Description: new suspension in April 2008 including wagon springs in the back raising it slightly higher than normal stance (hoping to clear deep snow). Now running bigger than factory tries 185/70R14 touring tires (I went for the softer compound for handling before gas was ludicrously priced) OEM tires were 175/65R14 however the factory tires were rather inaccurate mph, the new tires are almost exactly on according to gps and google maps.
Build Thread:
Current Mods: Ducted taped up the grill, and have been working on adjusting the nut behind the wheel. Four wheel alignment and changing of oil to Amsoil 0W30 100% synthetic oil at 192,800 miles

Planned Mods: some sorta of snow friendly smoothing of radiator openings on the front bumper, and possible some homemade moon rims. eventually an Mpguino will be built and installed. Next set of tires will be hard compound and over inflated.
