's a little pricey. My can of PB costed 4 bucks at oreilly

 

Cheaper, yes. Better than Kroil, no.

 

Waiting on new control arms and struts in the mail...

Guess I'll start sanding my new front valance for paint! Hear that haterz???

BTW if anybody is interested in a turbo rear valance (black, almost perfect except one broken stud) shoot me a PM...

 

 

 

Good call on replacing it. Right thing to do.

 

Bump?

 

 

I'll keep us on topic with an update!

Got the whole driver's side assembled, after wrestling with it a few hours last night... Just have to tighten down a few of the bolts and I'm set.

Then there's still the whole passenger's side to do...

I used an old placemat to make "green performance gaskets"

 

Put everything together for the drivers side and all I can say is, uhhhhh

I set the camber full negative, set the coilover about as low as it goes, and took it around the block. After pulling back in and measuring the ground to valance, the updated side sits 1" HIGHER than the old...

Uhhhhhhh... I'm hoping it just hasn't set in yet, cause I was expecting a range of ride height control, including LOWER than stock.

 

I think I'll adjust it to highest setting sometime for the hell of it- it'll be like a truck lift kit!!!

 

I guess Koni's with 200# springs would have been a better investment...
