I have faith in you! You can do it bro!

 

Man if you need help ask on of the dudes that's there... that is what they are there for. I mean they aren't going to do it for you as they have their own lil projects throughout the day but they will help.

 

Thanks to everyone who pumped me up by telling me this job is easy... Now I messed things up worse!!! I KNEW I should've taken it to a shop!

 

I am replacing all the parts now, but I need a front Evo VIII strut or I won't be able to drive out of here. Does anyone have a used one I can get...?

 

I tried calling S&R (doesn't have one).
1320 Engineering, no answer
Judge Racing, voicemail

Who else can we call around here to get Alex a strut???

 

Time's up. Gotta clean up shop. Good news is that I replaced three. Bad news is that I need to find a strut! The car is going to stay here until I do.

Next time you guys say "Ah man, that's easy!" I want you to know this: I have lowered the bar. There is novice level, then there is ME! I just wanted to do something on my own, for once. It felt good. However, next time one of you guys are coming with me!!! LoL

 

Wish I would have checked the thread earlier. I was off most of today and could have tried lending a hand. Even though I'm not much better lol.

 

Gotta go back tomorrow.... hopefully I can locate that strut early so I dont pay for garage time for nothing!

 

I was just out your way for work.
LA and San Fran.
Didn't have time to meet up though.

 

Found a strut. Gotta pick it up, then back to the garage. I'll be back in business in no time! Wish me luck!

 

U called Cody?

 

Wow dude. Sorry I missed your call yesterday, I was already at school. If you're still at the shop around 1100 I'll stop by. Although, I'm sure you know what you're doin now!

 

Next time let me know ahead of time. I'm always down to help. I'm no certified mechanic but I'm a jack of all trades and a BIG do-it-yourselfer. And remember, it is easy... for the experienced!

 

So, what's the deal bro? You gonna suck it up and buy it? I'm pretty sure you will not regret it down the road and it's a gateway to learning more about your car. And as we all know... Knowledge = Horsepower!

 

I'll be at the shop around that time. I am easing to buy the strut now, then off to the base.
