My car hates me
my car is worse than a woman... pisses me off at least once a month last month i blew the tranny now this...
just did a turbo 350 swap under my TA been driving fine the whole time.. been in there under a month.. but drove great... today i drove it about ahalf houur away maybe 45 minutes.... towards the end of the trip something banged real hard under my car and i look to find out that my torque arm fell out of the 2 bushings... how you ask.. because the outer torque arm bushing decided to grow legs and walk off to god knows where... but i still have the bracket makes alot of sense right....
ANy idea why that might of happened and any idea of how to prevent it from happening again once i get it fixed?????
