Special thanks to Patreon, Detective Coating, all of you Tubes, Abe and Robert for all of your help with doing this.

I've done 12 videos with Robert, let's now make it a baker's dozen. It was nice to have him back for some S'mores. My friend Abe owns every socket and extension known to mankind. Restoration work on the Galant is progressing by leaps and bounds. I divided the restoration work between two different shops to complete all of the refinishing work twice as fast and it worked! All the mechanicals are here!!!

Most of what has to be done to restore 1g all wheel drive subframes and drivetrain parts I've already covered in great detail with Robert, including the installation of the Volk or JayRacing toe eliminator kits that I showed here. We also rebuilt Lobro Joints, driveshafts, bushings, carrier bearings, u-joints, K-members, mustache bar, basically every subframe part and bushing. We did it already. And Robert was actually the first guy at the track to ever beat my Elantra after I took possession of it. Its very first pass. The boosted beaver got me! Glad I kept that loss in the family.

My video format is very different today, it's plays more like informal cliff notes of our previous work, but it's only a couple of videos this time instead of 12. But, I dug all of them up just in case you were curious to see what I looked like and sounded like 11 years ago. All of these tech videos are all on-topic with anyone doing 1g DSM or Galant subframe work because they both use the same parts. I promise you that none of the technology has changed at all.
