inspection mechanic needs to be shot. and I need to check things out for my self more often.

after over a month owning the car I had it up on a lift for the first time... there's a nice shiny new looking reman steering rack in the car with nice clean boots and rods. yes there is some play, but not much.

Needs ball joints for sure though, boots are all cracked to hell. but I have those ready to go already.

also found I need a shift linkage seal, she's leakin' a little trans oil. (cleanest trans oil I've ever seen though)
