Control arms and GIANT 3" MAF:  UUC Brake Lines (Thanks Chris!!)  All the crap piled up in my apartment, I miss having a garage!  __________________

How much were they? | http://understeer.com/onlinestore-brakes.shtml 6-line set from understeer.com. I hope they work! $125/shipped. Quote: | Originally Posted by Panzer_M Btw, those are Meyle arms??

Actually I'm guessing the CABs are going to be the hardest, but I got a tip from one of my fabicator buddies. Basically put the CABs in the freezer overnight and heat up the bracket, the CABs should slide right in while they're cold. __________________

I just cleaned out the living room of my suspension parts. It's freaky, when I saw those pics, I thought it was my living room. I have the exact same carpet. | | | | | 02-13-2006, 11:09 PM | #10 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Madison, WI Posts: 121 |
Yeah, I'd be down for renting/sharing for a good working space... I have a carport to park in (helpful since I don't drive the Ti in the snow) but working in it sucks royally... I can't keep my tools out there, and 28 degrees with wind is just evil.. | | | | | 02-13-2006, 11:12 PM | #11 | | doesn't care about you. Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Denver, CO Posts: 3,925 |

It never gets colder than 65 degrees, but the light is really dim and there are no electrical outlets. Plus, I can't really use any kind of smelly cleaners/chemicals because the fumes would kill my first floor neighbors. __________________

6-line kits fit: 3-series 1992-1999 E36 - M3, 328, 325, 318 (not ti) from Understeer.com...eh....well I'll see how yours goes.  I used 95 M3 CAB, has them pressed at the shop, and instaled the whole front suspension on a Saturday morning. | | | | | 02-13-2006, 11:23 PM | #14 | | Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2004 Location: SoCal Posts: 549 |
