Default Ughhh... I'm tired.

Ughhh... just wanting to vent to people who know where I am coming from. I just completed a two day install on two different cars that consisted of the following...

Car 1 - 2000 Z28
Replaced rotors (Brembo blanks), pads (ceramic) and all four shocks (Bilsteins).

Car 2 - 1998 Formy
Replaced all four shocks (Bilsteins).

We replaced the rear shocks on both cars Friday and I completed the four wheel brake job on my car by myself and removed the struts on Saturday.. I have a couple of battle scars but nothing too bad.

On the way back from the install, I killed a '05(new body) GT with paper plates pretty bad. He quit after I gave him the jump and matched his speed half way through third.

That made for a nice closure to the tiring day.

I agree. those new GTs arent all what theyre cracked up to be. Waste of money and a waste of steel. A LOT of Steel. Way to go!

Struts? That's Mustang talk.

We have shocks, shocks, shocks on the 4th gen.
