i recon i can trek the 4 odd miles from the house to the kidd in the 109a3, if it would be a significant enhancement i could bring a 105 trailer too (tarp's crap but i have all 4 side pieces) but haven't gotten the hang of backing that short tongued &%$#! as it disappears completely behind the 109 and could be a pain, i may add the budd nuts and outer wheels just so i can see it in the mirrors without having to turn

well i am now a spectator, finished changing all 8 lower torque rod joints and decided i'd do the uppers next week and went for a drive and to fuel up, was about 1-2 miles from home and this turd in a camaro t-bones me from a side street while i am going about 50, tore a hole in the right rear big enough to look though, don't know if it damaged the suspension.

unseen suspect items will be lug studs and bearings, it drove ok on the flat at 10 mph but can't tell much with the noise and vibration, if juan brings that tire i'll be there to pick it up and can build the spare and install it then level out the suspension and measure rear suspension for square
