I am guessing that's also why the front tires have like 1/4" less tread depth, his alignment is probably hosed to hell and back. "custom" steering indeed. And that thing didn't pass inspection - the sticker is green, which means it's (at best) a 2012 sticker. Could also be from 2007 or 2002.

I've never touched or even read up on leaf spring suspension in my life so somebody please correct me if I'm wrong here... I'm almost entirely certain that isn't the type of clamps you need for leafs and at some point is probably going to sheer through the threads.

I think, but am not sure, that you are looking at a little ubolt used to keep the leafs from fanning out, not the one that holds it to the axle. Which indicates he may not have torqued the axle ubolts fully...

1500quidporsche posted:yeah definitely the the U bolts. Don't leaf springs usually have a Ubolt where the bolt intersects the top of the U? Are you talking about this?  Because that's what Kastein is talking about. And it's so far down the triage list of problems on that truck it's hardly worth mentioning. It's also the only shiny thing on the truck, so it's probably been recently broken and replaced or he just realized he needed it. But still really, really far down the list of things wrong here.

A car is terrible when someone half-asses it. This took dedication. Someone pushed it through all the way through the darkness and into the light. You don't have to like it, but you have to admire the dedication it takes to complete a job like that.

Are we still doing front end mods? A SN-95 new edge (99-04) mustang with a S197 (05-09) front end. There were no other pics unfortunately.

I kinda like the idea of the Lambo, the colors are wrong but if it was gray with light blue highlights it would actually look pretty cool.
