Just curious I may need to have some work done on a couple of my rides, but not sure if I feel like doing the towing thing. Feel free to PM me.
Just to give you and idea. Need some suspension work done on a 72 monte and a 67 New Yorker (control arm bushings). [ July 19, 2010, 06:34 PM: Message edited by: N8 ]

There's nothing "mobile" about either of those jobs, unless someone wants to monkey-fukk those bushings with a install tool or they roll with a 12 ton press in their vehicle. ![[Wink]](wink.gif)

LMAO... I was going to post the same exact thing, but thought it'd be too messed up.

You can usually get those bushings out and installed with a vise and an air hammer.. Or in the car with a porta press.

Didn't mean to scare ya N8, but with the sheer number of hack jobs going on...anyone "mobile" who comes to do this without the right tools is gonna fukk it up. The Monte ones are straight forward, but I guarantee very few people know how to set the New Yorker up correctly after all is apart. I personally only know of 1 person on this board who I could ask and they would know...we both messed with Mopars many moons ago.
Good luck to ya.

Don't waste your time with his hack job shit work! Pay for it to get fixed correctly the FIRST time, or you will have to pay to get it fixed right after the first idiot screws it up! [ July 22, 2010, 12:08 AM: Message edited by: 06Xrunner ]
