my subframe install

First off I would like to thank everyone who I contacted about getting just 5 lug hubs from them, and they tried to charge me $200+, or people who said brakes or calipers were extra...

I PAYED $75 for the whole 5lug/LSD subframe

with that said... the install wasnt that hard at all, the only problem we had was getting the donor cars driveshaft to stop from spinng which was easily done with the help of a 12in flat head screw driver.

Way to kick *** and take names. Are you gonna clean and paint the bad boy before you reinstall it? Maybe change out the bushings? You got a good deal for $75

the reason why the neptunes do it is because of star trek. no offense but you guys are posers. why would you do something because someone does it and have no idea what you are doing.

The only difficult part of putting the rear in is the weight....good god that thing is heavy as well as awkward for putting it in the small area you have to deal with.

who the hell cares about my grass not being cut, its not even my damn yard. also how are you gunna call him a poser for doing that, do you know his background? no, if you did you would know that he does know them. probably has nothing to do with the recording studio across the street, or him DJing..


anyways the install was simple..
