Spring goodie's

[Bradley G]

Want list for this spring;
Front sway bar
Hard brake lines
Shocks & struts
Trans pan W/plug
I still have tuning, some minor maintenance and body work on the front and rear bumpers as well .
The Marauder, a boat that rolls!

[Bradley G]

I've sourced the shocks and trans pan from Rock Auto ,
Thinking on the current KYB promotion.
I have the origonal fronts Tokiko ? @128K
The rears were replaced under ESP warranty @60k
I want the rear shocks , that allow for a widened wleel,but that may not be in the budget.
Feel free to source on my want list , 'cause you guys always find the deals!

You got some time to spend in the garage. I just got my Marauder 2 months ago and got a wish list too. Doing the stereo now, the amp goes in on the 16th and I'll have good sound. I jumped on the rear Addco bar Jegs had on sale. Need the matching front. My car came on winter tires, so I'm doing wheels and tires by late spring. Going to take her to Zeibart for rustproofing soon. She's my daily driver, so I can't lose her to cancer.

'Prolly won't be me turning wrenches , as much as that sounds great, I've been really limited with mobility.
You will notice an appreciable difference with the sway bar.
The only stereo upgrade I did was speakers.
Infinity reference speakers, stock size, no holes or wires were severed!

I know all about limited mobility. My VA disability rating is 90%. I work slow, take breaks, and also have work done for me often. Today I'm taking the factory subwoofer out to make room for my JL Audio 12 inch. But the only thing I will do is take the old sub out and I'll be done for the day.

We had some decent weather a couple weekends ago, I decided to wash & vacume the cars.
That was obviously too much 'cause I was hurtin' for days!
My problem is when I feel better, I just revert back to regular activities.
I am learning my limitations!

Not trying to derail your thread. I had major back issues, like 1.5 hours to walk 20 feet some mornings. I didn't even want to get up to check the mail, I was jacked up for 4 years
I had all the nerve ending in my spine burned up, twice. 20k a pop

Best life changing event yet. I get around fine now

From my experience, do not focus on the pain, your brain will seek for that pain source and you will not be able to control it (serious). Eventually it will be a direct path of pain source and you'll never get rid of it!!!

They put me on some drugs to reroute all my brain activity, it worked and now if I feel a tweek or twing I have to start thinking of baseball or football and it goes away.
Check your diet, if you eat something and the pain levels get higher, write it down and eliminate it from your diet. Some foods trigger nerve pain, try it out
I've been off the meds for 2 years almost, I feel much better!

Anyway thought I'd share pain management with you two, Bigdaddy I know your always in pain, best of luck to you, I know what your going through

My issue is such a multitude of chronic degeneration, arthritis, bursitis, stenosis, 2 herniated discs , Fibromialga, predisposed to diabetes with the similar nerve pain.
Besides a whole body tendenacous tear from years ago that I never rehabbed from.
I could give lectures on pain management.

Go to your dr and try cymbalta. Do not get generic stuff

4 days into that and I was getting better

Lol I have been on it for two months.
Easy for you to say on the generic, I'm on SS Disability, Cymbalta was not approved until my Doctor went to bat for me and petition to the Medicare board.
I feel fortunate to have the generic because the alternative is too costly.
