    Yea I feel like you are peeping for it the right way so you will have a good upper hand.

    Jesus. That's a long test. I do so bad on tests. Although in the last year or so I have improved greatly on test taking just by making myself slow down and not get so antsy. Still rush some things so,etimes that bite me. Hate that. Nothing pisses me off more when I miss a question I KNOW and I marked it different due to wording or something. Not reading it thourghly basically.

    Oh well.

    6 hours would be just brutal though. I'm guess calculator and pencil only? Non stop? Is it 6 hour capped?

    You and your chewy. Need to quit that shit.

    The silence is bad though. I used to be like that in high school. I'd study with music and it would suck for tests. Stopped doing it and it helped.

    Just woke up! Haha was awake for 24 hours almost to the minute with homework and work yesteryday/this morning.

    :D was waiting for it... ummm. I cant take my alignment bullshit anymore!!! I've been to the alignment shop 3 times since the new arms went on. Derlin is just too much for the cam system. I've tried red loctite 115 lbs torque on the cams and tc cam gussets. It's just a shitty design with an aftermarket arm and bushing... get ready with your LT is all i'll say.

    This is what the solid lower mount looks like. Just keeps the lower arm in one spot solid. and you adjust alignment with the upper. WHich means i have to go to a hiemed upper... :goingcrazy: The change one thing and three more things need changing after holds very true with my latest front end changes.

    lol. Nothing really gets made "solid" It just gets setup so that the cam is gone and not allowed to slip around due to only being held in place by the top and bottom contacts in the oval hole that allows the arm to move back and forth. That solid mount tab replaces the cam and holds the lower arm in the same spot. Be nice to just set alignment once and not have to ever worry about it again unless something gets bent :anonymous:

    Well must be my fat heavy 2nd gen front end and my right foot... You'll be running poly bushings too which may help the sitch. I may try poly bushings before re-vamping my front end again...

    Ohhhhhh okay. I understand now.

    Yea I know that a tower cage is gonna be on my list this summer hopefully to prevent any frame tweaking..haha granted I'll still be limited by the rear setup but hopefully I'll have that setup done this year too. Maybe. See if Matt finishes his kit or I'll just make my own.

    True about the bushings. But you really think it makes that big a difference??

    My bro was home this week and snapped a few pics of the hibernating Evo :cool: He couldn't get a startup video since he couldn't find the keys :facepalm: Sorry for the bad phone camera quality... I need to get a good session with the car to get some worth pics and video of it!!! The wheel tire combo is the second set, i'm not a big fan but they get the car around town when not at the track.

    The majority of it. We have Danes trucks load and a few smaller ones from your trailer that still need some chainsaw love. Ill take care of that when the weather pops back up to 30 or so degrees.

    yes, but sadly not for free

    Yep, one of the reasons he's selling it... Had tons of fun with it and now it's just becoming a burden.

    Sweet, the weather is about to change rapidly here! Gonna be a bit of a shocker if it really changes as fast as they're saying it's going to...

    Yeah, they are extremely popular with the hunting crowd. Mainly bow hunters that need an ultralight shelter for a few guys. Their market was a huge factor in my decision to buy one. Hunters actually test and use their gear regularly in crappy conditions.
