Hey that's cool if you guys couldn't get the springs off tonight.. Lemme know if you can get them off sometime soon. Only reason is because I need an alignment and I don't want my tires to premature ejaculate..... Or wear for that matter!

Maybe if you get them off by Saturday I'll swing by the BB meet and snake 'em off ya! If you were planning on going that is..!

joski... I'm gonna try and get them off today. We got the fronts off lastnight, it's just the rears were a bitch and it was getting to dark. lol

You should see my car though... the front looks like it's 4x4'n and the rears are almost tucked.

Anyways, thanks for the tip Pharoh, I'm gonna stop by Crappy Tire and pick some of that **** up. Hopefully they come loose today.

BTW... Anyone here want to help me with my springs. I'll do all the hardwork... I just need a second guy there to do the little things.

If I wasn't busy tonight I'd stop by and help for sure.. Sorry bro. I know we haven't formally met or anything like that! haha.
Dude are you going to BB on Saturday? If so, I'll stop by for a bit and I can get those springs off you then.

BTW. How are your rears tucked? Arren't the H&Rs only a 1.3" drop all around? haha the lower the better for though!

They're almost tucked because the fronts are so high, plus I have a 2 ton jack, 2 jackstands, a sub in a box, stock and H&R springs, spare tire, OEM jack, etc... in the trunk. I'll try to get a pic of it later... Looks funny as hell.

BTW... yeah I'll be at the BB meet this Saturday. Cya then.

Joski- Once you get the springs on make sure you tighten ALL your lugnuts up! Dont get all excited and forget about em. I heard about this guy whose wheels almost fell off while he was taking it for a test drive after getting lowered. What a moron.haha

Oh ****, really? Haha yea, I don't have any air tools but I'm gonna see what I can come up with. I think (if I stop by the LAC BB meet on Saturday) Sunday will be my install day for these though! I won't forget to tighten them though.. I think I'll absolutely CRY if one of my rims got all ****ed up!

Ok... well holy ****. Another day has gone by and we only managed to get the drivers side rear spring off. The ****ing bolt on the passenger side rear would not budge. Me, Bruno, Mike and even Danny tried doing everything. I bought that Liquid Wrench stuff and it only worked on the one side, I used the rest of the can on the other side but it didn't do squat... I even drove my car to work, at 9:30pm, where we have air tools and I couldn't get the ****ing bolt off with an Impact Gun! My car looks even more gay then it did before because now it just looks like I have a flat on the one side

I gotta call a shop to see if they can get it off for me cause I'm pretty much ****ed.
Anyways, this **** will hopefully be done by today.

^^^ Maybe January 1, 2005...just around the corner.

I created this "part II" way back in the day because the load on the server couldn't retrieve the original part I thread quickly enough. Hence, we were going to create many "part" threads, but the server can handle this thread no problem these days.

In the first pic... it looks like the camera was held on an angle... well that's not the case... my car is just lobsided.
In the second pic... my car is ready for take off.

Hahaha 4x4 is what I'm doing now.. My Proxes 4s on 17" rims look like monster truck wheels or something.. It's quite interesting!
I hope I wasn't a pain in the *** for you or anything! I'm still gonna try to come out to the Saturday meet.. I'm on a new schedule next week so I wouldn't be able to make it to ANY meets.. Except the Sunday ones if they still exist..?

Rich... that was me the other day on Devron when I honked at you and waved as we criss crossed.

Jay... pain in the ***... yes. You're fault... no. These had to come off this week anyways, and it's better that I got them off now then do it later and find out that everything was seized.
Anyways, see you Saturday. As for the Sunday meets, yes, they still exist. They're now at the St.Peter's parking lot downtown at 10pm.

Chris... did you like my voice message?

Hey guys just wondering what you guys are running speaker wise, not subs. I got a 4 channel amp and HU just looking for some ideas for new speakers.

I'm content with my factory system for now.. Especially since I have an intresting hibernation planned for my car this winter. I'd probably only consider changing the 6x9s though! I like the tweets. As for the door speakers, meh!

I have absolutely no valuble information for ya bro!

If you're not getting subs or anything, I'd suggest running new 6x9's in the rear. Stock 6x9's blow *** and crap out early.


Peasey... I'll be there... but instead of bringing our own food... why don't we all pitch in and buy a box of burgers or some ****.
