    I need some help and equipment (shop press, maybe a dremel, I have tons of bits and wheels, my dremel was stolen), be willing to pay and/or get dinner and what not and beers after. Lemme know what you think is fair, it's a tough job.

    I got a bunch of bushings to be done and no idea how to do it, the rear bushings are so jacked it sounds like a pack of rabid badgers having an orgy on a squeaky bed back there, that's the only description I could think of.

    I'm also looking for a 21mm drill bit, to drill out the one urethane sway bar bushing that energy always makes in 15mm for some reason. I'll prolly buy that though.

    YAHOO! I got the entire front end done today!!!!
    and got my two studs in since I had access to a compressor
    so now I am SCCA legal and my car is like butter, at least up front, need to reallign, but it's pretty good, also need to sell my old wheels to get money for the rear links.
    steering wheel is even more cocked now, but when I get realligned I will be able to straighten her out :D

    um whatever you say chief LOL
    that hop makes it feel like the car is falling apart in back and is making the car understeer like a mad cow, rotation sucks because of it

    i dont care where you are from, unless you are driving an 83 ford bronco, your car is not supposed to HOP!

    I'm going to get a helical LSD to round out the rear also
    as much as I loved the Kaaz on my Aristo, eh the oil change requirements were ridiculous.
