    My thanks to HH for the brake work and instructions on how to do it properly. Also want to give Jeff props for running into town to pick up some needed supplies. It was nice to have everyone over and glad you enjoyed lunch. Sorry about the rancid armadillo smell coming off the mufler...

    I'll sponsor another tech day sometime this summer for those who need a place to work or just want to be a part of the NMC crowd

    Tim, I owe you an apology, I sat there in the car and thought 'I need to get out and clean up the oil and gear oil that dripped onto Tim's nice floor' then I promptly started the engine and drove home. Remembered the oil about 1/2 of the way back to Frisco.

    I owe you a beverage the next time you come to Keller's.

    Sorry

    It was no problem at all. That's why I had the floor coated but I'll never say no to a free beer

    The shift boots, I can feel immediately, everything is smoother and cooler. If the overflow fluid ever burns off of the transmission I'll be a bit happier.

    Someone's going to have to teach me how to drive this dang car for me to feel much out of the sway bars. So far I don't even know what I'm supposed to be looking for or if I'm driving hard enough to bring them into play.

    No problem. I'll take you for a spin.

    If you can't tell a difference you aren't getting the most out of your car.

    n.b. to jsforrest:

    Posts 76-78 are tongue in cheek and not meant to be taken seriously.

    The last line in post 75 is truth. You may have installed them too soon.

    The second-last line in post 75 is such an obvious set up to a joke that it smells like a trap.

    William, go out to 114 and show this fellow how well his new sway bars will work driving in a straight line. He'll be impressed
