I've been tempted to go but then again, why go beat on my car in an 1/8th mile drag when an automatic 1990 Mustang GT with a cheap blower would likely kill me. I'll save it for the 1/4 mile track!

I must say that although this makes no sense, the car feels faster now! Maybe its a combination of the new diff fluid (man there were some chunks in there!), the axles, and a freshly tightened rear suspension; but the car seems to pick up faster and the steering feels tighter. When i went to remove the drivers side hub, i had my 18" breaker bar with a 24" pipe over it and was ready for battle. I get ready to turn it and the damn thing comes loose with little to no effort. This was definitely not the case for the passenger side, but man that's concerning how it got so loose. As far as i know the hubs have never been pulled off the car, so i wonder if it just worked its way loose? Either way glad it's fixed now, may be worth a $14 34mm socket to ya to check yours!
NO SIR ,it will not cost you a dime for me to help you out,i know how its going work and like a said the dss guys are top notch but they have alot more customers than i do so if you want me to get this done i will personaly take care of it,i will not bagger you anymore..lol
