    Well, posting the same exact thing in 2 different threads is pretty bad. As far as the ball joint, it'll be fine for a few weeks. Just go easy on the car.
    No projects. Life consumes my time and money.

    i think this thread came up when the server went down or something like that, everybody had like 5 different posts depending on h ow many times they hit refresh. i didnt find out about the repost thing with the refresh button until i went back to the website without letting it redirect me to there.

    Be very careful driving. My upper ball joints are so bad that I'm afraid to even go down the street.
