Gee Can a Day Go by without something else screwing up?
I've been trying to reinstall my 3.54 Differential for weeks without something else breaking on my Hawk.
First it was the disc break caliper coming loose which required taking the disc off and finding some new bolts, then it was the P/S Pump leaking, and of course a P/S hose broke the same week. So I wound up replacing the entire system including installing a NOS control valve, but then I had to take it all apart to change the pitman arm from my old one to the new. My truck lock broke so I had to get the little one to crawl in form the rear seat to undo the lock hasp and she was barely strong enough to twist the ratchet but succeeded with lots of encouragement mustering up all of her inner strength, which is not alot (she's 13, eats like a bird and weighs not much more. My passenger reclining seat is on it's way out and Caroline is flying in the rear seat every time I punch the throttle and She's not happy (got the parts yesterday to fix it along with the deck lid)
This morning I take Caroline down to the Ford Dealership to pick up her Edge (she getting the navigation and My touch fixed) and she flies into the back seat again reminding to fix that seat today. Well we park the Hawk and walk in the dealership and I come out to a pool of antifreeze coming out of the heater core!
Boy my list of fixes is getting longer as the days progress closer to that real great weather.
So I guess I better 'quitmybitchen" and get out to the shop and get something fixed
I think I'll start on my differential first since I can bypass the heater core and still drive the Hawk.
Have a great day
