Seems like once I fix something, another thing breaks. After countless hours of work finding out why my belt is flying of, this happens! This is car is driving my NUTS!
The story
I thought I fixed my belt issues and I was waiting for a break in the rain to take her out. Finally around 7ish the streets look good to go. I find a nice little stretch of road. I come to a stop put it in first, dump the clutch and go! The car reved up to 6500 like nobody's bussiness. Slame it into 2nd, it grabs hard, then the car fell flat on it's face, I reved it a few times and knew right away that I broke the half shaft. Never had ANY wheel hop with the car, this time or ANYTIME! I haven't even looked under the car yet. Called up my mom's boyfriend and had him tow me back to my house with his TrailBlazer. I was only about 1 mile away from home so it wasn't that bad. On the bright side of things, I just found out what those 2 extra holes are in our front bumper, next to the fog lights. They are for 2 toe straps to go thur so you don't mess your bumper up!
Great, after $1,000's into m engine my damn CV shafts take a crap on me. It couldn't happen at a better time, when I'm flat broke!
My options.
1. Send the broken one out to suburban driveline to see if they can fix it.
2. buy a brand new one from Steve over at tousely ford (anyone know cost?)
3. Buy Level 5's for $1300, $1300 that I DON'T HAVE! So I'm thinking option 3 is out unless I sell my life or something
Any input or commets would be great. Just really didn't need this right now! Seems like I've had a shit storm of problems with this beast...I gotta have some good luck coming to me soon...Please PRETTY Please!
