Main seal blew out completely after being bad for a year. Right wheel bearing is toasted. If anyone has a shop that could press the old bearing out, and the new ones in that would be great. šŸ™‚ ---

Weā€™ll so far itā€™s going faster than planned, all suspesnion is in and ready to go. Brakes are on the car, so I might be able to get the roommate to help bleed it. Just in the processing of getting the timing lined up. Rear bank is being a bitch though. :tdown: After that point I just need to make a bracket to hold the exhaust do I donā€™t have a repeat of ā€œUhhā€¦ whereā€™s fuzzy did he die or something?ā€ ---

The new tires canā€™t grip for shit either, roasted through first, and part of second. Also appears to be a coolant leak, possibly from the radiator, so Iā€™ll take the mythbusters approach to that until I can pull the one from the parts car if needed. Iā€™ve been out there since noon though. Iā€™m done for the night Going to be a busy morning gotta: -Flush the brake system, stucks not having a power bleeder -Re-install entire front clip -Try and fix coolant leak -Attach engine damper -Double check suspension -Make new heat shield for the cats. -Re-torque subframe bolts Man, I am beat as fuck. On the plus side, got it timed perfectly the first time using a coat hanger to find TDC. šŸ™‚ ---

Depends, do you happen to have a 30mm deepwell socket, and a breaker bar. I also need to figure out what I did with that axle nut washer. Doh. ---

Seem to be good at this point, just heading out to get final supplies. Should be done in a hour or two, for the break-in cruise. šŸ™‚ Pencils eraser side down work great too. :tup: ---

_BUMP_ Update: -Front main seal is completely blown out (Which wouldnā€™t be an issue if it wasnā€™t conviently located 4 inches above the cat. Smoke shows FTW) -Bad Front right wheel bearing in the replacement spindles Basically I have to pull the front suspension off again, and find a shop to press the bearings out/in. Anyone know of a place that can do it super cheap. And for the crank bolt I couldnā€™t get it off with the starter, so this isnā€™t looking good.
