As reported Here, Brian had a most unfortunate experience with his driver's side inner CV joint exploding on the starting line at the autocross last Sunday. Yeah, looks rather grim. We're kind of curious what happened. Perhaps we'll find out when we get it off this coming weekend. On a related note, I wanted to show a neat little tool that new club member Peter Rose has devised. This tool is used to "pop" the inner CV joint out of the transmission. Sometimes they stick in there pretty good, so I was rather intrigued when Peter showed me this device. First some pictures, and then an explanation from Peter describing what he's made.
Thank you very much Peter for both the info and for the offer! Okay, we hope to get a few pictures of Brian's GT as we wrestle with his inner CV joint/halfshaft. Stay tuned!

Ok, there are times when one gets a great deal...this is one of them. This kit I bought yesterday for $104.00, and at 8pm it all changed... These two items I have, today would be $510.00!!! I am shocked...SCORE |

Tomorrow at 9 am we'll see how good these tools are.
