Default ITS ABOUT TIME!!!!

Well, for those of you who have been on the forum for over a year might know that I have had a TON of parts just hanging on the walls of my garage looking pretty for the past year or so just waiting to be installed... well I finally did it! LoLThe last few days have been very long and stressful but all around went suprisingly well! Heres a list of parts installed.... total timetook about 40-50 hours including drinking time and time driving around picking up stuff.

Moroso 7qt Oil Pan, Moroso Oil Pick Up, Miloden HV Oil Pump, SCE Oil Pan Gasket, ARP Oil Pan Studs, ARP Oil Pump Drive Shaft, D&D K Member, D&D Arms, UPR Front Coil Over Kit (12" 250lb Springs), Strange 10 Way Adj. Stuts, Maximum Motorsports C/C Plates, Energy Suspension End Link Set, Energy Suspension Sway Bar Bushings, Energy Suspension Motor Mounts, Tie Rods,Ball Joints, Rotors, Pads, Wheel Bearings, etc. and about 90% NEW Grade 8 bolts for almost everything, etc Im sure Im forgetting something lol

All thats left is Moroso Dipstick, brake pads, oil change & put my hood back on and than IM DONE!!! Just thought I would share, Ive been waiting so long for this, ITS ABOUT TIME! [sm=yeahsmile.gif]

And the answer to your question was no I havent driven it yet... just a few small finishing touches and than I need to get it into the shop to get an alignment done before I can get on it. Im definetly expecting a big difference in handling/braking.

Holy ****, LoL. It has been awhile. I remember you had a ton of parts but never got around to installing them. Last I remembered, your GF had just got you some gears for your b-day and you got around to installing them. Then you vanished
