wideglideleon liked post by JARblue On thread : 5th Gear grind after maintenance

I have the older harbor freight 2.5 ton long reach low profile jack and love it. Drive the car up on a couple of 2x blocks and it can actually reach the front subframe jack point. Not sure if the...

wideglideleon liked post by Spooler On thread : Suspension issues

I have put over 60k miles on my SPL parts. I also have to drive 1/4 mile on a dirt road to get to my house. The spherical bearings are a non issue. Buy with confidence.
