Silly AAM short tail question

FiftyFiv3 · 10-28-2015, 02:18 PM

I just bought used AAM short tails without hardware. My car has approximately 1,500 miles. I was considering reusing the OEM gaskets since the car is only 2 months old, is this advisable?

If not, which replacement gaskets should I buy? 2.25" or 2.5"? I spoke with AAM and the hardware kit is $50 shipped and I'm trying to figure out if there is a more economical option out there.

Thanks!

Definitely just go to your local O'Reilly's, etc. Get the 2.5" because the 2.25" run a little small from my experience. Shouldn't be more than $15 all in.

Use the rest of that $50 for a GTR start button!

That's what I figured, thanks for the help.

The big hole is 2.5"?

Does anybody knows the distance between the two small holes?
