Back in the Saddle!!
SVX #2 is back on the road and ready to go! After a year of suspension work, It finally got finished up and aligned yesterday. All I can say is "DAMN!! This car drives like new!"
Considering most of the car is new, I'm not surprised. Here is a quick list of what was changed: Front: Struts, springs, spring seats, strut mounts, sway bar bushings, sway bar links, inner tie rods, outer tie rods, ball joints. Rear: Struts, springs, spring seats, strut mounts, sway bar bushings, sway bar links, trailing links, lateral link bushings (all eight), rear bearings. Drivetrain: Transmission mount, driveshaft, differential mounts, differential cross-arm mounts, tires. It is so tight and stable. I can't believe it. Now all it needs is a paint job Doug
