Back On My Feet Again!
And now the passenger door works properly again. Sure glad I didn't mess with adjustment while it was on lift bars!

Rip Torn
As the last post might suggest, I drove it to work on 9-28. Put about 500 miles on so far, in spite of torn boots. C4, 5 & 6 are buggered and started acting up. I got 10 years relief through >>> NUCCA <<< but it wasn't working any more so had to take a break. New images lead to new vector which seems to be working, that and fixing the bad recliner lever, so I'll see how things go.

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
The REALLY good news is that C5 didn't give me any trouble. Last time I was under the car, I rolled over onto my shoulder and it lit up like a nuclear explosion. Took me out of commission for a month. I think the root cause was broken ballast spring mounts on the La-Z-Boy recliner. Since I fixed those, NUCCA seems to be working again so hopefully I'm good for another 10 years or more.
And here's the Good: Cat-back and shafts came out quite easily.
Here's some Bad, but I think I can fix that.
Here's some more Bad.
I'm guessing that the transmission is sitting a bit low.
I'm also guessing this is why the transmission is a bit low.
And here's the Ugly.
What is this and are those cracks a problem?
I certainly won't touch it if I don't have to.
What else should I give attention to while I'm in there?
