  • So it's looking like the wheels should arrive at around the beginning of March! So the countdown begins...

    Haha, nah, I think I'll keep 'em around for spares. Sorry! If I ever feel like getting rid of them, you're first in line, though.

    Thanks, guys! It'll have a hair more camber in the rear (like another -.75 or -1), with the new setup, so I'm anxious to see how that goes. The front will be significantly different, however.

              Just a little...

              Should have some Spoon mirrors coming before long! I'm only using the driver's side, so if anyone wants a legit Spoon passenger side mirror, you know where to find me.
              Otherwise, I'll hang it on a wall or something.

                    Glad I influenced you to get an EG! Can't go wrong with these bad boys.
                    As for the lowness, as long as you have extended tophats and cut strut towers, you're pretty much good to go! Of course you might wanna play with damping and spring rates/lengths to get the optimal (least damaging) ride, but most people don't go through that trouble, so it is what it is. Haha

                    The only axle-related issues I've had are destroyed CV boots and axles hitting the frame (which is now resolved). Pretty much normal expected stuff.

                    Alignment... I have not gotten one yet! I got one a looong time ago (when it was a few inches higher), but that's going to be the first thing I do once I get everything adjusted to fit the Meisters. I've had all new tie rods and bushings and whatnot sitting in my tool box for over a year, so it's definitely time. It's truly scary to drive at this point! Haha

                    • did you notch the frame ... is so did you take pics ?

                      • grinder with flapper wheel, YOu dont really have to notch the actual frame it more like a thick double sided piece of sheet metal underneath the frame rail that your axle and tie rod will hit

                              This (see below) is exactly right!

                              You order some CRs yet?! Apparently it's the primetime for EG owners to get Work wheels! Haha
