    Stupid thing I did before I knew better...I coated my studs with WD40. Just thought it was a good idea. I since learned it wasn't a good Idea. Studs stay dry. Clean them up with a wire brush if they get ugly, but no added preservatives. Clean and dry. Luckily I didn't have to learn this the hard way.

    If you have to park in a space with other cars to the sides, park in the middle of the space and put collapsible cones at the entrance. Always remember, you are invisible! A parking spot you occupy looks empty and someone will roll into that space giving you new body accents.

    On the ground, Front camber can preload the lower nuts by 10 lbs ft. At least rotate the wheels 180° to even out the torque. Or tighten nutz off the ground. I use a wedge under the fronts. Parking brake holds the rears. Gorilla splined anti theft nuts in use.

    I have permission from the admin to advertise the 818 on the F5 forum and sent Dean a text. No response on that. They love that one and probably aren't ready to let it go yet.

    I hope to build a Crossflow and a VW 1600. If I could build them for $5k, I'll have a nice side hustle. Problem is shipping costs of getting heavy parts and lots of smaller parts together in one place. Where I live, these parts are scarce. I would be better off on East or West coast.

    I wouldn't go lower. Maybe the miles on 30psi stressed the brackets?

    Are you running low tyre pressure around 15-20psi? If you are running standard pressures of 30-35 psi, you are not absorbing enough road.

    I've lost the URL, but there is someone who is casting the top side BDR components. Like the Twin Cam, if you must have a BDR, you can still build one.

    I hope my Prime membership gets me a pretty nurse

    Four years old, should be 4.25 PCD, but you might want to confirm it.

    Notary Public?

    Don't know. I didn't ask. Mostly talked about the Factory 5 kit they have (T65 Ford GT?). I'll give these guys a few more days to respond then I'll call again. Last time.

    I'm getting pictures from the family. I'm waiting to get some more and settle on an E mail account. It's slow moving. I'm not doing anything without a manufacturer's plate photo.

    I didn't say it was smooth, lol

    I just talked to the sellers. Cathy and Dean are real. (Birkin?) just ran a hill climb. Too many toys. Letting go. Octogenarians needing help with getting pictures and info to the web. I'm helping them get on here.
