No kidding. I lifted the chassis back up to tighten the clamps when replacing my engine.

I forgot about those hoses on the initial drop and had it more or less suspended by them on the way down. Forgot again on the way back in and had everything already torqued and mounted before I remembered. Swapped the OEM pinch clamps for screw type for ease of installation.

Oh yes, I also destroyed them on the way out. Had to buy replacements, then when they arrived noticed that one of them was molded in reverse somehow (curved right instead of left). Still works so I didn't bother getting a replacement.

In short, worst hoses ever in every way.

Finally got on a new caliper after the bleeder bolt stripped the threads. Decided to go ahead and bleed the clutch and it shifts like butter.

Did new strut mounts and sway bar bushings and I'm amazed at how many rattles and clunks it got rid of from the front end

Went to the weigh station with a buddy that used to be on here, but he has a neon srt4 now. I weighed in (just car as is no stripping) at 2920, my buddy weighed in at 2700 just taking a few things off real quick.

Last time I weighed my car was right around 2800-2900lbs in street trim. That was including a tool kit, jumper cables, me, and a tow strap.

I had an umbrella, a few things for the car wash, a quart of oil in the trunk, 3/4 full tank, spare, the jack from factory, that's about all I can think so it should be around 2900lbs

Made the first successful carbon fiber bow tie a couple days ago. It's been hard getting back into the groove after the hospital lol. But I'm determined!
