Axles are the same for each side, at least on the SS SC.

Worst thing for a car is to let it sit

had a clunk for a while, had to replace the sway bar end links. now it has the normal dash slamming, but less front suspension clunk. it probably needs all new suspension stuff and probably steering too.

Your ride is always super clean Doug. Great work!

I just purchased the first few parts of my suspension, all FE5: Moog problem solver endlinks, AC Delco rear springs, and a new intermediate shaft. When I get paid again, I'll be buying the pre-assembled moog struts.

Now I just have to wait another month so the weather gets back to above freezing.

Thanks profDNS! Just like the rest of us I certainly put a lot of time & $ into my build so it's always nice to get a compliment from a fellow modder! You're gonna be happy with those Moog end-links stops that front end noise for sure!

Thanks snail! Juan must have shipped our packages at the same time lol. You'll have to post some pics after you get your headlight covers installed! & your right they aren't cheap so it's not hard to run out of $ before getting the complete set. I'm just waiting on Juan to cut me a fuel rail cover & door sills & I'll have the complete set!

Started tearing her down again for another clutch swap. GMPP.

KY clutch has been beyond phenomenal but it's more clutch than I need for my setup.

I always wondered if the coil cover that's on the lsj and Saab 2.0 is detrimental to the life of the coils. Lnfs didn't have one and I hear way less about their coils failing. Wonder if the lsj coils get too hot under there. Looks really nice Doug.

Thanks Nova & good call about the coil cover. I've been fortunate & haven't had any issues. My OEM never acted up & then I installed the Zzp high voltage packs a couple years ago & they have been great as well.

On the right side there's an opening to let fresh air in but it's nothing like having the cover off.
