Not to bad today, just getting caught up from AMVIV. Steve is getting ready to drive home and back. He sold his header, and needs clothes.

We have 3-installs to do this weekend though.

Brad, thanks again, I also had Chad from Detroit Tuned tell me the same thing. Not that I don't trust you, I just put the question out there and you two were the only ones who answered. Thanks again for your help and the T-shirt.

Hey Chris
I'll pass on the rear sway bar. I grabbed one out of the dumpster at AMVIV. There were lots of parts like air boxes, filters, pulleys, and full exhausts. I would have liked to grab an "S" exhaust but figured I might find one in a dumpster closer to home.

Thanks anyways ..
Kevin

Brad,
Tell Steve I found the source (I hope) of my "clunk" in the rear suspension. It was indeed the RR drop link from the sway bar. After taking it all part, adding shims....testing....removing shims....testing....I decided to swap the drop links from side to side to see if the "clunk" followed the suspect drop link. Low and Behold..."clunk" is gone!! Time will only tell if it is a long term fix.
Thanks again for the help on the new calipers, adjusted the slack out of the E-brake by removing the boot cover and a 13mm deep socket and all is well.
What better way to spend ones B-day ......baseball game on in back ground 'n bonding with ones MINI.

Glad to hear you found the problem
Bonding with your MINI is a good thing.
We did a Crank Pulley install on Sunday.

I knew that the link still had a little bind after I lubed it, but after the car was lowered, I bet it bound-up more. I'm glad it's repaired. I'll tell you how I like the Texas Speedwerks endlinks when I get them installed.

Steve
