    Noooo! Save the roof rack and get a skibox on the top, gloss black box would look goooood. Since Audrey likes to keep stuff on her, that would be good place to store some less used items!

      TFC Not considerably, new ones are pretty aerodynamic. Also they give ton more room, since her trunk is pretty cluttered already I think it would be solid idea.

    I feel your pain on the control arms. About a month ago I needed to replace some wheel bearings on the front of my daily. One stuck bolt eventually led to another where I decided to scrap my front suspension entirely and rebuild. I was so beat by that suspension. Never did get to use a ratchet. Only a breaker bar had the torque even after the bolts started to loosen.

    I recommend that if you have a very rusty bolt that won’t budge, try using a flame gun or blow torch to heat the surrounding area until you here a click. The bolt should loosen without much difficulty.

    You can also remove the springs without even taking the strut off just support the lower a arm and remove the center nut from the strut and just ease the lower a arm down until the strut you will have to remove the top bolt from the link rod to The strut you can pull the spring out if you push down on the spindle access to new spring is going to be a shorter one it will go in easier I did this on a 2015 BMW also it works very well

    These brakepads are the easiest ones to install, you don't push them in from the inside of the caliper, you have to slide them in from the bottom, attach the caliper and get the springs in: there you go, done! I've done these brakes a 1000 times in different cars here in Germany. It's really easy, brake job front and rear: half an hour dude....
