Message	I dropped everything and drove to the hardware store just to pick one of those up right before they closed when I was doing that job - those nuts DO suck. And just when you think you've got them all and it's ready to come off, you find ANOTHER one tucked even DEEPER down into that bend. Sucks. You don't have to live in a bubble just because someone else caught the flu. Make your decision on your ability to trust yourself. - NytWolf 15:49:05 12/17/06 I was previously a aviation mechanic and avionic technician and this car is harder to work on than Aircraft. - Hocuz77 03:04:56 02/28/06
