more drama

today jus as when i assume things sort out

when i was on westchester road i noticed a sorta slackness in the steerin
due to this i just went 10 or 15 mph below the speed limit
by the time i reach manor park i realised a slight return to normalcy and it continued this way up stony hill
when i reached this deep right hander it returned a bit and then shortly after goin up a steep hill the just start wobble
i instinctively halted so quickly i stalled
after an inspection i found out that only the right wheel was turning while the left wheel was moving freely
my first assumption was the rod ends that is still my assumption tmrw ill check
so i just had to baby the car home while my brother walked along side me

i had lowering springs but apparently i only had for the front

i almost installed them without new bushings

is a good thing the garage refused to install them without the bushings

the rear lowering kit is simply some 1 inch blocks and longer u-bolts....I strongly recommend it, does wonders for the handling
