Alec, you get the tires for emissions on yet?
Chris, I got one on and turns out there is no air in it. So i gave up for the day. Do you need them back any time in particular?

No worries Chris! I was like, "hey, i have OBA now! perfect. O wait... its not hooked up:bang:" The PO put so many electronics in this thing, the wiring is ridiculous. I couldn't even figure anything out.

Got the replacement long arms in the mail (free except for shipping :thunb:) Going to throw those on this weekend and hopefully replace a worn through brake line. Hopefully all goes well

So I got the new arms in the mail, and went right at it. Went very smoothly, which surprised me! Took me only a couple hours. So step one is checked off the list. hopefully i can get it all ready to go very soon as i have made it through my first semester of mechanical engineering!!
