Yeah you'll have to keep after all the hardware for a bit until they stop adjusting on you. It will end eventually!

Merry Christmas guys.

I have been lurking due to some health issues but wanted to pop in for Christmas wishes.

BTW, Dec. 14th was Monkey Day. Happy belated Monkey day!!!
I will leave this in it's honor.

Just a suggestion for you..... There is A LOT of flex in those spots.

I see upper control arm bushings. Is that what you meant? JDP has diff/UCA kit for $85.

thahemp · 12-24-2013, 02:55 PM

Oops. That's TA bushings not diff. The more I talk to birm, the more money I spend.

I've ran as much as 1 1/2" difference, so I think it fluctuates between cars.
My car when I first went with my aftermarket street wheels were 24" on rear and 22" on front. The tires on front made up about 1/2" and it never threw an ABS light.

Next I went to a 26.5" rear DR, so I literally went from a 24" wheel with a very thin tire, to an 18" Vette wheel with a 26.5 tire on the rear.
At first my car didnt like it. I turned all the nanies off and then she calmed down.
Once it got used to it, no more issues, until I swapped back, it would act up for a sec, then it would be fine again. It was funny, kinda like breaking a horse!!

thahemp · 12-24-2013, 03:24 PM

JDP and FSP made a killing on me this month. Now I need some of those vette wheels too.

ssmike · 12-24-2013, 03:34 PM

Merry Christmas to you too T! And also to all you crazy guys in the Help Desk!

Well my tires are 28.4 in rear and 27.01 in the front and I threw a damn code now my car is sluggish I guess its cause of the security system.
