  • yesterday evening I was driving my Festy out on some country roads looking for other Festivas, Aspires, Capris, EGT's etc when I came up on this very large mudhole. No water just mud taking 75%of the road. It had been 75*+ all day so I figured it would be hard enough for my little car to get across. Well my left tire started spinning as soon as the whole left front of the car bottomed out when it sank. Luckily it was downhill so it eventually came out.

    Long story short I got my Festiva stuck.

            • I had to rewire the O2 sensor though since it was in the other side on these headers and the wire wasn't long enough

                      • Patched up the exhaust and put in $20 of gas.

                        Ordered the ebay-special innner/outer tie rods and LCAs because it was on sale earlier this week for $75 shipped. I'll have those installed before Ohiostiva.

                        • Replaced the passenger side steering knuckle after discovering the Aspire one I originally installed had bad bearings and the hole where it mount to the LCA was messed up. Also replaced the pinch bolt.

                          Installed the wheel studs on the front while I was at it.

                          Next on the list... install the Aspire rear axle beam!
