Default Just arrived from 928 Intl

This just came in from 928Int'l to my doorstep.

It looks like a piece of jewelry!

I'm sure this willl stop that pesky vibration at 135mph!

steering rack bushings replaced, fixed sloppy tie rod end, I'm ready for California speedway for the season opener in LA!

Thanks! i I think on the other thread, i was linked to the harbor freight version of the tool and it was a little bit of a fight, but it worked with a big BANG as it separated it . that thing was STUCK! i just sorry i had to abuse the lower ball joints by banking on the pickle fork at first to get it loose.
