Hmm...is it only the first couple? All the photobucket one's should be view-able regardless, but I'm not that great with online computer stuff. If not, let me know or register.

You don't become a full access member until you hit a post count of 3. It's set up that way to thwart spammers with their annoying hit & run picture ads.

That's next on my list, all Moog bushings and tie-rod ends.

Well, I'll tell you this much, they weren't cheap, even with my discount! Haha. But I know I'm getting some of the best parts, so I'm fine with sacrificing the money. I'll be getting Moog SS springs too and most likely Monroe shocks.

Everybody always seems to say "don't put Monroe shocks on a Camaro" from my experience on message boards.

When I was researching shocks anytime Monroe shocks were mentioned for a Camaro everybody said they were too soft and spongy.

Well, I suppose we'll find out. Most other brands are too far out of my price range. I'd love to get some Bilstein or KYP or QA1's, but I'm too poor for that stuff! Hahaha

And I wanted to add two of my best friends onto here since they've been part of my life for a long time now.

This is Lucky, he was a stray that wondered onto our property and was only supposed to stay one night. When we found him, he weighed in at 11 lbs. He's now up 28!

And here's my mans best friend, Midnight. 12 years old but still kicks it like a puppy when she wants.

Been a while since I updated and unfortunately not much of an update. Took the shift boot from my brothers Grand Am and installed it in the Camaro. Pretty much a perfect fit and makes it look like it came stock in the car.
