    Got a stack of parts for it



    In the pic are 4 quick struts, obviously, tie rod ends, and front LCAs. Not pictured is the replacement rack that came yesterday.

    Hope to get everything done over the long weekend.

    You'll never go back after 4x4 lol. Unless you're more into looks than a little bonus functionality.

    I got tons of work to do on cars when it warms up, it's not even funny. That's what happens when every car in the household and neighbors is 12 years old, or older

    I look at it like this. I am undecided on how long I intend to keep the car so with a whole new suspension I know it will be good for many years to come if I keep it, or if I decide to sell it the new parts will be helpful in that regard.

    The next weekend that Lee works days, I'm taking over the garage and taking wheels off the SS and giving them a good cleaning all over and polish. I really wish I could have found some cheap LTZ wheels to run during the winter. This was only the 2nd winter the car had seen since brand new. I'd like to preserve the ss wheels as much as possible.

    Started the trans cooler install:



    I considered doing a write-up, but I'm way to impatient for that. Probably a parts list and some pictures when I'm done though.

    Driving to work today going about 65km/hr the RPM needle plummeted to the pin and didn't move again for 5 minutes. The TCS light became illuminated as well.

    Car continued to shift as normal and no other adverse effects. happened? At the next light I turned it off and back on and everything was fine for the rest of the drive.

    Thoughts on this before I post an actual thread on this stupid subject? Car is a 2000 GTP

    you can drive it, but expect it to just randomly stall at some point.
