SIPNGAS is lowered!
Well, it may have taken the better part of the day, but we successfully installed Tanabe DF210's on Lisa's car! It would not have take so long if the CV joint did not decide to slip out of it's socket! Luckily we solved the problem by rotating the shaft and raising or lowering the entire assembly until the joint was back in place.
Since Lisa needed to be back on the other side of Wisconsin by a certain time today, and we still not resolved the CV joint issue, she drove MY car home! We will be meeting in the middle of the state tomorrow morning to swap rides. It was a slightly frustrating day but overall very good, we learned something new and Lisa drove my car for a couple hours Here are the before and after pictures...please don't mind the dirt

I'm amazed at how it makes the 15's look just the right size now.
