You posted that in May. May 24th (My birthday)

May 24th + 4 months = September 24th (or something around there) = To get your permit.

How are you driving?

Yeah I'm not gonna be that specific when stating when exactly haha. Well my cousin (that lives with us) was driving during the meat incident, the saving from the 9500ix was with my cousin who has a '13 altima. I drive occasionally, parents do trust.

How used? Sounds like a good deal at half price if the bushings are still good.

Not a big deal though.. you can reuse your stock bushings and mounting brackets with the progress sway bar.

by bushings do you mean the endlinks? He isn't including any because he used his stock ones. I was going to purchase some from a vendor.

Nope.. The bushings are part of the two metal brackets that bolt that sway bar to the chassis. Just look underneath the car and you will see what we are talking about. Just do a DIY search on sway bar install.

Okay, Ill probably take a look at the ones he has included. Not too big of a deal, only $19 at heeltoe for new ones. Do you think I should buy the endlinks or is oem good enough?

Depends on the condition of your end links. Generally speaking your OEM ones are fine. But if they are in bad shape or rusted, get new ones.

the only reason to buy new endlinks is if the old endlinks are rusted.
if rusted, you cant get them off.
the logical step would be to cut them off.

then you couldnt reuse the stock endlinks because they are cut in half.
so the need for a new one is called for.

if you can get your old endlinks off with no problems, I'd just reuse them.

Bushings are rubber pieces.

Is there a list for the 2012's that show all the parts needed to add OEM top hats to TEIN coils?

I found a list is SAUCY thread but the numbers are different when i looked in 2012 parts?

TIA

Hotchkis Endlinks

you're down there, might as well strengthen it up a little.

They aren't that expensive either.

The CRV wheels look better than the TSXs and the 4runners.

Just because the act you did for the owner contains the word "job", does not mean you actually did work on the car.
