    Abby comes from Latin

    "Abi en pace" is a Latin variant for "Depart in peace"

    Another variant is "Vade en pace"

    But Abby sounds better.

    Oakie fitting the fenders but they're back on. 3.25" bs and I rub the frame at full lock but its not terrible and I don't rub anywhere else. And almost no poke which i like and the tires look perfect with the fenders. Im pumped.

    Also swapped the oe cv seal for a napa seal and the leak seems to have stopped.

    Equity (in the movie's context it means Justice but there about a half dozen other words that mean the same, some probably would have been better)

    Truth

    I think they used Aequitas / Veritas because they rhyme.

    Anyone got any good driveshaft shop recommendations in the east bay?
    Need to get mine shortened and lengthened and maybe re-tubed thicker depending on cost.

    Not east bay but if youre willing to make the drive, Steve at South Bay Drive Line in San Jose has been good. You might hear mixed reviews from others but I've had a good experience with them and have heard them recommended by a few others as well.
