if it is drum brakes in the back just drive it in reverse and hit the brakes a few times if not there should be a cable running under the car with an adjustment on it some where like a bike brake

Me too, got antibiotics this morning, my throat looked "nasty" from what the doc said. the ibuprofen keeps the fever at bay but studying for my midterms is...well sucky.

My dad hahha a tad shorter than me, looks kinda like me but slightly balding and no glasses. He also has a large horn on his cart....if that helps.

YA i agree. I want to get my car out bad! sounds like I may have to get them on in March if I want the alignment guy to align it.

Do you go to Jeff the Alignment guy? I'm curious how good he is (I do hear a lot of great things about him) and what he charges?

Living hour by hour on ibuprofine i dont think is recommended for long, maybe its worse than a heavy weekend of drinking for your kidney's? idk but now sounds a good time to do homework too! Everyone guess my temp! last night I woke up with sweaty sheets so its pretty warm... I was thinking like 103 this weekend...holy **** my fingers are freezing and im getting bad chills... oh i feel like....that movie in the antarctic were that dog was a carrier for that fucked up alien killing everyone, and they turned on each other and committed suicide to end it... i hope my roommates are safe from my zombie attack.
stay away from the duluth hookers next time.

I messaged him a few times on the auto-x forum...everyone says he's the best and don't doubt it.

He told me it's best to visit him in the winter time...once March hits his schedule fills up fast and it may take a while to get in.

I think we should all get are power steering motors replaced at the same time. I dont like / trust dealers but Dev says he's got a guy that's awesome so Id be willing to give him a shot.

Dev, set it up!...we'll do like 10 of us all in a row, it'll be awesome!!!

oh, btw we have a recall on are PS motors. Free parts FTW!

I think we should have a get together/install party for our Pedders TC struts/shocks spacers....how many of us are getting them? Mine are ordered (ordered on 2/26) and should be in the next shipment in 3 weeks or so.

Whats your name and age...helps to sorta get an idea on who's who

Most of us MN guys are in are mid 20's but a few are older and younger. If you've never met any other members and or attended a meet it can be overwhelming the first time. Lots of us have know each other for years now...even those of us from different states. So being that new guy not knowing anyone can be tough, but were all pretty laid back, like to get wild and crazy (ok, some of us are loco), kick back a few drinks and just have a good time.

You have to start somewhere!

whats up! ya join us if you want to head down! We are all easy to talk to and laid back...unless you are a psychotic murderer or something...then well...we wont go there
cruising with others helps stay awake as well for the 5-6 hour drive down...bring a walkie talkie if you have one too.

i got it covered. i was actually up there last night with tj and asked about it. they're still waiting on the parts there. but if you all wanted to roll through i bet we could

i took tj and talked with my guys up there and odds are today when his car is up there he'll get his rear breaks covered. i'm also supposed to get reimbursed for the work they did on my exhaust since we had a recall on the cat and that's what it ended up comin down to like i figured from the start
