Monday, March 10, 2008 3:45 PM
first the bad news.

i wake up and im headin out the door to get to work. its 6:50 am -20° outside, brrr f-in cold.

head away from my house and get 2 blocks to the stop sign. i take off and @%#$ huh?!?!! so i coast to the sholder with the old hazards on and end up runnin home cuz my car does nothing in all gears i take my sweet time cuz i know i wont be making it into work on time post on here, bs, eat some breakfast, then call my boss. finally i go push my car off the street so it wont be towed.... few days later i tear her apart and come to find old clink and clatter axle down there, thats the culprit!!



ya so i rock my cf hood in the winter, what of it





hmmmm



cut her up







new for free cuz i did a 5 speed swap and luckily this is the one i bought




new wheel as u can see i need a new middle piece cuz there is a rub spot on the lower left






and pending install, i had enough car work for the day, plx dm-100 and sm-afr kit

Man... I'm going to be doing that exact thing on my roomate's car tomorrow... hoping the Iowa weather cooperates haha. Driver side broken axle FTFL!

I love the steering wheel too, that's my favorite J steering wheel ever by far. I rock one in my Beretta too. That exact year and style is hard to find.

eh, it looks better than driving around with the stock cavalier wheel with no air bag in it, but anyone that knows my car knows i really truly dont care about how it looks, i like the wheel tho its pretty nice

i didnt have it layin around it was warranted so it was free and it only took a few mins to swap out, its an easy job and i got the oil changed at the same time, the car drives like a million bucks now with new oil and new trans fluid

The wheel looks better in person for sure, a heck of a lot better than a big ole ugly air bag right in the middle of the steering wheel. In person it has a lot more depth, plus the feel is betta too. Hella nice buy for $3.

I know! I wish I had money though! Still no job here in Menomonie I also found out my boss told me he couldn't get me any work over spring break next week, so I'm kinda screwed there! I'll get one eventually. Just got to give it some time.

I don't blame you for the steering wheel swap in the Beretta. We got gypped for sure there. I'm swapping out for a different one once I get the chance (my Chevy school bus wheel is falling apart anyways). Either the one off the '91 cav I'm buying, or getting a Grant something. Probably trading up for the cav one, then eventually to a grant one anyways. I can't make up my mind on anything.
