Or a body part

 

Found a 4th hole in the trunk

 

I saw it get kicked up and was bracing to loose a tire. It was big sharp and metal

 

This is exactly why automobiles are becoming so expensive. All the extra sensors and ECUs required for monitoring this sensors are driving costs through the roof! Imagine if we could get another early base first gen new! They'd cost so much less than the offerings out there now

 

Could've been worse... didn't go into the windshield, I'd call that a win. Sucks though.

 

Few years back, I had someone toss a brick over a fence just as I was passing by. Damn thing impacted at the front edge of my hood. I was doing about 40ish. Huge dent in the hood. Talk about pissed - damn kids! Lucky though, could've went right into the driver side windshield. I shudder at the thought. @BartMaster1234 will know where - just before the Shasta Co.

 

I know exactly where that is. I take the San Mateo Bridge every Friday.

 

Used? $30 each max

 

Idk, what does napa sell their new ones for? Id look at that and compare.

 

Like 80$ I think.

 

So $60-70 for a rebuilt oem CV with an oem rebuild kit sounds fair to me. Napa axles are generally regarded as the best of the parts store brands.

 

That was just going off what I remember when I got a price 2 years ago.


still running torn boots

 

My dad ran with torn boots on his '86 for years. My 92 went a year before we replaced.

 

I’ll run em till they start making noise or break

 

There is, yes. I have a RAM mount there. You’ll need an M6 Bolt. I recommend the two part Articulating Arm, as it’ll allow for better fitment and prevent collision with the steering wheel.



CAUTION: If you remove any grab handle with the stock hardware, it uses a JIS screw head. You have to use an impact driver or you will strip it.

Ask me how I know.

 

No, I already had a handle there from the factory.

Yes that is a RCR mount. I really didn’t like it, it never fit right. This picture is about three years old. I had to bend the bracket to have the antenna sit 90 degrees.

I have a CBI CB Mount now and I’m much happier.

 

Special for today is

 

2700 in damage to the bottom of the car. Damnit lol
