well my sinuses have been fucking me for the last week or so but thats not even the worst of it as of now. I took the probe out after alittle tinkering, took a corner, not fast mind you, and when i straightened out Thud SCCCAAAAPPPEEEEE the left drive shaft broke at the tranny and my tire went from being a straight 12:00/6:00 to a 9:00/3:00 angle, while the right tire is still at 12/6. So yeah this just happend about 30 min ago so im gonna have it flat bedded and just part the fucker and junk it. I have put over $800 into this thing. It was much worse that the seller described it to me when I baught it and have had nothing but problems. So fuck it…guess I’m depending on Mommy’s car for a while.
wait. I’m kinda lost, how can a busted half shaft do that? It sounds more like a tie-rod popped.
did you recently have the suspension on that side apart?
My guess is that when you put it back together you forgot to tighten a bolt, and didn’t have cotter pins>
hmmmmmm, this sounds familiar
:gotme:
:lol:
.
In with the tie-rod crowd, I’m placing money on the cotterpin.
tie rod or ball joint 50 dollar fixed odnt use used parts next time pussy.
Ball Joint went POP. Got some pics, will be up lata. I didint take it appart, I just had some work done to it has a brand new bolt in it so i duno.
Oh yeah…so as if thats not bad enough…my gramma is in the ER because they think she had a heart attack. This just goes to prove my theory that my family has been cursed by gypsies.
no ur just like me bad things happend in groups. r they bolt on or press in ball joints
sorry to hear about your grandmother… mine passed away last spring
sorry, but that looks sort of funny, its like a retarded step child with a lazy eye
dude that happends so often lol
So yeah his balljoint has a pinchbolt, and it was not properly tightened down. Replace the halfshaft, tighten the pitchbolt, and his car will be good as new. However if I owned that thing, I would run it off a very steep cliff.
Dizzam…friggin’ Opel.
If you want my old probe I still have the title somewhere in my house. That and it’s in PA.
Motion for a cutom title for Jeg: “WOE IS ME”
