Rotated my tires, alignment and found out my track bar is shot...
Any one disagree on getting a adjustable track bar?

Went on a plasti dipping frenzy. Finished the body side moldings, bumper caps, and did the wheels. Everything turned out well except the wheels but can't really tell the difference from a few feet away. The moldings almost look new. I'll post some pics in the day light tomorrow.
Quick tips to anyone who wants to try this: make sure the area is well ventilated, tape off area to avoid overspray, spray at least 12 inches away, and 4 coats worked the best. And if you get any on the paint, don't worry...Goo Gone takes it right off.
