finally changed my rear driveshaft u-joint, the 2 caps that were in the ds holes had no bearings what so ever. it was a pain, but got it out and new one in. the straps i had on there were only 2 months old,but i bought new ones anyways,but they were brass and didnt fit and broke a bolt while putting it in and got lucky,it screwed out by hand. so i just used the 2 month old straps with 3 new bolts and 1 from before.

I was looking Into the VHt when i painted my front end, but went rust oleum instead. IMHO rust oleum is good but I don't like it to much for automotive, doesn't blend right

Oh and my valve cover was loose. I tightend it down and my high idling problem went away.
I know how this makes sense. : )
