Does the EG run?
Can you drive it to York, Pa (I-83)?
My buddy has swapped his H22 into two different EGs.
We just did the 2nd one last week.
If it doesn't run do you have AAA?
I have a rollback at work.
Have shop with lift, air and tools.
Do you have EVERYTHING needed for the swap?

turbogixxer, I'd love to drive it to FL. I definately know you'd do it right

I'd rather not have a shop do it,.. I found someone locally that'll help me with it.

I just need to get the last parts in and I'll start it.

Damn, strict inspections!

Turbogixxer can do the wiring harness for you and send it back.

#4. You need to take the spindle out and take it to a machine shop (or a friend that can do it) to have the old and new ball joint pressed in and out.
