    Are you hiding an old Z car in your garage?

    It's an Alfa Romeo Spyder. Previous owner ran a shop years ago and some military dude dropped it off for some kind of work to get done to it. Been on stands for about 15 years

    as hilariously poorly built as alphas are, I bet that'd be a cool car to have running

    Me and a couple of friends have joked about stuffing a big V8 in it and making it a drift car :burnrubber:
    Guess I'll be ordering them next paycheck :spending:

    Got gusseted spindles from @glorifiedwelder and new hubs from @05Taco4x4 installed. Went through some bullshit, old hubs didn't want to come off. Then after getting everything put back together I had tear it all apart because the stupid dust shields were rubbing on the rotors, and then a hard brake line on one of the calipers decided to break and the fitting decided to round out (thank god for vice grips) now I all hear are the tires on the road instead of a bad hub droning REALLY loud. Now for some wheeling this weekend :mudding:20200720_181852.jpg 20200720_174916.jpg 20200722_211559.jpg 20200723_213302.jpg 20200723_213250.jpg

    Dewit. A few trucks in the STL crowd have it and it's worth it.

    You have a 2017. Should be able to make it work. The 2018+ have the radar cruise deal so the mirror/windshield is complicated

    It is a tighter fit for the 3rd Gen and is more appropriate for the 2nd Gen.


    I told them after I got mine installed that they should market it to the 3rd Gens. Even with some hacking, it will fit TSS-P Tacos.

    Same. There's a million Tacos out there that could benefit.
