      Can't do much if the car has to go to paint and it is too far for me to go work on it during the week lol

      It is also easier to get this on the road than to bend the front of my Del Sol back to shape alone

            The front of the e34 is mostly held together with bailing wire after tying the core support to a tree and putting the car in reverse to straighten it back out. I think you're being too picky.

              I got three fasteners away from dropping the rear subframe today. I ran out of time so it will be out tomorrow. 

              These look brand new right? Hahaha

                  Hows the quality of the srs stuff? I've been tempted by a few things they offer

                      Not too shabby actually. The two pieces that go together to brace the arms and make it an A shape need just a hair of filing so that they slide together nice. I'm sure I could probably take a BFH and get the together as it is though. I'll take pics tomorrow of how they fit up to the trailing arms.

                              Do a burnout.

                              Also, I have a moderately over-built subframe bushing puller if you're in the mood for a little mission creep. I can also provide pointers on RTAB removal if you feel your trailing arms aren't sufficiently bent.
