    I was going to mention that myself..
    Looks to be where the temper stops??
    Or just poorly tempered?

    That needs to get framed in a shadow box and hung on the wall as art. She'll LOVE it!

    Sure double or nothing! I would think 13.9 is do able with E7s assuming the car has 3.73 ish gear and drag tires.

    so since I already owe you 5.00, what do you think about double or nothing the neglected 90 LX coupe goes 13.9 or better with E7TE's ?

    I had a feeling you wouldn't have overwhelming problems getting it out when you could get a minute to coerce it. Good to hear you got it.

    Got a free hour this afternoon. Put the broke axle in used a c clamp between the flange and backing plate, used a #4 mini sledge to pound it in until the c-clip fell out. My broom handle was too long to fit in with the one car garage. I found a crap piece of wood that I trimmed to fit. Pounded it the other way with the dead blow.

    i have the stub off of the axle that i broke when I put nitrous on my camaro... it's in my tool box in one of the side drawers, 10 yrs later, I chuckle every time I see it....

    breaking stuff sucks, but breaking stuff is COOL!!

    thanks Dan, its already on jack stands at my house w/ the rear apart. My trailer is still winch less so with no rear tires and no winch it might be hard to load.

    no, hopefully this weekend. I have to change the oil in the TDI, and my Brother In-Laws truck pucked the engine so I may end up trailering it for him so who knows when it will get looked at.
