Ok I think I'm ready.

[lowridah313]

So in prep for AW, I've been doing some maintanance and upgrades. Here's the list:
- new front brakes (pads and rotors)
- regreased front wheel bearings
- new rear brakes (shoes and spring kit)
- new Rancho RS5000s all around (extended rears)
- alignment
- new CB antenna set up
- new cat-back 2.5" Magnaflow exhaust
- oil change
- fuel filter
- Oh yeah, and a 2" BL. Thanks Simon!

What has everyone done to get ready?

BL, front bumper relocation, 33's, skids, Knock sensor relocation, rear brakes, rear bumper with tire carrier, secret mod, speed beads...

I THINK that's it so far...

How do you like your Magnaflow?

[lowridah313]

Well its just a Magnaflow muffler, I had the pipes made at the shop. I love the sound of it, I can't stay off the happy pedal.

-new exhaust gaskets
-oil change
-Some other things that I should be doing right now but am procrastinating. ( Like re wiring lights, cleaning it...)

I still haven't cleaned it after my road trip but its been sitting most of this time anyways.

Noticed any HP gains?

[lowridah313]

I think it has a little more torque, but not really a concern of mine.

Yeah, I found mine breathed a bit better on the highway, but aside from that, what you notice the most was the difference in sound...

And that tone will get a bit deeper once the muffler has been "seasoned" a bit...

You realize that the last post in this thread was over 2 years ago right?

I'm not entirely sure that I remember what I was even talking about! My best guess is that I was referring to balancing beads, but I can't say for certain.

[Miner]

Yeah, digging up old threads on "Beads" and "Balancing".

[lowridah313]

I had to take a second look, I said to myself "when is the last time I started a thread?"

Talk about blowing the dust off this one! lol
