Damn fair enough. I'm always off on Sundays but they close pretty early those days. I don't leave church in LC until like 1:45 or 2:00. Maybe something will work out.

You dont leave church until 2? You must have a pretty late service. I leave a little after 11.

I go to two services. 10a and 11:45a, but I'm running the camera too and I have to wait for my nephew and take him home. He does worship for the youthin their building.

Nice man good luck I hope you enjoy the turbo

Mine holds but if wind picks up it will close the hood on me so I know I need a new one. I've been on the yunkyard so many times never remembered I need one lol

Been working on these side markers. I got the resistors in and left them hooked to my battery directly for 1-1.5hrs and they work like a charm. I just need more E-6000 to finish them off.

Removed my rack spacers, and volla, have a perfectly straight steering wheel again. If anyone has a crooked steering wheel, check your rack alignment before assuming you need an actual suspension alignment. I def drank the coolaid thinking I needed rack spacers. Sure the theory makes sense why you need them, but unless you are on coil overs or super low, you really shouldn't be experiencing bump steer. PA has the perfect roads to test bump steer to, lol.

It's so nice have the wheel straight and spot on. Almost feels weird... I got so used to driving with the wheel crooked.

My wheel is slightly crooked, but the subframe was out as well. Not looking forward to getting my car on a rack

I pulled mine out when I had the subframe dropped weekend before last. No noticeable difference, given I'm on Powell YYZ v1 so not super low.

Adam did you lock the steering rack before dropping the subframe?

I'm not a fan of the washer style rack spacer OTTP uses now. My old rack spacers from OTTP were a nice square block of aluminum, and didn't screw up my steering wheel alignment like these did. I should have kept those, but thought I would never lower my car again, haha. Oh well, not needed in my case anyways.
