[DML] Re: Upgraded Front Suspension

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

People have been predicting the imminent demise of my car ever since I purchased it in 2002, yet somehow the damn thing keeps motoring on (5,000 to 10,000 miles annually).

Some controversies I remember off the top of my head:
- Single piece headliner won't fit
- Engine sitting higher won't work
- 2 groove Volvo pulley won't clear the A/C belt
- Aluminum side channels won't reinforce the crumple extension (rendered moot by the new suspension)
- Trunk weatherstripping mounted to the car body won't seal
- Bellcrank return springs are a 50 cent waste of money
- Dual filament tail lights won't work
- Bleeding the radiator to the heater core won't work 

Etc.
