That one above is only good for newer cars with thin sheet metal bodies. The Eastwood bolt on hub roller is the one.

Reason ppl charge is because its time consuming work, and you can fuck shit up if you dont know what yer doing.

Damn would love to attend, but didn't get to dmv for moving permit...

I have a couple signed DMV moving permits if you want one.

If you guys didn't live so far away, I would. I miss hanging out in the garage with the boys. That's where I have been spending my last 2 days at and prolly the next couple of days tinkering with little stuff.

Got the wiring all sorted out cleanly. Now fuel lines, brake hoses & have to bend the heater valve pipe so the rubber hose don't rub up against the manifold. It's a bit pinched right now.

My friend, Dylan, who did his S52 swap right after we put in mine has his running already. He found me a downpipe from the dealership. Some client bought a brand new cat... so my luck. He's been my saviour in all this. He helped me with the wiring, him being a BMW tech and all...Lol. Thank you, Dylan, you're my hero. Thanks to Chitty for my 5 speed swap parts and hooking me up at BMW Concord.

I can certainly see the light at the end of the tunnel.
