I think everyone is in hibernation mode!

Can't wait for it to warm up so that I can get my car worked on/ polished up and running for summer time. I am itching to get this car back on the road!

Oh and anyone know where to pickup a Honda Civic steering wheel 2001. Mine has worn through and is all squishy in some spots. Next up will likely be the suspension and re-doing all the bushings. Does Auto-Zone or someone like that lend/rent hydraulic presses? I know I won't get the bushings out otherwise.

Burning them out does not remove the sleeve on the OE bussings


You can pick up a cheap press from Harbor Freight Jim. You will be bitching after the first on and sure you will be Facetiming me to yell .. LOL

Oh come on I only did that ONCE to you. I have seen the ~100 presses and they are very tempting. I only wish I had a bigger garage or a BIG SHED to put it in to store.

I am tempted to build myself a shed under my deck as that space is essentially useless. Might have to build that into the plans if I re-build my deck one day. Kill 2 birds with one project. Just would need the funding.

I went to Maine for a big snowboard trip from Thurs to Now (Monday night) and I didn't really have much to catch up on. Spring is coming - I hope...

Went looking the had a special for 99.00 and shipping was less than 10 bucks. Looks like I have a Birthday present possibility in the works. I can then pair it up to my impact gun I got from them. Boys and their toys.
