chris- btw, for the front, since whiteline recommends using the same lock for their 25mm and 27mm, i just went with a 1" inner-diameter collar lock from ruland (as back up, im going to use the whiteline stock collars to start off).

check here for available sizes... i'd get the steel ones if you can. i got the aluminum pair cause amazon was out of stock.

I'll look into it once I know for certain I don't have anything on there.

This week it's brake work:

Swapping Left Front Caliper

Upgrading pads to Ferodo DS2500

Fluid Flush

Next week it's electrical:

Installing rear view cam

u got a busy week, chris! :tup:

here's a pict from mr.gale's build thread. you can see that his bar has no locking collar, but he has a package there that look like 2 silver rings on the left. mine was missing that little bag with the rings. :mad:

the recent lots already come with the locks pre-mounted per the pict i posted earlier.

I think maybe my bars had those physically on the bar... but I'm not sure, I'll try to catch a peek while working on the brakes. I'll snap a pic or two.



Gotta get everything prepped for ZDayZ. :tup:

Oil change is next week also. Then the only fluid that will not have been swapped is the PS fluid. Debating on if that's even worth it, and if so, what fluid to go with. Some people were saying NOT to use the Redline "Power Steering Fluid" for PS Fluid? :ugh2: To instead go with... fuuu I can't remember which one now. :facepalm:

Well she's going on 3+ years old, and will hit 50k by ZDayZ, so I figured, why not?

I think people would just say use oem. I wonder why it was recommended not to use redline. From my experience I have been extremely satisfied with Redline oils.

pint i repped you, pressed enter too quickly so no signature and didn't finish my sentence.

hope your day gets better

Haboob 04-18-2013 02:52 PM

Nothing like getting an invite at noon the day of for some supposed bachelor party!

On a Thursday night? The night before the wedding? And people work the next day? You crazy!

Not sure what people are thinking sometimes. Then it turned into begging everyone for money for a limo, suite, dancers, whatever he decided to change the idea to... :icon17:

Needless to say, I'm not going. I don't drink anyways, so I'm not going to be a well dressed babysitter. :mad:










So how are all of your afternoons?
