HID's without projectors scatter light and blind oncoming drivers. They are ILLEGAL and extremely stupid.
Do it right.

Replaced the passenger side bearing hub and u-joint on the wife's '97 Sport. The old bearing had a lot of play in every direction, and the u-joint had no bearings left in it. When I pulled the axle, it flopped around and dust fell out. That was all that seemed to be holding it together, well that and the c-clips...

I'm thinking RE 3.5 Super-Ride. And use the remainders for bumpers.

Finally got my H4 conversion finished with upgraded harness, IPF housings, and Hella 80/100w bulbs. Best mod so far and would recommend to everyone! Pics in my build thread

The Peep was due for some maintenance rollin over 545400+km.
Trans fluid and filter change, grease and check all universals and steer gear. The brakes were a little irregular, perhaps adjusters are sticking. Seems the drums were full of mud, a quick hosing and some adjuster lubing, sharp as a tack now. Perhaps a little sealant at the eB cable entry. TCase and diffs get some fresh juice and while up there, the oil and filter. Should keep the Peep happy for the week end.
