well, I ended up getting a late start today and only got the rear suspension and sway bar on before dinner.
I just got back from checking it out, and man does the swaybar ever make a difference - it's way stiffer. Probably a good 15 lbs heavier too.
I guess I'll tackle the front tomorrow. I jacked the front up just to check all the bolts and they are seized pretty good. Sprayed them up and hoping I can crack them all loose tomorrow
I'm not sure about the downpipe because our welder is out of gas, and the tank is already gone to get refilled. But if I have time I guess I'll get started on the knock sensors as well. Gotta take advantage of all the tools and garage space while I can!
