    The wife’s 2004 w/ 358k she refuses to replace it, so I have been doing a full on restoration. I have spent the last 2 months doing paint correction, all lights are now LED, new headlights and DRL assembly’s, leather repair and redye, hatch latch and window now operational. I have new front suspension parts ready to go on and a folding mirror gear kit on the way. Then she should be at 100% for a 20 year old Limited RWD.

    Got’em! Everything checks out fine on moving parts, but struts and springs are really tired and original. As strong as the engine and trans is, I decided to go ahead and replace Erry thang! Still up in the air over the rack, that will be a game time decision once I am all pulled down.
