And some more progress.

After forever of having my car lowered, I never adjusted the rear toe. No wonder my car drove like a steamy bag of moist dong.

Got to adjusting this POS. Maxed that joint out like a mod'***.

Ohhhhh.. I thought the title of the thread meant it would take a long time to build, not that you actually wanted to drift slowly. Lookin good!

Actually wondering because I tuck rim, and it constantly smacks the rear fender lip. Wouldn't want to spend $300 on overs, and then destroy them hahaha

Um. Yeah, I know that they don't just sit on the outside, and cause a giant wheel gap.

I plan to install them, and space my wheels out accordingly. NOT raising my car, so the wheel lip, and fender will basically be at the same point as they were before... Where they were slamming into eachother constantly. Don't want to bust up $300-500 over fenders for the sake of ride height.

But I do understand why you said that. There seem to be a lot of people that don't understand simple things around here.(me being one of them in some ways)

oh btw that rubbing issue of yours got me curious so i looked at my axles and i seem to have about an inch of clearance between it and the crown mount but mine isnt flipped like yours so if you put it on with the spike things facing down it may give you some room.

in the end its just rubber so its just rubber so its not a big deal if it rubs a little

So what's the correct way to install the pbm diff mount? I put the larger side on the bottom of the diff holding it up but I see others doing vise versa?
