Now waiting for a Durango steering box, WJ steering pump and new PS lines to come in the mail.

Got some DW and found that my box was leaking so I figured I'd replace it all after I get an alignment this weekend

well I'm not overly impressed with the putco. I didn't install it yet since I immediately found a broken crimp upon inspection. I plan to depin and check everything and run some solder over everything. Overall it's well worth the price but I can see how people have had issues with them.

I installed my hatch struts (cheap ebay ones less than $30 shipped for both) They work perfect. (who knows for how long) but my old ones were blown.. I took them off and they wouldn't even slide back out.


anywaaayys today my autopal ecodes should be in.

My putco harness was good. I got it awhile ago, maybe quality has declined.

I am now really torn.

I don't know if I should buy my long arms, a tube bender, or....

Something just offered to me for $1300...a Dodge Stealth RT (twin turbo awd).

The Stealth needs turbos rebuilt, but would be worth a hell of a lot if done. Easy money to be made.

:worried:

The way I see it...

Buy the stealth for $1300, rebuild the turbos, beat the hell out of it til I sell it, make double my money.

I like flipping cars for extra money. Haven't done it much, mostly with my old room mate, but its fun.
