Angry Grrrr!!!

Thanks to the fishing trip I went to on sunday, I now have either a broken ball-bearing or something wrong with the rear left caliper. This car has never been in safe road conditions ever since my older bro crashed the car doing over 100km/h in reverse. Needless to say, the balance of the car and wheels are kaput

this car is draining my wallet!!!

Take it to a mechanic followed by a panel beater and lay some phat plastic on 'em. Only way.

Re: Grrrr!!!

Yea it's going to the mechaninc to see exaclty what's wrong with it along side an estimate on how much ti will cost to have whatever problem it is, repaired. Good thing my dad has soo mnay connections so overall, it wont kill me, but set me back a couple hundred for my trip

Re: Grrrr!!!

Insurance rates here for sport cars are ridiculous, I can get a new car if I wanted to, but insurance is the only thing stopping me

Dude that friggin sucks!
We had a screw removed from the tire of our 4runner, and had it patched... EVER since then the damn thing rattles and vibrates at highway speeds! We've had it balanced the tires rotates, aligned, re-balanced, and REPLACED two of the tires... Still rattles... Freaking makes me mad!

Sorry bout your car!

Last time I went on a fishing trip, we blew the trailer tire, the trailer spare, and couldn't find a place to get a new tire for miles because everything in Canada was closed. Made us lose a whole day of fishing. Anyways, sorry bout you car man, you could always have someone steal it for you and collect insurance towards the new one.

Needless to say, your brother deserves some kind of prize.
I would be concerned more about the 9000 rpm required to do 100 km/h in reverse.

Re: Grrrr!!!

The transmission has been replaced several times. Balance has been so-so, it was driveable until those damn bumps killed my car

So sory raz, where do you live and what kind of fishing do you like? I prefer flipping for small trout in backcountry streems in NH (I live in MA).
