 Posted: Wed Feb 24, 2010 6:19 pm Post subject: The 8.8 is going in! |
 |
|
I will be putting it in this sunday the 28th, could use a few hands. I plan on starting on it around 1:00pm and will be working on it at my shop in Currie. I know Super-duperdan expressed interest in joining in the effort. For those of you who will be coming from J-ville, it is only a 50 minute ride.
Anyone else interested in a learning experience?

Sorry man. Probably gonna help out Jeff do Stacey's 8.8 install tomorrow, and then more than likely going to the track Sunday. Good luck though.

To be honest, it probably wasn't even 2 hours. We stopped for some food in the beginning. It really was extremely easy.

Point taken...I was very careful when spraying them a few months ago with the dakness, but they are still lighter than GTS covers and that's kind of the look i'm going for. Good thing i'm a State Safety Inspector...My cars pass every year, no problems yet! LOL!

finished the install after over ten hours invested. Nothing is ever simple with me. I don't understand.

Ten hours? Did you work by yourself? What did you have trouble with if you don't mind me asking?

That would probably be the pinion bearing I had to reuse. They can easily get damaged when removing them which is why I wanted you to get a new one. |
