This week, I installed ARP extended studs, SPC rear LCAs, and the AP Sprint BBK.

I did the BBK on the street, since I don't have a garage. Or driveway.




Super tight clearance:




I took it in for an alignment afterwards, and raised my ride height about 0.6 inches. Then it got treated to a good cleaning.

Meaty.

This isn't a joke. A guy drove right into a retaining wall on the freeway less than 70 meters in front of me yesterday, he had jinked a hard left into the wall at 70 mph. I was fortunate not to be following too close, and had a clear lane to escape into as his car bounced back into the lane backwards.

Turns out he was on his phone playing some game.

Dropped mine off for a much needed head unit and back up camera! Bye bye little stock radio.

Any special tools to install the rear studs? I did the fronts on my car, haven't started the rear yet.

Thanks. They're 17x9 +35. Camber is about -2 front, -1.7 rear. I actually wish I had gotten something with a higher offset. Before I raised my ride height, I used to rub on the passenger fender under compression at the track.

No additional tools beyond what's required for the fronts. You do have to remove the hub, which can be tricky with the E-brake. I let a more experienced friend handle that part.

Edit: you'll need a 32mm socket to break the axle nut. An impact wrench helps a lot.

Actually did these a couple of days ago but just getting around to posting it now.The handles are Duplicolor Custom Wrap,which matches the shift knob I did earlier.The vents are print and cut vinyl that I made at the shop i work at.

BTW,if you guys are looking for a substitute for Plastidip,I highly recommend the Duplicolor Custom Wrap.The stuff is pretty great.Better than the Rustoleum brand wrap.
