    Hubs are still hot

    i bet your hydro booster is bad, there is a small bleed off port that gets plugged and the pressure from the ps pump will actually apply the brakes as you are driving. Learned this on my civy truck.

    Torque Rod Lengthening

    the rods are not forged, im prety shure they are cast steel, i dont belive you will be able to get a good enough weld quality to be safe. im pretty decent at welding and did this same thing with the tubing and did not have satisfactory results.
