Were these the California Gulls that the Beach Boys and David Lee Roth sang about?

No, this is kind of Helter Skelter, but wouldn't be surprised like my rookie year FR-S, the Topanga area had a bad splat that took a while to recover. Actually, with major Federation assistance

Why not just purchase some if you really want to go that route? A quick google search brought up a few different brands.

Do you want to risk driving across the country with the pucks in your springs? I hope not......

Why would you try to drive a car cross country if you already have trouble getting it out of your driveway? Depending on the route you take you could run into worse weather/road conditions that your car might physically not be able to overcome.

Sorry for not providing much help, but I just feel there has to be a better way to go about this. Maybe even just flying
hot damn you are all over the place

I am ordered set just to have in the car in case I need it towed. Had a set for my dropped lancer but never had to use them so really never thought about it again until you made this thread.

What? You never spilt Van Houtte coffee in your ride?


Just something to be aware of as I would trade my Beach Boy's Vinyl without a flinch.
