    LOL! Yeah, I can't argue there. But we've been flirting with freezing temps for the last month, so I figured why bother melting off the softer rubber before the cold hits? Typically I wait for snow in the forecast, and I do the tires the night prior.

    But this time? Nope. Bam. Cold front. And an unexpected snowfall on warm(ish) ground led to pretty good icing.

    Oooops.

    Yes very good eye. Chompino you need to redo the whole uca install. You need to route the reservoir line above the total chaos arm. Otherwise it will rip out. I don't think you can fit the reservoir through without removing that. Don't drive until its done it could ruin your coilovers. Hope its not too late

    Thanks for the heads up guys!! I think it looks worse in the picture because it was on the lift and the wheels weren't mounted. I followed the instructions that came in the box and also noticed that other examples I saw online were installed the same way:

    I drove it home (about 40 miles) and everything seemed fine, but I'll double check before I drive again. Again, thanks for letting me know!

    Ok well now that you say it was on the lift that's ok I guess send those pics to king cust service tomorrow and ask if that's normal. Maybe they would throw in a set of longer lines. Looks awesome I'm sure you will be stoked on them. Good first mod also

    I haven't been past AAA since Arby's took over Foster's.
    Wife said Arby's was gone (moved to Ramona & 71)... what's in there now?

    Havne't had much reason to visit that center since Sam's left, lost all reason to go when Hobby Town left.
    We rarely hit Target, when we do it's because Costco/Sam's/Walmart didn't have something and then we hit the one on Pipeline.

    I'm just off of Central & Walnut.

    arbys was here for a while i think theres a place called "titan burger" over priced from what ive been told...
    i moved here after the sams club moved (only reason i know it used to be over here is because we did the job on the doors where it was at to the store thats there now and all of the them where marked "sams" when we removed them...

    youre not that far, i always go to that winchells coffee...or the oreillys
