Fronts are done. Things are going relatively smoothly. just out there muscling things around to get holes to line up. I have absolutely no idea how the alignment is going to look once everything is back on the ground but I think it’s at least relatively close. I think it’s about time to crack open a beer while working on the rears.

I just changed the oil in the El Camino and adjusted the drivers side door so it will actually close. I still need to swap in a new coolant sensor and oil pressure sensor. Looks like rain now though I'm on break.

I've gotta figure out what struts to order for my STi. Quarantine maintenance is definitely a good time to do that job one of these weekends. Considering the purchase inspection said bad struts 40,000 miles ago lol.

Riding on springs! I got KYB AGX. Never used them before so we shall see. The rears   are being a pain in my ass though

It seems far easier to find strut replacements for the wrx. Idk why Sti struts are much less common. Way too many coilover options but I really don't want to go that route. Refurbished oem seems to be the way to go!

Yeah I didn’t feel like doing the coil over thing. Take a look at feal. They have some struts but run very expensive. I am switching out their Max travel mostly because I don’t like being lifted and the spring matchup was bad but overall a good product

Yeah about $500 for the set after the core refund. Not terrible really I guess.
