Travel day to colorado. Not looking forward to the drive, but at least we will be taking my moms X3 instead of the gf focus. POS. I did an oil change, coolant drain and fill, AC recharge, headlight bulb change yesterday on the focus in +110 degrees Fun..

Leaving in a few minutes for the hospital. Checking for kidney stones.

@JC3 Help!!! Get ur azz back in here ( literally ) and take one for the team! :stirthepot:

Good luck Rusty... this has been bothering you for quite a number of weeks now.

Good luck brother, hope everything goes well :tup:

Morning all, stopped in briefly earlier but Zoren was on a tear and I felt it was best to let him work off all that excess energy without interruption. How's everybody doing today?

Russ, hope the hospital trip goes as well as possible.

:iagree:

Happy :leghump: Day everyone :hello:

Need some offset wrenches for this transaxle oil pan job. Tempted to buy a Hazard Freight set just so I can round off a few bolts and make the job more difficult :rock:

That's a real Lein move right there. Don't forget to loosen the shifter linkage bolt too.

Think some of these bolts are fuk'd already from denting the pan. Or they were installed by Godzilla at the factory. Definitely tighter than the specified 6 ft-lbs torque. They're even giving the impact gun a bit of trouble :ugh:

The stick shift is first stage security for the Z. But ever since that MI trip, I have started removing the shifter linkage bolt whenever I park the car as a secondary security measure :tup:

Back from the hospital. Feels like I've been dipped into a vat of KY Jelly. They did an ultra sound around my mid section. Should know the results early next week.

Got some lumber for the deck I'm building for the pool. 4, 4x4x8, 6, 2x6x8, 2 boxes of screws, 3, 80lb bags of concrete came out to $120.00. Still have to get the decking. That's going to be another $120.00. The deck size will be 8ft x 6ft.

I'll bet Zoren feels the same way most days.
