another weekend project gone bad...
well i've been planning my front end rebuild for a while now, was gonna do it las weekend but i couldnt. so when i got home thursday night, i began ripping the car apart (i have fri and sat off) and got the entire pass side apart before calling it a night. went out yesterday and got everything but 1 bolt on the drivers side; the front lca bolt. it began to rain so i went to work (better tools) to change the struts off the spindles and also press the balljoint and bushings out of the pass side. ran into problems w/ the pressing so that took me like 4 hrs to do and it was still raining when i got home. today, i put together most of the pass side (still gotta put the spring in) and also spent a good deal of time trying to get the damn bolt out of the drivers side lca. stupid thing is seized in the bushing and i've been hammering it and spraying the &%^% out of it w/ PB Blaster but it's only a 1/4 of the way out and hopefully i'll be able to repair the threads (when it finally comes out) otherwise i'll have to wait a few days for a new bolt to be ordered. and its raining now, and i gotta find a ride to work tomorrow. this blows! i dont mind working on my car at all, but almost everything you do runs into problems. i'm gonne be a huge supporter of anti-seize from now on lol sorry to waste space but i'm just pissed and need to vent; also open to any suggestions.
