Is it me or just my SC,or all SC birds.. every 5 minute job I try to do,
turns into a 5 days.
I am going on two months to rebuild suspension,front and rear.
And I do not have one wheel done yet.
I gave up on the rear suspension could not get the last two nuts off
either lower control arm.Got down to the last nut,both the same
nut.One on each lower control arm.
So I went to try and rebuild the front suspension.I started on the drivers
side,& I finaly got it apart.Started to install Mach VIII SPINDLES.Got
down to the swaybay end links nuts.Could nut get the lock nuts to tightin with out the ball spining.So I went to town and bought non locking nuts.
I got them to tightin down then.Now I am on the nut on that holds the
spindle to the lower control arm.I have tried every thing to get this nut on
with out spinning the ball joint.I tried the jack hammering,ect to stop
the ball joint from spinning.I went to town to find a non-locking nut
to use but this metric size crap is hard to find in my area.
In another week I will hit the beginning of three months to do this job.
I started this to job of up grading to the MACH VIII suspension parts.
So I could put bigger brakes on.I am totaly freaked out that I will
have to spend a 1/4 of a year for a brake upgrade.
Every time I get to the point of giving up .And posting my problems
on this worthless engineered car.And making a assss-out of me.
I can then go out ,and this worthless car will just fall together.
So I am writing this to make an assss-of-self so my car will be workable.
Fingers crossed Randy
