Im a little confused about the doughnut comment, I will definately take pics after she's all fixed, of the new rim and the redone axle and tirod and everything, just for my mental sanity though, the doughnut comment was reffering to, ....like the kind you sit on when you have surgery on your behind confused

Would a burnout with smoke rolling off of the tires suffice square I have no way of putting a video on the web for you guys to see, and a doughnut might just look like I was standing still smile

Ouch! Will make me think twice about the way I pull into my driveway next time I head home since I do the same thing. Though I don't have a curb, I do have a firehydrant.

BTW they repaved the end of the street that I live on thats in Michigan which means I almost have my own little street dragstrip in front of my house. thumbsup

Just an update, I was at the shop yesterday where my car is at, had to pick some things up that I had forgotten in there, anyhow, I get there and my mechanic tells me that the engine cradle is also bent :rolleyes: I was like "fantastic!" Anyhow, parts are getting ordered today, should have it back by the end of next week.

Also, I was talking to a few of the guys on clubGP, and today I will be ordering the 3.4" pulley to replace my 3.25", a guy showed me a picture of a destroyed block that had a 3.25" pulley with no supporting mods, and I dont want to end up like that, to all the guys here who said I should have stuck with the 3.4 I apologize.

I am now hearing your "I told you so's" smile also, if they let me return my 3.25" I will be ordering the T/B spacer as well, I'll keep you guys updated thumbsup

Wished it went out like a warrior.

So, I got to see my car last night, went out swing by to see if everything was ready. Turns out that there was a dented bearing too, and some other bent parts, that they didnt know about until the replaced the axle and tie rod and then got it alligned. HOPEFULLY, if things work in my favor, I will have her back tonight, but we'll see.

On a side note, it did look good, and it was nice to see it again, I forgot how much I love my GP laugh

As soon as I get her back I'm swapping the pulley and then going undercover (debadging it) so I'll take some pics and show you guys how everything turned out
