    On another note, I just bought 6 litres of Amsoil 5w30 for $49.68. How does that compare?

    If you find them too high you can take out an overload! Finding them too high is better than finding them too low.

    My buddy used provincial spring shop.

    I'll see how that compares. Is that taxes and shopping included in Canada in funds?

    That is over the counter at the CFB Halifax auto club.

    I know Provincial Spring Shop, they are on St Albans Street. I used to work for Edmonds Landscaping, around the corner.

    This sounds very compelling. I think I will get a band aid from Provincial, and upgrade as soon as I can afford the whole OME package.

    Better than what I'm paying, 77.80 for 6 liters of Signiture Synthetic. Its expensive stuff. Did you get the Signiture oil or the OE or XL line?

    Also figured I'd post the creep shot I got of maxpower today, haah

    Also what is the cheapest possible legal bumper option? I would rock a verry shitty tube bumper.

    Also today I sold my former daily driver, a 2007 Corolla. I went to take the taco to work and it wouldnt start. Got a drive to and from work. I beat the starter and now its good as new! I'll still rebuild it when I get a spare minute.

    Good from far but far from good close up. Shes been through some battles with dirt and scuffs. But I still like it!

    Truck is going to Provincial on Friday to have the broken leaf replaced and another added. I'll let you all know how this experiment goes.

    Think I might still swap the shocks today, though I can't imagine there is any good reason I shouldn't just hand them to the spring shop.

    Well I'm sure you've got my truck beat looks wise, i know how to fake body pannels like you wouldn't believe! Haha. I'll post up some pics tomorrow of it. Today was my first time using it as a commuter. It's funny how turning radius doesn't really matter when you can curb jump.
    I'm interested to hear your experience! My friend made his own packs out of their individual leafs if that makes any sense.
