Yeah, Kate and I ran errands most of the morning. We motored the Juke.

Back in from the garage. I was able to get some parts back on the car without taking more off.

I swapped the element and tightened to spec so, fingers crossed, next oil change will be a breeze.

To the average person, they would've just taken it to a shop, but I just love wrenching!

I've got some pics for you

Stay tuned...

Sorry.

Upload a pic of you bent over the fender of your car and all will be forgotten.

We turned a 9 hour visit with my buddy and his fiance into a little over 5 hours of wrenching and about 60-70% through the installation of Z1 CSC Elimination Kit. I wouldn't wish this install upon anyone except my worst enemies and someone with better tools (most pointedly, a lift) who just loves doing the work.

We enjoyed a wonderful home cooked lasagna dinner made by my wife. We took plenty of breaks, and the girls did more than their share of day drinking considering they lasted until 10:30 pm.

I"m going to do some clean up around the house, which should leave me with just enough energy to post up some more details and pics of the work before I pass out. We are planning to finish up the work tomorrow morning.
