Put her barely used 3" lift coils and sway bar links in the FS. Think I'm gonna go higher. Only a few k on the springs and not even broke in.

Double Trouble Cardan

The Peep has driven thru up to 8" of blinding snow some mornings in start of winter storms. Glad it melts by next day. Winter is coming. Time for new universals in the front axles, then pulled the front drive shaft, centering ball of the double cardan cv joint was done. Napa, APC, Cdn Tire, couldn't provide all the parts, having some of the parts just don't cut it. Matt at London Drive Systems knows what a man is talkin about.
New Spicer Ball and Slinger, greaseable! Precision ujoints. Some knockin about and the front drive is now so sweet! Clean it all really well before assembly and keep it lubed. How did the dog get covered in grease?

and i figure it will come off at some point but its made from 3/16" angle so itll probably just bend, i made it a little longer then needed incase it does in hopes of not doing too much damage to the hatch

Yea I mounted it with the bolts for the tailights, but the bolts aren't what broke. The bracket itself broke.

Where is the source for your "Graphite paint"?? Sounds very intriguing. The springs and armor look great.

Put in a new JVC headunit and a pair of Kenwood speakers as well as having the headliner fixed. Swapped out the wipers and putting a new rear view mirror up. Next up is removing the mirrored tint from the windows followed up by a complete detail of the interior.
