    Inner Taillights!

    I had an idea similar to this, except I wanted to make them into rear foglights. Having a DIY for just the socket install alone would be helpful (i.e., placement, backside spacing, etc.).

    axle binding problem

    Re: being slammed is causing me a problem Yea I know this has been said already but it sounds to me like bad tie rod ends or something with the tires themselves...I had a clunking noise coming from my passenger side, the wheel didn't shake, but when I took the tie rod off, the ball-joint-like...

    Skid Plate

    Yea I haven't really done anything else to it...I mean it's mounted and everything and it works well but it's kinda fallen on the back burner cuz I've had other stuff that was more important. Like one of the plugs on the bottom of the frame got pushed up and so water was getting into the car and...

    Skid Plate

    I drilled them. I held the plate to the subframe with c-clamps and drilled the holes in the plate and the subframe at the same time to ensure that they would line up

    Skid Plate

    I considered using 1/8" but I didn't think it would be as sturdy and I knew I wouldn't be able to counter bore the holes for the bolts to make the bolt heads sit flush with the plate. So I went with 1/4" just to be safe and allow for bolt hole counter boring. The plate only weighs about 5 lbs so...

    Front end alignment

    How much camber? And positive or negative? I don't remember my fender heights but the frame under the engine is 2.25" off the ground...and one of the shops I brought it to told me the car had to be 6" off the ground. And there's no way I'm raising my car haha Yea I have the same issue. One...

    Front end alignment

    Front end alignment

    So, I need a front end alignment kinda badly. And every shop I've been to around here can't do it because my car is TOO low... So I was wondering if anyone has done their own front end alignment and if so, how you did it and how hard it is to do... Thanks guys =]

    Yea well I took a file to all the edges because I thought of the same thing, I didn't want to get cut up every time I handled the plate. Worked like a charm :thumbsup:

    Skid Plate

    Thanks man =] In reference to #1 &2: the plate is pulled up a bit toward the front because of the shape of the frame and the location of my bolts. When I put the bolts in and tighten them, it pulls the front edge of the plate up a bit, slightly bending the plate. The corners get pulled up...

    Skid Plate

    In reference to that last part: you are correct. I didn't want to risk something hitting the plate and it putting a lot of upward force on the downpipe. The plate is lower than the curve in the downpipe, but only the bottom side of the plate. In other words, if I hadn't cut the hole, it would...
