hey nick nickerson, is that the corckscrew in your avatar? if i flipped my car in that i would just tell them to leave it there so i could relish teh moment and bask in my un-glory.

 

Can someone tell me why one side of my hood doesnt sit level with the fender? I tried adjusting the rubber bump stop thing.

 

haha hood is twisted from years of hood prop use man. grab that thing with both arms and twist it back gently. these things are old and dont run or look right til you bleed on em.

Yes it is...and it's crazy as hell. Laguna is fun, mainly because of that section, but I'd rather go ***** out at Buttonwillow or Infineon without stupid sound restrictions.

I'm familiar with tramlining and steering pull, and it's not that.

EDIT: I am getting an alignment on Monday (working all weekend/today).

****! yea thats it. I had the same problem before, right after changing axles and it freaked me the expletive out. I jacked it up only to remember that I forgot to tighten one of the castle nuts. The lower ball joint nut to be exact. Great diagnosis Kyle. I couldnt remember what it was that made my car do that.

 

could be an inner tie rod?

 

i need some proffessional shots of my car

 

i will be checking out the corolla tomorrow.

thanks for the info on the final drive. I hear bit of misinformation w/out facts which may have caused that comment.
I'll be getting a A1 5th gear then.

or do the 92-93 ys1 5th gear fit too

I remember someone telling me about the forks and how the ys1 have a different one.
It might have been the fork or the teeth.

 

ys1 absolutely will not fit your early trans james.

the only 5th gears that are swappable for your y1 are a1, j1, s1, and obviously y1. a usdm has no swappable components except 5th gear set and synchro. all of the other stuff is different diameter and size fork. so you can put an ls 5th gear set in a jadm b16 tranny but that is where it ends. there are no serviceable components that are swappable between the 2. you also have to be careful since all of it is discontinued/obsolete for the 90/91 trannys now...so what is on the shelf is all that is left. when it is gone there will be no more.

I never touched the castle nut on the tie rod end OR on the lower ball joint...So...I'll borrow a jack tomorrow (my buddy is coming up and I'll tell him to bring one). I REALLY hope that it's something stupid-*******-simple like that. Regardless, Monday I'll still be getting an alignment.
