Not sure how much extra time and mileage it would be tacking on to things though, I'm having trouble getting the map to let me change the route without adding it on as an extra loop that it wouldn't actually be.
I will tour around once your car is done... Nothing like a test drive up to Earl's eh?

BTW I officially have everything I need for your job... Got the last of it today and all is packed and ready

Re: Cross Country Feeler

Sounds good! Yes, the drive to Earl's is a good test. Lots of places along the way to stop if something falls apart!

Just kidding!

I will pack some things

Just an update, the car is packed (mostly) just to make sure everything would fit. I removed all passenger seats to make room. I do need some spring spacers for the rear, anyone have any experience with subie spacers??

i think the tranny's still good, but the front diff is toast. remember kids, that the CEL comes on for a reason and should not be ignored. nor should the fluids remain unchecked.
