Go figure I can back a 53 foot trailer in between 2 other trucks and hit nothing but cant back a full size Chevy out of a driveway without hitting a mailbox lol

Well it is a Chevy

Well I plan on going out there a few more times this summer for sure.


Tomorrow its hopefully replace the CHE rear lower control arms, straighten out the alignment, no more need for race track camber settings, tires cost too much. And replace the stock bushings in my MGW shifter that should have been changed out the month after I got it like 8 years ago, lol.

Oh yeah, whats the ideal pinion angle? 2 degrees? its been so long.

Hello Tom!


LCA's alignment, and shifter bushings are in!

Like a new car I swear!

Those CHE LCA's were so bad the bushing sleeve just fell out on removal.
It was oval shaped. That would explain noises and rear end wiggles, lol.

Shifting is back to being like butter!

Nice! Nothing like the feel of a smooth rear end.

It's such a great summer so far. It's hard to get online when the weather is not like winter. Graduations, birthdays, events and all the other things that there are to do. Also fixing and breaking things. The Stang is also one of the better highlights to each day.
