According to a TH400 book I have by Ron Sessions, the normal operating range is between 175-225 degrees. Every 20 degrees above ideal (225) will cut the fluid life by half. This just mandates...

Can you get at that upper spindle nut by coming through the wheel-well? You will have to remove the dust shield (and lift your car and remove the right front tire of course)...

I'll chime in and say that you won't go too big on sway bars unless you get obscene. They don't affect ride harshness except perhaps when hitting a bump while cornering.

No. He never mentioned that he was using them and I'm sure it would have come up. Just determine what kind of back spacing you will need with the 9" rim and you'll be fine. You don't want them...

Sort of a side issue, but converting factory R12 systems to R134a works fine. But you must evacuate the system completely, use a different compressor oil and change the receiver/dryer to a R134a...
