Eh, maybe we all sign up after next week, will be in Cali
for work next week, which means, not much work and lots of other stuff.
By the way, mori, how'd that tie rod end removal go?

New tie rods are in!
I'm not sure if the Liquid wrench did it, or if I was just week the day before, but this morning the tie rod ends broke free with little effort. I'll make a post and hopefully show some pictures of the old parts by Sunday.

nyc?
I would honestly want to get a ride then if I were in your shoes. I work in Teaneck right over the GWB, if you want to come by I can give you a ride and you can try em out. Any stiff suspension is going to dislike potholes.

absolutely! I thought it was very good, and Bill did a fantastic job.
I wasn't sure he could pull off as serious role, but he did, and his panache brought a little bit of humor to everything without ruining the whole effect.

That's because you and your buddy went to the gym for the past 5 years
The driver's side was a problem because the threads on the tie rod end were really corroded and because I had trouble getting good leverage due to my arms'awkward position. Liquid Wrench did the trick. The driver's side tie rod end came out with much effort, but there was much less corrosion on the threads.
