I should be free on Saturday if you want someone else to smoke your cigs but otherwise not help

Gotta be done before 7pm for the blackhawks game though.

Hokay. No pressure. I can't bring the car up there unless it's on a trailer, though.

Heh i quit quite a time ago.

It'll be at my house in Soufport, so we can be done at any time we feel like. Any chance you can bring jack/jackstands? I haven't really finished gathering a second set of tools and stuff to use at the house.

Text me let me know, i still have the same number.

So far nobody has diff seals in stock. Super.

Considering just chancing it, but i could see how that would sound stupid. The seals in the diff looked ok.

I was glad to see the Blackhawks kick the Ducks in the teeth and I want them to stomp the Lightning (becauseFlorida) but that's all you'll get from me.

Was reading and going to suggest napa.

Did i misunderstand that you're going to swap a 3.9 INTO your car, or are you swapping it OUT OF your car? cuz it has the 3.9 already right?

This. 3.9 isn't enough swag. Need more swag. More RPMs = more swag.

Even my rust-free cars get the sawzall treatment because **** me, right?

Sawzall balljoint because i hate everything. by concealer404, on Flickr


Thenuge26 came and shared my pain for a few hours. Got ****-all done because reasons. I'm now "that guy" in the neighorhood with a car on jack stands in his driveway. Yay. Gotta run up to the other garage and get my nut splitters and a dead blow hammer this week. I have game plans to get past the current hurdles. (******* balljoint won't tighten, and the remnants of endlinks in my lower control arms refuse to come out)

I'm the only one that mows their grass in a timely fashion and doesn't have kids that run screaming through the entire neighborhood, and the entire neighborhood's lawns at all hours.

They'll live.
