Call Cherry Hill Triplex. IF they have them in stock, order it throguh theri website, and then pick it up. It's cheaper if you order through the site.

I went to the Reading Phillies morning game yesterday. It started at 9:30am. Nothing like being at a ball game drinking at 9am while most everyone else I know was working. It ends up turning into an all day affair, and I was asleep by 8pm. I know, it was rough.

Hopefully I will see some of you gents tonight in Oaks. I should be arriving about 7:30-45. I know a few others who expressed interest, so we should have an ok turnout.

I will not be attending the Oaks meet tonight... The only way i would go is if we have a beater meet!

I ordered my energy suspension front sway bar bushings, a whooping $11.95 from extremepsi, gonna cost 5 times that to have them put in.
Hopefully this will rid my car of the dreaded front end knock I have!

That sucks, how the hell did you miss that one?



I've never had an experience like that at the River Deck, and I've never been to Rock Lobster.

Are you saying R/T charged you $200 to mount and balance 4 tires?

Look at you ego trippin with your E90...



Chu, they will expect the same sexual favors that Marc gives them... just an fyi.
I paid less than that for my 4 tire mount/balance at RT.

Roll up shotgun with Danimal. He's suggested this pedo party.

oh btw if anybody is looking for a used car, i recommend the place i picked up the e90 at. it is a privately owned place. they don't try to sell you on anything. everything was in a showroom and when i got there (after calling the guy to set it up), he pulled the car out front and center and answered a few of my questions and walked away for me to be alone to look at it. it was priced about 1000 under the market price according to edmunds and he told me he was firm on it, but it was a satisfactory price. i told him i was going to finance through my credit union because their rate was the lowest i found at 4.19% but he told me he uses them as well and got me 3.19%. he also showed me how the banks and government let dealership up the rate themselves and collect the difference. they just didn't seem interested in that or any of the BS you deal with at a dealer. the finance guy, the dude's brother, sat in the car yesterday for like 30 minutes showing my wife and me every feature of it which was nice (or he liked her). anyway it was a pretty painless experience. the only thing is they don't negotiate much but the prices are pretty fair.

Not to get to the bushings from what I'm told... Only if replacing the front bar itself. I can't get to them laying on my back in my garage, I tried already. I was able to replace my endlinks and the noise is def not as bad as it was but not completey gone yet. You can have your struts back btw, I'll give them to you when you actually show up at an autox.

I was just kidding actually... I'm not going tonight either way. I would be down for the beater meet sometime, but we should plan it a little better (I need to get some stickers first).
