Default My exciting night

Hmm, this doesn't look right?


Slammed, s0n.



Got Camber? I do.


AH HA!


Good thing I have a lift!



Anyone else have this happen? Looks like it's time for a new trailing arm. Yay!

Oh it's all good. Alldata says its only a 1.2 hour job. Shouldn't take me any longer then that. Plus we get hookups from the honda dealer in town (I work at toyota). Oh and forgot to mention, the tow truck hooked me up since we send a lot of business his way

Dirty, good thing you're okay though. Man, i'm glad i brought over the civic from Cali, the cars out here will probably have the same thing happen over time because of the salt. Oh well, Good luck. Nice civic by the way.
