What state are you in?

Tagged. This is very relevant to my interests.

My Napa axles are still doing great. They do rust bad though. I'll paint the next set for sure. I'm running at 2.3" lift on a set of bilstein 6112 and put on a set of JBA arms last year. They're probably 4-5 years old now So far they've held up very well. No tearing, no nothing. Only have 8-9k...

No time crunch at all. I should have worded my first post better. Just need to figure out the best way to go. My alignment guy wanted to order one and I had them hold off. I figured oem was the way, but I hadn't done my homework yet.

The aftermarket steering rack that came on my 99 when I bought it is finally dying. No surprise there. What is the very best steering rack option currently? Is it the 44250-35042 part# the one to get? Is there a better aftermarket or OEM option? I legitimately could care less what it costs. I...

Good deal.

How'd them rear coil springs I sent ya a while back work out?

I for one will be anxiously awaiting your thoughts on the new supercharger set up.

How do you like them so far? I've been thinking about putting a set on my 99 sport. Already have oem fender, flares, and 3-D print mudflaps for the front. But I'm kind of thinking about the Bushwacker ones as maybe they have better clearance inside to run a bigger tire, perhaps. And it makes it...

I was just thinking the same thing? You sure you don't have 891's? Rough isn't how I would describe my 890's at all... Should be a tag on them. May have to even measure the coil diameter and free length. Link for spring info Cruiser Outfitters

Tires are probably the biggest element here. Bilstein makes a nice shock. I only have experience with the 6112 upfront though. I'm running a similar set up other than I am 6112 upfront, 5160 in the rear with Durobumps front rear. Obviously, the coil spring front is different. Since I put new...

Your heater core is clogged. It's very common on 3rd gen's due to the system arrangement of the heater shutoff valve sitting so high and radiator issues. Then the added problem of people can't seem to maintain cars and degas bottles get ran dry causing corrosion and junk in the system. Use...

What I used as well. While I was there I took the opportunity to replace cam and crank sensors also.

I'll have to echo Tim here. Just do it. This sort of job can be a little hard if you don't know what you're doing and or don't have a service book. With the amazing how to videos (this one in particular) it's not a problem at all. Very doable. He breaks down what you'll need for tools, torque...

I replaced the cats with some hilariously expensive Magnaflow carb ones and new sensors.... wow what a difference. The cats the were there were some craptastic cheapies. Even the pipes were too small. Well that solved her shibox status. Check lights gone. Wires and plugs were good in mine...
