Hi guys.. first post by me in a long time but with 2 kids running around and also being into R/C, attention was getting low considering the D.
I fix and maintain the car myself as i work on cars for a living. Plans with the car is to take the gearbox out one of these days to replace a bad rear crank oilseal.
Other than that a frame restoration is needed some time in the future unfortunaly, even if mine has exactly8973 miles on it.
Had to do a 2 yearly car inspection last week and came across a busted RHS steering rack bushing. Completely gone and wondering how long this thing was bad.
Feels like a different car after i fixed it. Had a custom bushing made out of POM plastic.

By the way, are there any different methods in locking the trailing arm to steering rack nuts beside the stock method?
