Another R pulled back from the brink ! More miles of motoring pleasure in its future, if past history is any clue. Glad it found a new home in Kalamazoo.

Drove the car home and found/fixed the main source of the growl; pass hub bearing. It was so loud I couldn’t hear the ds hub growling. That’s my next opportunity! Spenser sold me a great car with a lot of maintenance performed. It turned out timely because my Laser blue 00v70r m56 tranny blew up two days later and I’m driving the car (I call her Volvitus) daily atm.

The Mercedes Sprinter diesel installation in the 760 is wicked cool. I'll see if Dan can convince the fellow to write it up in the Brick forum.
