Default I?m FREAKIN? losing my mind.... holy shiet.

So about a month ago, I was going to the track with my mini cooper. I wanted to adjust the suspension to remove some of the camber so I ordered a set of Hotchkins adjustable lower control arms.

When I put the car on the lift, I discovered that when I rebuilt the car after I totalled it at the track last year, I had already replaced them with the identical control arms.

Fast forward today. When I decided to lift the H2 to get 40?s under it, I ordered a set of keys to crank up the front end and a set of spacers under the rear springs.

So today I finally got a chance to install my new keys. Once pulled, I realized they were IDENTICAL to the ones I had already installed. What a freakin? moron.

On the bright side, cranking up the keys gave me an add?l 3?. When I install the rear spacers, I?ll level the truck off and raise or lower the front as necc.

PS. Anyone want a brand new set of keys to raise your front end, I?ve got a set, $90 shipped.

PSS. When I received the H2 back from the duramax conversion, I received a set of torsion bars out of the HD2500 that the engine came out of. I installed them into the H2 today and they?re definitely bigger. I can?t tell if the extra (not much but noticeable) stiffness is from cranking them up to 3? or using the thicker torsion bars. Thoughts?
