Back Under

Well I've decided to my baby back under the knife,trying to correct a wrong by the P.O.. Decided instead of keep trying to patch work the Volare front end,two guys said it wasn't safe to drive. I'm putting in a TCI Mustang II front end in,this will also clean up the weld spots under there too. You know the saying,20/20 hind site,I should of done this from the beginning. Also I told them to save the brand new Fatman Volare drop spindles, I will sell these for a decent price when they come off. Plus the new rotors and calipers too, L8R ZFLASH

Sometimes the hardest decisions are really the easiest. Spent some bucks to replace what appears to be a preference -not so much. Spend some bucks to replace an unsafe setup - no brainer. Get back on the road soon.
