Rico,

Mark had to leave for a bit. If need be, I can come out there and help. I still have one good arm!

Rico does the Blitz suspension use the top plate off of the stock struts or does it come with it's own? If it uses the stock one they should bolt right up. My Tein Basics were supposed to use the stock top plate and a few parts but because I had the Cusco's I was able to put everything together without having to use any parts off of the stock setup.

Make sure you get a alignment after they are put on. even with them set at 0 the alignment rack showed -1.4 on one side and -1.1 on the other. Auto Innovations charges a little more if they have to adjust the camber plates but it is worth it to make sure they are actually set where you want them to be.

My schedule filled up all of a sudden, and I'm gonna have to wait to install everything in a week or so...

Thanks for the tip Brian, I'm definietly gonna go to AI for the alignment.

Haha Brad, I know you would wanna help out even with 2 bad arms!

Thanks Tesh for the offer too, i might take you up on that if I am ever up in Sac....

Gabe, got your PM thanks!

I figure why pay someone when you can get the same service cheaper or for free!

Yeah, I talked to Willie, he's a cool dude. I'll find out Monday if it's a total loss or not. At this point, we're hoping it is a total loss, then maybe my gf can get an xA
