Garage Pics

Hola dudes.

Just posting a pic of the new garage. Took me about 3 hours to install the motofloor. Pretty easy overall, lots of deadblow hammering! Overall impressed with the product, seems very sturdy (it says don't jack a car up on it) and very easy to clean. Costco shipped it quickly, and free shipping!

Nice! How much was it? My concrete floor is greeting old to look at and to clean. also, what do you say we all post pictures of the garages? We have threads for the wives/gfs, cars, but not garages. Just a thought

Thanks man, it's not super cheap, but it all depends on how many boxes you need. each box is 48 square feet at $140 a box. I did some searching around (search motofloor on google) and it goes on sale every once in a while.

Looks sooo much better.

Yeah we should turn this thread into a, "Pics" of your garage thread. I'm sure some peeps on this board have some amazing, "Man caves." I'll take one of mine tonight to start things off.

I know it was much lower before until the dealer replaced two of the airbags/shocks under warranty and when I got it back it sat higher. My concern is if I lower it again and the other airbags go out, won't that be a pain in the *** to do all over again?

Sorry if this is a silly question, I know nothing about lowering the car.

Thanks.

Thanks!

Having those items replaced should not have changed the ride height. At all.

Dealer may have torqued the control arms with the car in the air thus keeping the control arms from dropping down properly. What are the measurements from wheel center to fender lip on front and rear?

That's what everyone says, the stuff seems pretty sturdy though, its probably just some cover your *** boilerplate.
