    I'm not that low to be tearing up my oil pan. But I am low enough to rip up my tires with my fenders. It sounds like the devil passing gas...

    The real killer are the ruts that trucks make, those will eat anything under your car alive.
    Yup, thats what finished off the cross brace on my car. I'm sure I've done some good damage to the new one as well. Makes cool noises and sparks though ahahah

    It's time you post good pics of your driveway.

    You'll wear through it eventually.

    started a topic The Oil Pan Thread

    The Oil Pan Thread

    Well, this section is about getting the most out of your suspension. How about a thread where the suspension gets the most out of you?

    I just had my first oil pan incident. I didn't destroy it, but I have a 3" hairline crack. I just lathered it up with some JB Weld... we'll see how she holds up. I'll have a pic up in a bit.

    So, how about you guys? Austin has like 3 hanging on his wall.
Working...
