EBAY!!!!

mad props :cheers:

Okay why didn't you bring this to gilmer? Isn't it done?
and you're gonna beat the crap out of those front spring hangers. THin is nice, but not when you know it's gonna take a beating

no front bumpstops and the trailer park doesnt have a resident's fab shop like most of them do...

i think my front hangers are pretty well protected now that i have the bumper back on.

you let bumpstops keep you from wheeling? Shoulda come over and I'd have welded em on for you

since bumpstops will keep my front d-shaft from making whoopie with my transmission pan, yes. i havent even put the shaft on yet. plus, im broke.

torque converter decided to eat itself and deficate metal shavings into the rest of the tranny. so, a rebuild is in order. i got a 4wd case from gordon's to replace my 2wd case. pulled mine after work today and from two, one shall arise.

betcha didnt think a 4x4 chevy 4 speed would fit in a neon did ya? inform your local enterprise rent-a-car. i didnt ask the rental guy, but he did inform me that neons are cool with a flowmaster.

if you need to weld something John, just bring it by.

The neon does have a decent stereo, it also has a rev limiter. I didn't try a neutral drop or the test for the top speed limiter b/c I am a ***** and didn't take it past 90 on hwy 6 at high noon. I tested the rev limiter in the parking lot of the enterpirse place though, John was not impressed... I was impressed that John coaxed out of the guy to tell his story about the flowmaster on the neon. He says, "It was the stainless twin tip, it still looked classy" I was trying hard not to lose it. Chode.

I had the same problem with the PT Cruiser I rented, the rev limiter in neutral sux.

Not impressive, knowing that it's possible to road swap an sm465 into a cavalier at 65mph.
