Double shear allows for more axle droop. And provides a new and stronger unibody side mount.

Is there a write up anywhere for the Oil filter adapter on a renix?

Do any parts stores sell the entire gasket set for the adapter?

Napa gave me a universal set that worked, dealership should have it too. Easy, use power of Thor to get the 5/8 nut off replace the o rings. I also applied some rtv.

quick question, I go to an off road park about 2 hours away from home and I have an old ss tire for a spare that's been recut pretty deep, should I consider it safe for highway driving? or would that strictly depend on how much tread is left?

On My 94 the AC or heat will blow only on defrost under hard acceleration or whenever it pulls vacuum. Any specific place I should start looking and how do you do the dye leak test?

Hmmm I'll swap it with my 98's.

The left one hangs lower, should that effect anything?
