got under my car and tried to tighten these... first attempt at going up on ramps was a bust... literally.. used boards and my rhino ramps and of course I shoved a ramp and then slipped off, came down and cracked the front splitter thing... water came pouring out of it that I suspect was just from rain or something... didn't look like there was any other damage. so irritating!
then I decided to just see what I could do with the car on the ground to avoid the ramps (which I've used plenty times with success, btw). I put the wheel in full lock left and right to get a better view of the endlinks... all seemed tight. thought maybe having the wheel turned removed slack so I put the wheel straight and everything still seems pretty snug although it's hard to snake my arm and a wrench around the wheel with the car on the ground.
ugh. 1600 miles on a car that hasn't been tracked and it's already forcing me to futz with stuff to fix it in my garage... not a fan of that and I've gotten rid of cars for less of a reason before.... I really want to track this thing but if parts are going to start falling off ... I just don't know.
