Ugh, man. Definitely remove the x from each headlight and return the inside lights to just clear lenses. Later, QD.

Yea... i just got bored with the tape. I kinda liked the yellow inner lights. The front just looks too plain without it. But I have to buy some new lights anyways. So, I'll compare them to see which I like better then.

When are we dropping it a few inches?

Hopefully sometime soon. I've been so busy helping other people with their cars and all, just haven't found the time to do stuff to mine, except drive. Haha. But I just finished sanded down all the wheels. Bout to go paint them here in just a second. And I'm probably going to change the oil while I'm at it.

You seriously down?! I got a job today so I'm going to wait until I get the money to replace the struts and shocks. Oh and yea... its coils all the way around.

[quickdodge®]

Told you. Later, QD.

Yea, lol. Well, are they struts or springs and shocks? I have a cutting wheel on my angle grinder ready

Shocks? Lolol.

Why would you cut them? Heating is much easier and much better on the back. Later, QD.

[mushroom_toy]

Fasttech just look for a cheap set of coilover sleeves, that way you can keep your stock springs. I picked up a set on here brand new for $20 for my track car. The set I got on my car were free. Just look around, you can make any set work, as long as both of the sleeves have holes big enough for the shock body.

[quickdodge®]

shock body.

Shocks? Lolol. Later, QD.

[Catnip]

No shocks?

[Woody150]

Nice car. My very first car was an 85 accord. But it was a hatchback. Grey with grey interior but the drivers seat had been replaced by a red one.. So it was "The Pimp" seat. By name only of course.

[FasTech]

No shocks?

Springs front and rear. But it does have struts in the front and shocks in the rear.

Hmm, the struts will be a problem... I don't have a spring compressor. Might be able to cut them on the car, just a little dangerous, lol

Why would you cut them at all? Heating produces a much better ride quality, plus you can heat them while they are on the car. Takes about an hour and you're set. Later, QD.

You are the only older person I've heard suggest heating springs

What about this tire "trick" Louis has always talked about?! LOL.


cut them inside a tire so when it pops it doesn't go anywhere. I dunno though. Now that I got a job I probably won't even worry about it. Just sell it cheap so I'll some extra money for the integra.

[quickdodge®]

No acetylene torch

The hail? I've never heated any springs with anything more than a $10 propane torch from Wal-Mart. Does the deed in about 30-60 minutes.

Damn, I literally heated the springs on my first car before you were born. 1986 was the year I heated the springs on my 1983 Honda Civic. Yessir. Been at this for a minute. My CVCC I have now is sitting on heated springs. Later, QD.Later, QD.

[J-ROCK]

Nah, I'm going to scrub them down tommorrow. I was running out of day light and I only test fitted the rear stuff because I have to take it all back out tommorrow to put the carpet in. But it already looks 23856165 times better. LOL.

[Me86Rob]

my wagon rocks heated springs

Whenever I can find the time. Work has had me busy 24/7 here lately. I guess I'm going to go with the heated springs thing. Really doesn't matter as long as it isn't like Louis' car bouncing around like its riding a wave everywhere I go. LOL.

Your wagon isn't low enough for me.
