It's hard not getting pissed at her for being SO DAMN HARD TO WORK ON - BLOODY OLD STUBBORN BISNITCH! I think turning this into a mod meet might be pretty fun. When is the last time we all got together for a large mod meet? DMD? Kim 1995 Contour GL Needs less "needs more"

Hey we could even make a how 2 video lol Too bad bradness doesn't have my subframe done, we could be doing some serious work hehe The only problem I ever have (and maybe because it was a 4 bolt type arm) is getting that arm down enough to get it back into the knuckle. IIRC you do have to pop the ball and the tie, the press the axle out the hub. Last edited by jd2-98s; 07/22/06 01:56 AM.

Dan from Derry, NH Mike and I can meet you at 10:15 at the weigh station on I-93 south (a bit after exit 4, but before exit 3, in Windham). Elky & Haroon? We can meet you at 10:45 at the Hannaford/Bally's plaza in Lowell (close to Elky's house) From there we plan on taking 495 to 95S then down route 24S and into Newport.
