Default update

Starting on the pasenger side putting my coilover setup on yesterday and finally got one side done early this morning( lots of very tight bolts with no acess to a air compressor= lots of curse words.) Went to back it out of the driveway to make sure there was no rattles and as soon as came off the concrete slab I heard a loud clunk. Took everything back off and double checked everything, put it back together and same thing noise. turns out I have a lot of play in my ball joint.


So instead of buying new balljoints and having to fool with pressing them in I guess I will just upgrade to MM tubular control arms. Was going to upgrade to them anyway down the road but wasn't planning to spend the money right now. So now I will have to wait till next weekend to finish, its a good thing this is not my DD.

Note to self. Have a good air compressor with a good impact wrench when working on suspension parts on a 15 year old car.
