Did control arms tonight, but sadly wasn't able to break the infamous pinch bolt out so I didn't get the uppers done :\ The lowers were also a major PITA to get out. Impact hammer failed, impact wedge failed, head treatment with a high temp torch failed, so finally I went up to specialty tools and grabbed some bad ass wedge tool which popped it out after a bit of force.
I just didnt want to get stuck on the pinch and not be able to get it off. Kind of a bummer, but the steering still feels a whole lot better.
Also did a long overdue oil change, WOOT!

Yesterday, hardwired RD with remote mute switch.
Couple days ago, MBC and Boost gauge.

Tomorrow.. alignment and mount second GPS (hopefully this one works)

Replaced rear brakes, if anyone wants the special tool they can borrow it from me. Made it ridiculously easy.
