Got the spacers in today. They are just a little to big for my wheels.
Quick trip to the machine shop to turn them down and you won't be able to see them behind the wheels.

I got my driveshaft back today. It's been in the garage for a couple of years so I figured I should get it hot tanked and rebalanced.
Looks brand new.

Had my first pro-touring mechanical moment today.
Got the brakes finished up and the wheels on, jacked up the front, took out the jack stands,
lowered the car down, went to pull the floor jack out and nothing, the jack was stuck under the car.
The car is now low enough that the jack won't go under the front subframe.
VERY COOOL!!!!! Should handle great!!!!!
Guess it's time for a low profile floor jack.

All right, I know I said I would not spent the money to get a hydaulic flaring tool.
But after seeing how good it works, I couldn't resist. I'm weak, I can't help it.
Got it in today and did my first flare in less time then it took me to set uppack it and it was perfect.
I will never go back.
