Hey Mike, that's awesome! What about the 1G what's going on with it?

A buddy of mine and I spent all night Saturday installing it, the suspension mount kit only had 1 washer, which puzzled both of us for a while. We said whatever, and put it on. We had the washer on top, then a bushing, the shock tower hat, and another bushing underneath. We took it out for a drive and within 30 seconds of driving on it the lower bushing fell through on 3 of the struts and we had to pull it back in. As far as we know the only problem is we need that other washer which I'm gonna pick up from Home Depot tonight so we can finish it. It sits awesome right now, if we could just get it to drive right, it would be perfect. Is there anything else that I'm missing before we go rip it all out again tonight?

Here's how the car sits now.

if its not driving right you will probably need an alignment.

Alignment is on the to do list. And two new tires for the rear. I've worn the sidewall almost completely out.

Suspension is in! Sits amazing and handles even better. Getting strut tower braces next after new tires and an alignment. I'll post pictures up tomorrow.

Your welcome fuck face.

And the other lesson besides putting the wrong parts in is to not let your dumbass friends help you. Welcome to the right way of doing things dude. I told you a million times a solid car starts from the ground up! Now for that 4g swap...

P.S. I wanna take it on the "test area" and tune the AGX's in more. And btw you need driving lessons. LMFAO!
