    Bought a 16 month old used battery at LKQ for $32 to put in the yellow 90 LPlus.
    The eight year old battery in her is starting to show signs of eminent failure.


    Sorry for the accidental double post..

    Yeah, I've seen them done that way permanently. Worked fine. They just used LONG universal 2.5" springs to do it.

    Nope, Usually not, but it also won't hurt anything, either.

    They're sitting like that because they're on a rough floor of my old camper I'm tearing down slowly... wanted the weight as close to the bottom as possible so they wouldn't fall over

    The sleeves can sit down there when installed and it doesn't bother nothin, though. I'll move the adjustable perches up to match the correct ride height for whatever engine ends up in there.

    Ummmmmm I don't think the adjusters and springs are supposed to go all the way down to the clevis.

    Built adjustable front coilovers from Espelir lowering springs [Civic], cheap coil adjusters and new OE front struts. [I painted the springs and put a couple coats on the struts after the pic was taken]. Took me about 20 min with the grinder and the cutoff wheel.

    Finished up installing my power windows. Yay, now I don't have to lean over to roll the passenger window up and down.

    My Matt Dickmeyer header came today and it is beautiful. If it's half as good as it looks, I'm going to be a happy man.

    Washed and waxed my car and its stablemate.








    Oh, and finally installed the spoiler I've been sitting on for about a year.










    It's been so long since I've washed and waxed my car that it soaked up the wax and still needs more. I'll try to wax again in the morning.

    Got one of the two power window motors mounted and wired, but in the process must have knocked the wiring for the power lock loose on the drivers door because it no longer functions.

    Going to have to glue the gears since the outer gear adapter keeps slipping off the inner gear adapter.
