    I've got too much going on right now, I need to just get rid of this car.

    The wheel hop issue is fixed, it looks like I didn't get the right sized bolts with the lcas, so unless they were ridiculously tight they would move. VRE figured that out, they tightened the snot out of them and the wheel hop was gone. I ended up putting the Hotchkiss boxed lcas back on today, the bolt are the right size for them.

    While I was still attempting to fix that, I switched the torque arm setup from a tunnel mounted spohn to a tailhouse mounted adjustable BMR. The gear whine decreased immensely and the rest of the ride is a lot less harsh. The downside is the clearance, I had to push the tunnel sheetmetal out of the way.

    I got water a couple of times on the passenger side floor. I just figured out that when I did the window motor mod I ripped the grommet, and water was coming in there. I used some silicone to seal that hole up.

    The driver side turn signal/day light lamp got water in it, and the socket is fried.

    Make an offer, I want to sell the car. I don't have room for it anymore.
    It's my fault for making it look so easy.

    how much for the spohn?
    A gun is like a parachute. If you need one, and don't have one, you'll probably never need one again.

    It's been modified a little bit. I shortened it by about 2" and modified the crossmember so it doesn't hang so low. I paid 400 for it, I'll sell it for 175.

    I replaced both the turn signal, daytime running lamps(housing, sockets, bulbs). Been driving it the last week or so, it runs like a bat out of hell

    I put it on craigslist yesterday, I may try ebay when we get back from vacation in two weeks. Make an offer!

    Thanks man.

    I'm pretty flexable on the price too. I've got other things I'd like to do with the cash right now!

    Yeah, I'm still trying to sell it. Not really trying too hard, but it is for sale. I've driven it pretty much everyday the last month, it's running awesome. I got 23mpg last weekend going to Grand Haven and back!

    A couple kids came and test drove it today. One of them has a mostly stock camaro, and they both thought my car "felt" slower than his. I said "trust me, it's not."

    It's on craigslist for 8k.
