You know riding on springs and shocks was killing me more than anyone Austin haha. I might actually have to raise it about a half inch because of the area I live in.

This thing def. needs a new steering rack and an alignment ASAP....

is the rack really bad or just the bushings?

It has been binding pretty bad lately (even just turning around in parking lots). There seems to be too much movement on the inside too... I can shake my wheel while its in the air and feel a lot of play in the actual rack. Bushings are poly and not very old so i'm pretty sure its not them.

I finally decided to do some work to the car today.

Started by yanking the whole front end off!

Had enough dirt in my fenders to plant something...

Wish I had that much angle when its on the ground.

Decided to take some time with a hammer and bang out all the spots I rub and or will rub when it goes lower...

Took the alternative (temporary) route to relocate my wiring harness' (did the other side the same)...

It does make the fender not sit right on the other side though where the main harness is. Im going to have to try and flatten the harness out a bit more.

Threw on the new fenders with the help of my dad. It was a bitch since the whole front is a bit tweaked and he had to straighten it...

threw on my B-magic front and my good rims...

the front still needs some adjusting but its definitely a huge improvement to how that ish was put together before...

It was dark by the time we were done so here is a teaser I guess...

Should be getting a new clutch, light flywheel, and a new steering rack soon....

and yes patrick it needs to go lower in the front.

Drift cars are hoes so you must treat them as such.
