last weekend i went to a junkyard and found a 98 240. i wanted the hubs. went back the next week and the fronts were gone... so i tried to get the back ones. meanwhile, it starts pouring rain in the mountains and i freze my ass of trying to get the hubs off, but i dont have a socket to fit the axle nut... drove for an hour and found one (1 1/2" btw) and went back. its 3:00 now and the place closes at four. undid everything, but couldnt pull the hubs off the splines. times up. didnt get them, damn.
and today i wrecked my 92...again. ive got an 89 on the way, wednesday...but still. worst luck ever.
anyway, what should i do with the f'd 92. the control arm is bent along with the tie rod (not sure), and the brace that the tension rod bolts to snapped on impact? those are the main parts, but i just replaced half those things last month, from an accident in the snow season.
