Sweet so I put the axle in the other day, and now I Have a leak of tranny fluid. I'm 90% sure it is the axle seal. From what I've read it is just a matter of prying them out and using a mallet to put them back in, but I'm still not happy. Also now my power steering pump squeals like a sob when you turn the wheel to lock. Go throw some more tension on it and hopefully that solves it.

That is pretty fricken cool, just looks like it needs some clear coat sprayed on it, looks really fabricy on the roof. But for like the arm control and handle covers, that is awesome. I was going to carbon fiber my center counsel lid with real cf, but if that stuffs cheap I might just do that,

I realllllly want my debit card to show up. Already getting ready what I want to order. I think I'm going to order some of that cf vinyl too, looks like I could do some cool stuff with it. I got pulled over yesterday for my exhaust... was driving on hwy 100 at 10 on a Wednesday with my gf, just left Culver's. Hwy 100 is where everyone cruises, so I'm going exactly 40, the speed limit, and he followed mee off the hwy to tell me it was illegal. No ticket, just told me it is illegal, awesome, cops love my car. While I was waiting a Teg went past me that was super loud and a cop came out of nowhere going like 75 to catch up to him and pulled him over like 5 blocks ahead of me lol.

Picked up my new axle seal, and bought 2 more quarts of mtf, the 2 I put in a few days ago didn't last long lol. So $28 later and hopefully this should be the end to my leak. Going to put this in tomorrow morning then off to the junk yard and to buy some fireworks.

Hmm looking at some rims.
http://milwaukee.craigslist.org/pts/1823349437.html
Seem rare and expensive, found a site that there were like $167 each, and if I paint them I think they'll look real good.
