Success!

i flipped those shims around. very nice, no vibrations, and i've noticed a slight pickup on power, especially on the freeway, the car is a bit more responsive now and not as sluggish.

i figured i might as well change the u-joints while i'm at it. i have no idea which brand of u-joints are the best out there. do any of you have suggestions?

i saw the enola gay at the Steven Udvar center when i had a layover at Dulles in D.C.. this isn't the best picture of it (bigger plane in the background), but a picture of it's little brother.
