It's nice to have friends who own their own garage where there are several lifts, a full fledged paint booth with integrated HVAC system and all the tools you need to get work completed on your car
I was offered use of one of his lifts so I could easily replace my tie rod assemblies on my ZHP today
now that both the left and right tie bar assemblies have been replaced I just need to get my car a full alignment and I should be good.
Next on my list of things to do will be replacing my power steering hoses (all of them) and getting the Aluminum Turner power steering reservoir to complete refreshing that system on my car
the high pressure power steering hose looks like it will be needing a refresh soon . . . IT NEVER STOPS . . .

I also got the EGR valve in my SAP system replaced this afternoon and it was choked up in carbon deposits as the pictures below show. I removed the old part and proceeded to clean out the area using full strength Simple Green where the EGR valve mounts to the engine block so the new gasket will seat in properly when installing the new part.
That's a lot of carbon in there
The carbon was seeping past the gasket and on to the side of this valve.
New part went in very easily
Nice to have this finished

Car is at the shop getting all wheels balanced then getting a 4-wheel alignment to complete my suspension work. I'm expecting my car should be driving well after.
I'm getting new Michelin Pilot Sport AS4 tires for these wheels. I have been running these tires on my Style 135's for a few years now and have loved them so I'm putting them on these wheels as I feel they are more than adequate for street/highway driving use for my ZHP
Been wanting to do this for quite some time
Tire size will be 235/35 19 front and 255/30 19 rear
