Sounds like it'd be easier to just unscrew things then pry them off. I'd chalk that to stupidity. My wad is blown for awhile myself. Got lots of nice accessories though. Have tail lights coming and that's it for awhile. Bills.

Did my best to align my lights tonight. I live on the side of a big hill and just kinda winged it on the barn doors. If I get high beamed tomorrow I'll know they're too high.

Last weekend I changed the ball joints, tie rod ends, idler arm, cv shafts, stabilizer bar end links, shocks, and contro arm bushings. Y esterday I got it back from an alignment and had the codes checked, P0147 and P0300. Looks like I've got some more work to do.

i put some more miles on mine today. another rescue job. this time one of my brothers. his Cavalier decided to shread the idler pulley bearing, and wrap the belt around everything.

funny, he had the same thing happen to his Malibu last Summer too.

he threw some fuel in my truck for doing it, so that's something else done today.



went to wash it after all was fixed & done ('cause it's +8*C here today!) and the damn carwash had removed all of the wash brush attachments from the bays.

'course i realized that after i had tossed in $10 in toonies!
