I may trailer car down so I'd have a vehicle to get around with.

Very nice and spacious facility. I didn't take any pix of the shop since they work on some customers grudge cars.

CFD xmember flanges are installed finally!
Oil pan drops will be cake now 😉
Took it back apart to prime and paint. Let the primer cure overnight and paint tomorrow.
They take 7/16 bolts 1.5" long.

Previous owner of my 1LE installed LED front turn signals that had the wrong resistance and removed the bulbs from the side markers. I put new bulbs in and the flashers work properly now but noticed the front driver side marker didn't work. Checked the new bulb and it's good so I got my meter out. Sure enough one wire is open circuit. I went to the front bumper connection to see if I was still open there and got lucky! Anywho I now have to unpin the terminal so I can replace it. Instead of getting another terminal to crimp on the wire I had a jumper harness that I just unpinned one and solder connector in. Now it's good to go 😉

47k miles front/rear. Not too shabby out of a "50,000" mile tire.....
Proper alignment goes a long way.

Went 275/40-315/35. Never liked the look of the factory 285s on the rear 20x11 wheels.

Very nice usage out of the old tires. New tires look great. Are you going to mod this one like your old one was?
