Made some progress today. I had to go into work to take care of some other stuff, so I had my son load the tires he had picked up for it and drive it in too. Just in time, too. The right front tire came apart on the way there.


So, new to me tires all around, took care of the pull I've been experiencing and vibration as well.

And, as promised previously, pics of the exhaust.




After getting the tires done, front suspension lubed and checking fluids, I glued the broken piece of the grille back in then gave it a wash.

The new exh. Pipes look great. But come on those rear pipe frame hangers look trashy an take away from the clean look of your exh. system.
A real Flash back to the old days when shops started just welding a bolt to the frame in 50's to 70's pipe hanger that cheapens it's look, an worse after it starts rusting ... Sorry to say my .02.
