Im doing the vb upgrade on my friends IS, Toyomoto rods were not satisfactory, I cut some stainless steel ones, its going in tonight, Ill let yall know what it entails

 

Ok, so I didnt do it last night, instead I did it today. It took me around 2 hours, and wasnt that hard at all, since i do not have a lift i devised a method to getting the valvebody on, without making it harder than necessary. All you need are a bunch of zip ties.

As you see i made a sort of hammock to rest the parts in, allowing me to line the actuators up, and all the other little pieces so that I could get it on straight with wearing my arms out.

I did this on jackstands, with basic tools, and the fluid I replaced with was Royal Purple Maxatf, I all it cost around 200 to do this, so if there are any questions lmk
