    Easy money bags.

    I don't need to drop that kind of money into her. Especially with being in the middle of buying a house. I have belstiens in the front and that'll do for the rears too.

    I have been running Viking Coilovers and Double Adjustable shocks.

    Here are the rear shocks.
    I got my front coilovers and rears for 1000.

    I have been thinking of what's next on the old car. I still haven't evacuated the a/c system and installed the new dryer yet.

    I need to weld up my founders subframe connectors that I have had for months.

    Before winter hits I'm going to take it to the track again. I think mid to low 12s is possible if I can get out of the hole (now that I have the 6 speed and things are shifting properly)

    My interior is 95% complete, still need to figure out something for/with the seats.

    This winter I am buying and installing new shocks in the rear, it rides rougher than a truck even when I'm creeping down the dirt road. It's unbearable.

    Also I want to get an e cutout and ditch the dynomax. I love the 2otl cruising but at idle it's just too quiet.

    I only laughed at your jokes to keep you from going into a downward spiral of deep dark depression of no return.

    Ordered an ac delco through amazon (cheaper than rockauto)I didn't evacuate it, just wanted to go the cheap route to ensure no leaks and that the compressor worked (haven't used it in years).Once I get the new dryer on (should be in next week) Im going to have work evacuate it, put a vaccume on it to ensure no leaks then charge it.

    Took the words out of my mouth. Would hate to see you ruin the compressor because of it.

    rockauto ranges them from $12-$22 does it matter what brand?
    I would say no. If they have Delco I'd get that though.

    Vacuum pump. Well, I hope it was evacuated.

    Well yeah that would be great! Less leg work for me.

    about time you're back, it was getting boring laughing at my own jokes.

    Got the ac working. The compressor keeps kicking on and off. A quick google says its low on freeon. I put 2 12oz cans in. I don't have my buddy's gauge usually use. How many cans does it take approximately?
