Found another jewel while chaning my oil!
by yamanx 11/12/2011, 7:09 pm
So as I was waiting for the oil to drain I did my usual look at everything and make sure it all is snug and good to go and when I got to the driver side of the car I found this...
The control arm bolt had only 2 threads left in the hole, when I went to grab it it damn near fell in my hand. Got it back in there all torqued down but still super scary wondering how much longer I had to go had that gone unnoticed.
