    I'd just like to say...FML! :frusty::bananadead:

    Got the OGT back down on her tires this morning and made a half-assed attempt to set the toe, but something Effin' weird's going on with the front end. Either my brand new inner tie rod on the drivers side is bad, or I'm going to have to spend the cash to get a new steering rack guide sooner than I had hoped. I'm getting pretty well disgusted with her. :rant:

    Well, the driver side tire is sloppy. You can wiggle it back and forth and feel a hard knock. The boot on that side moves with the tire, but the other side doesn't move. Basically it's acting like the inner tie rod is bad, but it's brand new. Now, it wouldn't be the first time a brand new part was defective, but when I was replacing it, I noticed that the driver side of the steering rack piston had a bit of up and down play while the passenger side was tight. I'm thinking that the sloppiness and the knock I'm feeling when wiggling the tire is the tie rod pushing up and down on the rack piston. There is a fix for that; I need to replace the steering rack guide with one from a 2001-2004 model and it's supposedly really easy, but the parts to do it are like $80 (which unfortunately will put the final nail in the coffin for my Gulches ambitions).

    The downside is, I need to fix this issue before I have it aligned in case I end up having to warranty the inner tie rod and replace it.

    Which also means I'll be attending the Tuning Party in the Honda. :puke:
