Jason came down today so we could put his exhaust back on and install his LCA's, we also installed my one piece aluminum driveshaft that I have had sitting around for almost a year now.
We got his exhaust all back on and straightened out, repositioned the car for the LCA install, jacked it up, got it set up then I ask him "wheres your wheel lock key?"......."oh shit"
LOL he left it at home an hour away.
So we decided to be adventurous and install the LCAs WITH the tires on. Wasnt bad at all actually, I will probably do it this way from now on if I have to do any more of them.
Then we got to install my driveshaft, I did NOT feel like removing my over axle pipes because I JUST got the mufflers to actually come out of the bumper at the proper angle and length last week and I didnt want to have to realign them, so we replaced the DS without removing a single piece of exhaust. No major hiccups there except for a bunch of what seemed to be gear oil came pouring out of the rear flange where it attaches to the pinion flange, doesnt appear that my pinion seal was leaking though? I removed the old stock pinion flange and put the cobra flange on and bolted the DS up.
Took the car for a spin and SO MUCH BETTER. More responsive, all that clunking of the stock DS is gone, no high speed vibrations or anything. Im lovin it.
We were going to take some GoPro vids but when we went out to go film I got a call....from Jason....he forgot the SD card in his computer at home, lmao.
Anywho, onto the few pics I snapped during the day.
