Repairs and APK for Che
Posted on September 13, 2008 in Maintenance
Drove my 69 Ford Ranchero to Jaarsma this week for the APK inspection. The car failed the inspection on worn upper ball joints and front spring bushings. So I left it there for repair and also left the new front springs there that I already bought but hadn't installed yet. Picked Che up today, they did nice work (doesn't come cheap..) including aligning, which makes Che drive even better. And without the terrible squeeking of the worn spring bushings. But I did notice something strange while driving back home, a shaking of the car while braking.... something wrongly installed in the front brakes? I took the drums off tonight but cannot really see any problem... to be continued.
Installed my new alu steering wheel which I bought on Ebay - nice
