Re: UMI Tubular k-member install -- Fully Detailed Video

In other threads, I've seen people bash you for posting the videos. Whoring them out as is were.

However, I am not sure if people realise just how helpful the videos. You cover the salient points needed for the jobs and for those of us who know the procedures it helps remind us of the things we forget up until we are actually doing the job. Aka, nut and bolt sizes, minor snags.

12 years ago when I had just bought my basket case of a GTA it would have been very helpful to have these videos. So for the newbies these videos are a gold mine.

As compared to the regular shows like two guys garage that jump from putting the car on the lift, to suddenly pulling the camshaft out. Wait what? How did we go from putting it on a lift to INSTALLING the camshaft. What about the stuff in-between?!

Re: UMI Tubular k-member install -- Fully Detailed Video

Thanks guys for the positive feedback.. the UMI K-member is a real nice piece. .I wouldnt recommend using stock springs with this setup..when u install the stock springs they sit bowed out to one side..not a big deal..can install lowering springs or coilovers to correct the issue..

I also hate the tv shows where they cut all the work they do and make it seem so easy..this is exactly why I like to show everything in my vids..

Thanks again guys for watching my thirdgen vids..dont forget to subscribe

Subscribed!
I intended to do a good video during my LS swap... didn't happen, too much work to do both at the same time, so I can appreciate this!
