Winter Projects
What are your plans??
Mine are:
1. new shocks front and rear - Bilstein sports.
2. replace the front suspension bushings and mono balls - Elephant Racing products.
3. picked up a rebuilt steering rack that I will put in while the front suspension is apart.
4. spacers for rear wheels - lower priority.
5. lower the car just a little.
6. check the clutch. Got some 50,000 kms on the clutch and it has a really soft pedal feel starting this summer. I adjusted it to spec, but no change in feel (cable, fork, bearings all new when clutch replaced). I will check the return spring and pedal cluster this winter. If I find nothing, I will run it until she slips.
5. usual maintenance stuff - oil, valve adjust, check brakes and flush fluid, adjust front wheel bearings, check all under carriage bolts for tightness and inspect tub for possible cracks.
6. if I have time and the weather is OK, power wash the underside of the vehicle.
And, home reno projects - foyer, dining room and living room this winter.
Hmmmm......I can honestly say I prefer getting P-car grease under my nails!!
