    Did you already have the billies and then added the 884s later? Ive got 885s laying around and can’t decide to throw em on my billies or get new ones. My billies now have around 65k on them

    Nah I bought the billies mounted in the 884's from @EatSleepTacos. They stayed in the garage for a while and then put them on. In your place I would put the 885 on the old billies and save that money for another mod. If you don't abuse them they can last a while! My stock blue and yellow billies have 157k miles on them and where still good, just the lower bushing were getting worn. And billies are warrantied against leaks if I am not mistaken. Keep them until they leak, then get replacement under warranty!

    For sure! The biggest improvement was on the rear, replaced the stock leafs with 2" blocks with a new oem lead pack + 2" aal and bilstein. Changed the ride for the best! The front now seems to be maybe a little stiffer, but a good stiffer! Really happy with how it turned out!

    Good deal!!! I'm leaning toward the Headstrong 2" coils with 5100s set to zero.

    Oh and you might be interested the frame rust warranty has been extended to 2010 model years in Canada finally. I took my truck in for inspection today. It passed but fyi they expect them to rust

    So!

    Honda Fit sway bar end link, done!
    Taco cabin air filter, done!
    Taco spark plug, done!
    Taco PCV valve, done!

    No missfire, no back fire, no CEL, no oil dripping on the garage floor, and no parts left on the work bench, it is a success!

    You are not the only one!
    I also lost my gf key nut to take off her wheels. I had to borrow a special tool from a mechanic buddy who was kind enough to let me take it home. The I threw all those lock nut in the trash and put normal nuts. Screw that, who's gonna steel steelies? Haha
