No disrespect intended, just making up for lost time It's out of my system now.



So... you're in Virginia now, and rebuilding the Tib to get it back to it's pristine condition - right? Are there any parts you need? What's the biggest thing that needs to be done?

biggest thing would be the bearings, about 2 months ago, i jacked up the front right to see how the oil pan seal was doing that i replaced, and the wheel had some wobble to it.... not wobble from the steering linkage, but a slight 1/16th of an inch wobble from the hub bearing.... no bueno, so i been driving her easy





then the suspension, the eibachs only lastest 50,000 miles of daily driving in the hot climates ive lived in, like florida and norfolk. the car has a "stock" bounce to it when you push down on the fender.... which leads to the struts, they are done too. the probably are not completely used, but its definitely not as tight as when it was all new. honestly its not bad, they could probably go another 25-50 k miles, but they just feel mushy.



then the brakes, i might do the OEM BBK, or just new OEM.
