Big-O Update

It was tough but we got all the new rear bushings, springs and shocks ready to be installed on the Big-O. That included bushings for the control arms, sway bar and mustache bar. Also put in a new differential mount.

Hot and tired is the word. Cleaned and painted the brake housings and added new brake cylinders and brake pads (the old ones were dead). All that is left is putting everything back on the car. That will be the fun part. Cleaning the grease off all those parts is grim. But the improved performance of the car will be delightful.

After the last two days I look forward to playing with plants again. So does my back. Get to see how the crape myrtles are doing tomorrow.

There is another nasty looking hurricane (Frances) out there coming our way so it will be another nervous week watching the weather channel. November can't get here soon enough.
