After yesterday’s debacle, I took it easy and finally got the bolt out of the passenger side and got it replaced. I was going to hold off on the driver side until I got the new impact gun but they had deep well metric 1/2 inch impact sockets and an adjustable breaker bar both on sale at HF for ITC members. Saved $20 between the two, another savings for the membership. And the breaker bar is really cool because it’s expandable. So while the impact gun is still in transit, we’re good to go with the Xterra. Now I just need to get the front end aligned. $150 for that.

I cleaned up the garage this afternoon and it looks good if I do say so myself. I’m all out of car work to do for the time so now I don’t have any excuse not to finish the back room.
