Well it's been forever and a lot is going on.

Latest photo's of the hatch on the ground.






Well I was getting sick of the motor in the hatch and took the opportunity to trade a buddy of mine motors.

Just got done taking the motor out


I began to pull the rest of the harness through for the tuck.


new motor

nothing to pretty right now.

Got the harness inside and I will begin to take it apart and clean it up.


Also got a few new things for the update.

Mag-blue Re30's 16x7 +42


I now have Nitto Neo gens 205/40/16's on them and ready to be put on.

Alex brackets


I also did a rear disk conversion not to long ago. I picked it up off a buddy of mine (joshualeet).

When I was putting them on, I decided I could use some new LCA's. I went with F&F polished.


It is absolutely freezing out now after all this warm weather we have been having. Updates will be more steady as the weather warms up.

KY ftl!
