Yea, i am a smart ***. 2 on the bottom, one on the firewall up top behind some wires, and then one over on the drivers side fender behind some wires.

The one on the drivers side fender has always been a pain in the *** for me to get back on for some reason. it is a bolt, and getting it started is a pain in the ***.

Thanks a ton! Since then I have removed old steering link, put new one in, rebolted everything under the car, and I am now 'not' looking forward to bolting the heat shield and intake back on. I am only planning to put three of those things back in that heat shield tho :O bum nuts!

Anyway back to the car!
