so hi to anyone that cares! im new here and pretty much everywhere that isnt filled with smoke and the stale smell thats been following me from place to place
but thats in the past...the smell at least
ive never been much for going in one direction so usually i go everywhere and clean it up at the end
this is where it starts
thats my living room
this is all a few months ago
AND HERE WE ARE TODAY!
OHHH YEAH HEADED IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION! at least to my girlfriend that demanded the living room back
money was holding me back and just like all the other tax refund junkies here i am with a box under two feet long and foot in depth with 600 dollars in parts in it
actually where it all started was one evening when this guy who had been fighting my natural nature to do nothing and get wasted for all my life came to beat my head against the wall some more. i didnt live at home actually i lived on a couch when people where not staying awake on it.
thats my dad
he changed my life and here i am
doing what needs to get done and still seeing happy trails
so if anyone of you got kids that make your hair turn grey we buck up
especially when you tempt us with going balls out over the hill feet from each other and nothing but tears from all the speed.

San Jose Bmw, the one i got i can drop my forks through...its an option not listed on there site.
i never saw it until after i ordered my part, but it looks like some folks buy and extra bottom tripple tree and get the same net effect with it....cheaper and much more shapely looking in my opinion.
im already in it though

Im coming to terms with realizing that nothing i predict is going to happen happens....
so i did my first welds on something other than a fence(holy shit galvanized metal fucks sake) and a sign i think it came out pretty awsome
in my second phase im going to add my lwb that i scored from a crack head but for now im interested in bottoming out and seeing where that leaves my subframe
DOES SOMEONE KNOW ANY RELEVANT DATA RELATED TO THE SWAP FROM SWB TO LWB WITH THE STANDARD SWB SUBFRAME????
