    Just use zip ties for the tie rod boots. That's what the dealership will sell you. They've stopped using those shitty metal clamps.

        Have fun torqing it down too. I just mocked up all my suspension stuff up front hand tight. I gotta figure a way to torque that sumbitch on tomorrow. :?

                  This is turning into a damn war I swear...Here is the current condition of my car.







                  I am trying to get it done...if Kruzen would stop calling me asking suspension questions ;)

                        My car is nowhere near "in shambles", Ken. I was just listing what I need to get done.

                          So James, does that mean you can't come over next weekend to help me do the rear? :(

                          The bentley description of how to do it sounds liek a royal pain the ass.

                              Kruzen, it's just too bad I don't live out there. I have NOTHING to do, and I'd help you out. Not like that means anything.

                              James, your euro bumper is CLEAN. Just thought I'd let you know. I'll go back to pretending the Georgia E30 crew is big and cool.
                              The BMW 318 is back. With a vengeance.
