[QUOTE="Afterimage, post: 272456, member: 7676"] As mentioned in the video it's on the lift because of the work I needed to do on it for the summer driving season. Got 2 of the 3 things done today...................oil & filter change + rear axle fluid change. Tomorrow I'll finish up with my CF composite frame brace install, back in Dec. they were bolted on and I sorted out the 1 issue with one of the braces so tomorrow's job is to double check that particular brace and install the bolts that came with the braces (currently I reinstalled the OE bolts from the alum. braces). The bolts that I am installing have blue locktite tape applied to them so those are going on and instead of torquing them to the specified 74 ft./lbs of torque I'm going to torque them to a slightly lower spec (probably 65-68 ft./lbs). I'm not comfortable torquing them to the GM spec as I don't want to crunch the CF composite braces too much. They are now currently torqued to 60ft./lbs and I have driven the car and don't notice any issues so slightly more torque but below the spec will be fine. [/QUOTE]
