patiently waiting for my car to be out the exhaust shop... i hate waiting

Dropping the subframe isn't bad. I did it by myself in a weekend. It would have been faster if I had a second set of hands to help line it up when going back in. The hardest part of dripping mine was getting it to break free from the front mounts after pushing the bolts up into the cabin area. I used a torch to cut the old bushings out.

yeah it's a custom exhaust setup. May want to shop the job around to different places.

I don't have much time to trailer it to shop to shop. I had to go back to work. So I dropped it off and left

the exhaust shop was questioning even doing the exhaust. they said it's gonna be hard and take a lot of work.... all i heard was $$$$$

[Reyhan335]

just when i thought i had a couple steps left, i jump back 7 more.

but it's okay. it has to be done anyways..

Just spread it out then. Take your time dropping the subframe, it's not really that hard but can be a bit unwieldy.

Schedule the whole day just to make sure you aren't rushing.

shit, it's hard to get a full day to work on it when i'm pushing 80 hrs a week at work:/ it'll have to be nights

[jpod999]

For someone who's never done it , how long would you think it'd take.

Pretty simple but really time consuming

I think I'm going to get all new bushings for the rear including that... I've never done bushings tho..

If you just get the subframe bushings with the 12mm riser built in you should be good.

438.14+111 for u joint


It's so close to hitting the top. It looks like I'll have to replace all the bushings and raise the subframe up a bit..... Idk


Going to exhaust shop either tmrw or Thursday... It's a tight fit. Don't worry the lines won't stay kinked like that. Just put it there so it'd be easier for the exhaust guy




Also thanks to Texas speed they swapped the tune to my new pcm and bought my old pcm.
