UD,

I'd save a bit of money and keep the BJ's in there. It isn't like they are very intensive to get to if something does occur.

 

Visually inspect them, move them around in there range of motion and if they appear and "feel" okay, go with them.

I believe JDM Rev.A cars (MY2004) also have exclusively R160, yet they come with the alu diff support.

 

I should have said USDM 05-06LGTs & 06B have R160s and steel supports.

 

unclemat...I think we have learned by now that the Land of the Rising Sun has a higher ratio of OEM goodies per capita than the USDM market EVER will. No getting around that fact.

I used a Gear Wrench pass through for my spring install on my Bils and it busted. Good thing is that it has a lifetime warranty. I got a hold of GW and they sent me a new one rather quickly.

Yeah, it's rear diff support and it's alu on JDM cars. I thought it's JDM only, at least I did not see it there for 06 USDM SpecB. Poor Vimy.

 

I think it's aluminum and we got it on the 07/08's for a reason: we have the R180; 06B and all LGTs have the R160. (the aluminum is probably a method to counterbalance the additional weight from the R180)

 

 

Underdog: that is considered part of the sprung weight, because it is after the springs.

 

If you can trace a component back to the wheel and "pass" through the spring before hitting the wheel, it is considered sprung weight.

yeah, hardcore Mike.

 

I'd like to learn welding...but messing with the given geometry of the shifting assembly beyond a production unit (OEM or aftermarket) is pretty hardcore for me right now.

 

Lengthening the rear shifter post....okay. Lengthening the shift rod itself?

 

Good work man.

 

At least I usually make less mess in my courses than I did in the passenger airbag on/off light!

Well, I weep less now. Thank you.

I'm a historian. I educate America's youth to be the leaders of tomorrow...

 

These idiot lights piss me off, and I feel a great deal of satisfaction in breaking crap like this. Twisting the G-ddamned chime off the circuit board in a new car so that it NEVER chimes at me again is a kind of catharsis.

 

Anyway, I only thought of just covering the LEDs once the other airbag light came on... perhaps I was a bit rash.

 

Anyway, blobs of solder across the LED pins fixed it.

 

Merry merry merry,

 

Ben

 

PS: Wait until you see how I'm going to hack into the rear wiring harness of my Outback to install the Tribeca back up sensor system that my wife wants...

brute

 

I weep for the future of history.

My gosh Bimmer, not a tolerant or patient person are you?

 

I'm siding with sebberry on this one. Did you even think of putting a small strip of black tape on the back of the airbag icons in the maplight location instead of ripping out the LED??

 

You in the demolition business??

why did you have to kill the passenger AB light? And why is the driver AB light turning on? WHAT HAVE YOU DONE BEN?!?!?!?
