I took the wing off today to get resurfaced and realized I need to fix the trunk rust sooner then later, midwest car FTW.

Sent it to the workshop to have that clunking sound checked out when downshifting... Turns out the driveshaft mount was worn out and wobbled greatly when downshift, the rear differential mount was worn out too... Can't really recall the specific part names but sounds expensive to me...

One of the parts highlighted in red, not my photo though.

Get the torque solution rear diff mounts. It will help avoid this wear on your driveshaft bushings in the future! Plus your shifts will be much more solid

Zapped a CEL. Took her for a drive to make sure it stayed zapped.

$0.00 FTW!

I put some bright-*** strobe light on the back of my Evo. So I can turn it on when people behind me forgot to turn off their high beam. Lol
Also carry a bat in the car just in case that don't work!!!
