new shoes on the subaru


Recommended Posts

ok they are really used

but since i could afford them i got a hell of a deal rims+ almost new tires still have alot of the casting fuzzies on them

 

traded some green less than 110$ and my 4 old rims and tires

took half hour to swap 8 tires around with 1 jack and a jack stand and no power tools

and this is what i ended up with w00t

 

 

sorry did not adjust the picture :) so its prolly huge

oh and the ford in the background is not mine i am just fixing it

the turbo dodge caravan the wife is about to leave in is mine however

 

 

oh and my usuall luck with things

got in it to leave and .. thump thump bang bang bang bang bang

pulled off the road pulled off the front left tire and oooh lookie

some nice excess weld bead is hitting the brake caliper

i had a file and was furiously filing down the over sized weld goober

on the side of the road

all better now

strangely they came off a 85 wagon with 1.8 f.i not a turbo ... i would think they would have went bang bang bang on the 85 as well

unless turbo's have bigger calipers

 

now even with worn out struts i can hit corners hard and it sticks like glue no "feeling" of slipping alot quieter on the highway also
