Amazing. Getting it aligned was really really hard.
First we took it to one shop...car was too low to get up alignment ramp.
Took it too another shop....car was too low for *THAT* alignment ramp.
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
Took it to another shop....refused alignment due to broken suspension.
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
Researched car parts, then ordered car parts
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
Waited for car parts
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
Bought tools
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
Went to America to collect car parts
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
Put front car parts on and drove around.
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
Put rear car parts on WITH ZIPPY
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
AND YESTERDAY FINALLY...AFTER TWO MONTHS WE GOT AN ALIGNMENT
FUCK YA. I WORKED HARD FOR THAT ALIGNMENT!
Now to do everything else I wanted to do the car this summer...like fix the rust and so forth.

nothing. they simply havent shown up yet -.-'. I sent them to my dad's company PO box in buffalo, and the guy to pick them up isnt going there until thursday.
also, the guy i sent my ABS ring to be made at has no idea when he'l get around to it. hes a family friend and is doing it for free, which I understand...but at this point my patience is wearing thin and even though getting this free would keep me under budget by like a dollar, I'm seriously considering just taking it to someone else and telling them: get this shit done today.
I need the ABS ring to be on the wheel when I take it to get balanced. so I cant start until I have that ring.

Oh I see. Yeah I ended up almost wearing out my front tires completely due to going so long without the alignment due to all the delays and work that needs to be done. If I had been really smart, I would have put my borked winters on the front (lol ghetto) and destroyed them instead of my good tires... live and learn. Ughhhh.
I totally get your feels, when you're just itching to get on with the work and there are other delays.

Plus as we know: Winter is coming. I wasn't planning a suspension swap at all, so this also set my projects back of fixing my rust and stuff.
