Question.... when it gets REALLY cold out (like below 20 degrees) the back end of my car acts like my shocks are frozen or something.... is that the case, or is there something I can do (short of replacing the shocks) to keep it from doing this? It really sucks because it makes me bounce around and feel EVERY bump in the road.

dru best be careful when he's riding that bike down the thoroughfare, or sheriff bullock's boy might be liable to git himself run over by that damn horse the n-word general brought in to the livery to get nutted, and then how would he feel, huh?
I need to replace both front half-shafts on my car. Anyone have any idea how hard that would be to do myself?
I don't think it's that hard, may take some time though. I know my friend did it to his talon himself and he's no car expert.
I've fixed a transmission before just by following instructions in the maintenance book for the car, I have the tools to do it, and the part looks like something that just connects one end at the wheel and one end at the main driveshaft but I imagine it probably has to have an alignment as part of the installation.
I dunno about the alignment stuff. Might have to check the book I guess. I was there to help my friend put it back together and we sorta just stuck them back in. If I remember right he had to replace the rubber boots that were on the ends.
Man, you don't even know. Except for the fact that I can't find a boyfriend (which would change if I lived in Anchorage, I think), this state is frickin awesome. You don't even know, man.

so like last week, I got to drive a brand new pickup that still had the sticker on the window, and it said that the msrp was $56,999.
And I was all
SHHHYYYEEAAAHHHH RIIIIIIIGHHHHHHT!
but it was cool, when you put it in reverse there was this little LCD screen in the rear view mirror that showed you what was behind you with these little landing strip lines and shit.

Ppppprrreeeeeeetty sure that wouldn't get me a boyfriend.
A Class B misdemeanor, perhaps. But not a boyfriend.

So my wife's car was dead this morning because apparently the baby had gotten ahold of her car keys sometime over the weekend and hit the button that pops the trunk
causing the little trunk light to come which drained the batteries

Actually now that I think of it most shocks are sealed. You probably need new ones.

find forums about the specific car model and they will have everything
also i think that can be a decent way to get a used car
pick a model, find forums for it, see if any users are selling on there
might be cheaper, or at least you might be able to check the guys post history and see everything theyve done to the car and such

no not really
check your muffler bearings while you're in there, too
The problem could be that they are leaking.
but what a shame about the christmas tree lights on the front
gotta keep them 16 month olds in line somehow!!!!
I'm not that retarded, you guys. I'm not one of those inept gays. I do most of my own mechanical work.
I've never, however, worked on suspension.... but I'm pretty sure there's no fucking hydrolic fluid that's changeable in the shocks.

but will it make my car sound like a horde of angry bees like in Fast And Furious?
check the blinker fluid
man I totally think they ruin a beautiful looking car.
it looks so taaaacky
so wrong
go in the corner
sweet!!
now i can be like Vin Diesel
call me Bob Kerosene
Yeah generally not in cars. Friends of mine have racing and off-road shocks for all kinds of vehicles but generally shocks on cars are sealed.
This actually worked on a girl I went to highschool with. She went looking for it for a good 20 min.
