Re: How NOT to Install UCA's and Coilovers!
I hear ya, man. The tie-rod cotter pins took forever to get out, then we learned the hard, long way that the coilovers needed to go in first. So after undoing the spindle again we finished that up. Looking forward to tomorrow to finish this mofo! After/finished work pics to come...

Ha! You sound like me, always making things harder than they need to be! I usually forget or put something in backwards, and have to tear it all down to fix it... But I only do it once!
