Hmm if it's really the front crankshaft seal that is leaking, my shop said they will charge me $43 to replace it (parts and labor). If that's it than I'll just have my shop replace it so I can avoid any hassle.

Yeah, the seal is only like $10. I'm surprised they'd only charge $43 to replace it 'cause it's a minor PITA to change. I don't know if that's where yours is leaking though. That pic you took I can only see the back of the crank case by the transmission. If it's leaking from there is would be the rear crank seal (possibly), not the front. That's a lot more work 'cause the engine has to be removed to replace that. I'd just wait until you get a more firm diagnosis on where the leak is coming from. Crank seals don't go bad that often. Takes a lot of miles.

Yeah I get pretty good labor discounts since I work at the shop. My car only has 102k so hopefully that's not the case. Will find out soon.

ya, though I think it was longer then 6-7 months all told, I documented it

Right now I have to change the damn subframe, I am going to pick up one at a local wrecking yard and take it to a wielder and have those mount points strengthened.

^Yeah, I've been lucky so far and my PS rack mounts seem to be fine so far. Surprising really considering the extra stress I put on them, but they haven't really been exposed to any condition where they would rust or anything, and my sub-frame has been replaced one time. Just lucky I guess.

If I had known about that issue back when I still had my MIG welder and I had my engine out last, I would have gone ahead and beefed them up just as a precaution. Now it will just have to wait.

Here's a comparison shot with my 3k HIDs and the LED flood lights.

I think the HIDs have a more "concentrated" light beam since it was in a reflector bowl but dispertion wise the LEDs do it more evenly.

Well now.

Chaos approve!?!?

Why aren't they on the car??

looks better than i expected!

Mount them on faggot.


BTW wheels always look better once the tires are mounted and vise-versa.

Sorry guys. Will be awhile before they are on the car. Im doing alot of work before spring comes. Need new axle boots on driver and passanger side axles. They are leaking axle grease. Need new front strut mounts. (Dont use an impact to bolt them on the strut tower...) need 2 more bbs wheels to complere complete the set. Need new tail lights. And a few other things.

The bbs wheels will be put on the rear of car tomorrow (since I pnly have two) so I can support the car better. The car has no wheels on, its up in the air. Front is held by 2 jack stands. Rear is up by one jack right in the center. Front has no wheel hubs on, no brakes, no struts. I took all that off yesterday. Wheels will be put on the rear so I can drop the ass end and pull the axles out and send em in for boot replacement. Im afraid if I tug on the axles that I could rock the car off the jack stands. So I want to put the rear on the ground and move the jack to the front for extra support.

So no pics for awhile till all this is done... and I cant put wheels on front to get a side pic of car to see how they look. So we will just have to wait.

Why do you only have two?

All he could afford lol

Yup. Buying 2 more soon.

Oh god. lol

Meh. Ive got so much sht to buy. Its not like the car is moving anytime soon. Still got alot to do before the car is back on the ground. She has been in the air for about a month now.

You only bought 2 lmfao

>inb4 sleepy can't afford the other two
