Exclamation Attn: Gino and AWD_DAN

Hey,

I installed the steering bushing yesterday, and while doing so found out the one of the hole on the passengerside is rethreading the bolt... turn it like one time, and then it gets stuck. My dad said to just put it in, and and tighten it, and that it would probably hold. Well, it's holding, but you can tell, turn left, and it's slow, kinda, plain. Turn right, and it's nice and sharp. Talked to Andrew and he said you guy can rethread the holes, and put in bigger bolts... maybe wednesday night... He's a great guy, he acted like it was no big deal, even though if a bolt were to come out... not good.

Whatever, i'll pay it, cause i do not want this bolt coming out... it could mean big crash So i'm going to take it easy, and not drive too fast on the freeway, keep around 60mph... and not turn hard...

Dan, how do those bushings feel in your car?

Man, now i really wish I had just had you install them for the $60 saturday...

Let me know what time you'll be in wednesday night, and i'll come by if you want to look at it...

I JUST put the car on the ramps and tightened the bolt down some more, useing a pipe as an extension on the wrench...

I hate when I screw up simple things!
