No problem. A police service territory manager is just a fancy way of saying account manager. Basically I am responsible for overseeing the out fitting and purchasing of patrol vehicles for local bay area agencies from San Jose to Sonoma County.

Thanks bro. I can't complain it pays the bills and yes I do meet quite a few people daily all law enforcement. Last year i built a 2010 Challenger R/T for the city of Santa Clara PD. It came out pretty slick.

What up bro itried to text you when the SB Fire hit cause I know you used to live close, I also hit up Ryan and everyone else. Never heard back from you so I suppose you changed numbers. I heard Natasha ran into some of your cousins or you and your cousins somewhere recently.? How is everything?

I did the 5 lug conversion and brakes. The axles are nothing special... only 28 spline. Its running the factory diff as well. I just did a basic 5 lug swap. IIRC, the gears are actually 3.55's because I had that done along with the axles. [ July 09, 2011, 12:59 PM: Message edited by: iceman302 ]

+1 My coupe is the least valueable next to the last 5 other cars I've owned. But my fox is still the only car in my garage spot. I learned my lesson a long time age.

Don't you have that white coupe with black trim? How much you want for it?

Yeah I ripped out my upper torque boxes launching too hard. So in order to eliminate torque boxes being ripped out I ordered "s-box" from wild rides, everything I hear from them is good a lil expensive but it shoudln't break ever again.

I never understood why you were wanting to yank out all that top shelf MM stuff I put on that car. The adjustable LCA's, torque arm, and panhard bar setup works really well.

If you are going turbo, if it has 3:73s I would change it to 3:27s or 3:55s depending on what time and tranny you have.
