The only trouble I've experienced is when trying to drain the oil when the motor's cold. At that point it's too viscous to drain through the plug. Run the engine a bit to warm up the oil and then it'll work like a dream.

I didn't purchase either of those, just the valve - works fine for me that way.

Another benefit of the valve is that you don't need to purchase crush washers every time you change your oil!

Very nice, I'd be afraid to ask you how much you paid for it.

Grant let us know if that helps with the hitting of the body. If you are that low and it doesnt hit, then I am selling my 350evo ones and getting those.

Even my stock arms hit right now so I'm not expecting the SPL's to clear. I just need some solid arms that are easy to adjust. The SPC shim kit isn't working to my liking and I don't want to run -4 camber up front.

Oh yeah, I Forgot to add to the list that I ordered some Tein inner tie rods as well!

Crap I guess they do look thicker than stock. My buddy that works on cars think we could turn them upside down and it might work. Doesnt hurt to try.
