Did the worlds fastest left hand drive axle change on Shagg, diagnosed by bad knocking on float, which disappeared on braking or acceleration……

New York requires them to document the wheel they removed to inspect brakes and write it on the invoice.

Headliner day today. Got the material glued this morning, it's not perfect but that'll do. I'll probably grow an extra pair of hands before I do this job again 
I'll let the glue cure for a bit then start cutting the holes.

I have some rust to treat on the 940..I'd rather be gluing another headliner !
I've been helped by the fact I had a spare headliner, and already made an attempt at regluing so all the foam was removed

Started the process to replace the upper torque bushing, 9434263, and the bracket flopped around like a stunned mackerel.

If the weather cooperates, the press-in part happens next. This car may join Neil in the PITA Club.

We both seem to be responsible for wrangling reluctant Rs into submission. We shall prevail over the Dark Force.
