UhFive Build...

[UhFive]

This is not going to be a very fast process, but here is the start...






Wifey got tired and didn't really get any pictures of us reinstalling everything...but as you can tell there is less than a two finger gap.



Dropped the car off at Sears, and she came back with new wheels and tires...
SE-R Wheels, General G-Max tires 235/45/18

That's the wife's Altima in the background.

Sweeet. Those bad boy should settle a little more.
You forgot to narrate the pics.
Pic 1. What up guys, the names... UhFive and today we are going to pimp my Ride!
Pic 2. Up she goes! no more jeep status height!
Pic 3. After I couldn't remove the spring by simply yanking on it i ripped apart the whole assembly with my man muscles!
Pic 4. Here we are compressing the spring!
Pic 5. Air tools really helped speed up the compression process with the Teins.
Pic 6. Wifey got tired. But she can confirm there is less than 2 finger clearance
Pic 7. Getting our Swole on!

Nice. A DIY. So a question for you. I'm getting ready to install coils on my coupe. What advice do you have on breaking bolts? Pb blaster and patience? I don't want to snap any bolt heads and cry as I bore out my bushings. Thanks for any advice you've got.

If they'r bad, at least PB blaster, maybe some good old heat if it comes down to it !

Heat is the part I'm trying to avoid.

I am 24 (s*** 1/4 of my life is over already!) and she is 22...a little young I suppose, but guess that's what happens when you meet the right girl.

I only had an issue with one bolt, I found something called "Liquid Wrench". I sprayed some on, scratched my head for a second, and then tried again. It just came right off!

Here's an ultra-top secret, promise not to tell ? If you want to avoid a possible problem with bolts/etc that can sieze, put a lil anti-seize on them !! I even use it on the hub when I mount a new rotor, don't yah hate it when you have to bang the sh*t out of it to get it off ?

Nice car! Not just saying that because it is the same color as mine. Haha!
