So I angle into my garage to get the passenger side as close to the wall as possible. It's one of those tandem two car garages where you park one in front of the other. Narrow as hell. Mine's a shop in the back and the truck in the front. Absolutely verbotten to work on your cars outside where you can actually have room to work.

I had an an agressive (for me) wrenching weekend planned. I was going to swap Gen2 UCA's on, and while I had everything disconnected, swap on Gen2 front brakes at the same time, thus the need to angle into the garage and give me some room to work on the driver's side. Then back out using the ebrake, reposition, and do the passenger's side and finish her off with a brake bleed.

Got the UCA loose finally (man, popping that ball joint off was a bear!) and start taking it off, when I discover, arrggghhh, the body is in the way. I need to lift the body. Well, Roger Brown's 2 inch lift kit is on the shelf.

So it looks like I'll be doing a simultaneous body lift, UCA swap, and brake swap. It's gonna be a looooooong weekend.

It's all good.
