I'll make sure there's a cold beer in the fridge :eekdance:

Gosh darn I want to get the Z out on the road full time. Took a nice, slow cruise through the back country roads this weekend and it brought on Z fever pretty bad.

Since I do not have the authority to outsource my job, I am going to do the next best thing. outsource my job to Ethiopian contractor!
Deported to Ethiopia!

I've got a 5lb bag of sugar and full bottle of syrup, that's pretty much the same thing

That works too. As long as it has some citrus-y flavors also

I don't do the energy drink thing, but like citrus too and these ones are actually pretty tasty!

one other tip is to mark ur front strut hat which bolt goes into which hole in the strut tower. dere is an orientation and u have to screw down the shaft nut so dat the hat is in that same orientation before u mount it back on da car.

besides that, removing the endlinks from the swaybar, u need both front/rear wheels off the ground in pairs. dont force the threads out as they will strip. you should be able to push them out with your fingers with little to no force

i always use a hydraulic under da knuckle to preload da suspension before torquing da fasteners down.

just basic stuff :D

If you pay attention to the brackets for the brake lines they only go one way so you don't need to mark the hats. You wouldn't be able to clip the lines in if you put the on the opposite sides.

Right, so that means I will need to take everything apart to get the brackets on the right way... Noted. :icon17:
