Tighten the fittings before releasing the prdal. Just like bleeding with bleeders.

Took the tint off my markers, turns, tail and third brake light. Tired of that look. Put some clear coat on them.

Gotta run some water through it to clean out the flush fluids, supposedly. See what I can knock loose out of there before I get replacing parts and fill with coolant.

So I'm replacing my front suspension and ran into a snag. The whole for the steering stabilizer is beveled the wrong way I believe. It angles the bolt towards the axle but the shock wants to run to the front of the whole in the tie rod. Do I have the wrong part?

Steering stabilizer should be connected to the drag link

I always wondered about doing that along with hood vents. Just makes sense. Let us know how it works.
