I've done so much car work in the last 2 weeks, I'm actually getting sick of it. Here's the list of what I've had to do.
'88 Buick: PS Pump - leak and bad bearing Harmonic Balance - rubber cracked and pully delaminated Passenger side half shaft - outer CV boot exploded '03 Jeep Grand Cherokee: Front brakes and rotors Inner front axle seals - passenger side was leaking and may have been the cause of the brake issues Transfer case fluid change - it was just time Passenger front window regulator and motor - cable broke I've got about $750 in just parts, I don't even want to know what all this would have cost at service shops. Anyway, just venting. |

I've done a ton in the last 6 weeks also. Laid off again so I'm taking whatever side work I can pick up.
Worst amount of work, best turn out money wise. Bought '97 Saturn SC2 with knocking engine, nice body, trashed interior - $475 (killed me to pay that, was buying them for $250-300 last winter) -Took trans and factory CD player for my GF's car. -Took almost new set of BFG tires + AL wheels for my beater. -Took computer, ign. module, coil packs, plug wires, random sensors, and rear disc brakes for spares. Junkyard called my Craigslist ad, gave me $325, AND picked it up. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) PS- I got $15 for the busted trans at the scrapyard too.
