    Not the update I'd love to share, but i'll start from the end of the last post. TLDR: Don't 0 out DTM style heims (irp or mrt)




    secondary calipers need to be bled again.....shouldnt take too long.



    motul 2l bottles are the devil. I may switch to torco RGO 85w140 + their type F modifier moving forward per Ray @ kaazusa



    i had to run out to HF and get a set of their metric line service wrenches. I should have stopped here and realized there wasnt much thread left on the adjusters. I will say adjusting toe/camber is so much nicer this way.




    made it to the alignment shop......but barely.....heard a giant clunk passing over the rail road tracks nearby.....turns out i ripped out the adjuster :(



    ^ from here.....to there v



    I will be taking it all apart again (dropping out the rear subframe) and starting over. This is just.....fantastic. I was really hoping to make it to the IFO drift event on Sunday. I'm hoping to get it all back together before end of month/year, and have another alignment setup in January. Just thankful nothing was seriously damaged. I'm annoyed, MRT has apparently revised this part and made the adjuster longer to match the outer heim.......but its the same cost for shipping as it is the part.....I'm going to see if my parts are reusable first and then decide if i should order an entire spare assembly to keep as a spare/backup or just the two revised pieces while the subframe is down/out again.
