patsbimmer1 Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 I usually spray everything down with a nice salt water solution to help build immunity in the metals just like you would give a flu shot to a person. It works wonders! jc43089 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaiserRolls Posted December 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2015 Hopefully getting out today to take the rest of the brake lines in the rear out as well as the rear sway bar. Bought some face shields so I can clean the entire bottom of the car and then re-undercoat it. The kbs/por-15 will be for the subframes/trailing arms/suspension crap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaiserRolls Posted December 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2015 Scraped, sanded & wire-wheeled my way into being the next face of a class action lawsuit for mesothelioma tonight in the garage. Most of the junk is "prepped" for undercoating spray bombs. So much dust x__x im actually pretty happy with how not shitty the underside of this car is thanks to the previous leaky m50. All the hard mounting points for everything are actually in good shape DrLeadFoot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaiserRolls Posted January 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2016 Got around to cleaning up the front subframe I bought from ray and the rear subframe that's been in my car for forever. (I have reinforcements for both) I will update with photos shortly. It was another awful & dusty day but hopefully it will be worth it. this is how I pushed the power flex bushings out after snaking some wd-40 in between the subframe and bushing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaiserRolls Posted January 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2016 Anyone have recommendations for coils? I've been leaning towards CAtuned & have spoken with Collin about his... Anything else I should look at? Goals are not stants low, but will want it to be adjustable & stiffer than the crap I have. I figured coils over hr/billies because I could get different rates for the extra weight up front. I'll be running stock sway bars as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
