Season opener was today, and we went on a 55 mile trip. Mostly Autobahn at 60-70 mph. The new freeze plug holds water, yay!
The new shocks ride quite well. I am pleased with them. When I removed the rear shocks, the passenger side top "washer" was missing. That pretty much let the top of that shock pull almost out of its mount. The rear seems a little more stable now, but I am still loosing some gas out the filler neck on hard right turns.
Also need to tighten my fan belt, but glad to be on the road again! I also have quite a bit of wind noise coming from the vent windows in the front doors. There is always room for improvement!
