Try driving on roads where you're overtaxed and underserved. This state has the highest gas taxes and some of the worst road conditions, especially for not having snow to deal with.

Try I-5 through Seattle sometime, talk about shitty. I'm down in Santa Anna and the freeways are like glass compared to Seattle and surrounding areas around it

Engine, Transmission, Rearend, & Exhaust / Re: Changing pinion seal 8 3/4

Last post by W4ATL - Today at 04:09:02 PM

The instructions above were very helpful. My biggest issue was getting the pinion nut off. I spent two 2 days trying to get that sucker loose. I soaked it in WD-40, tried an impact wrench and a jack on the wrench and it just wouldn't budge.  Finally applied some heat, then used a jack with my wrench to finally get it to "crack". Still couldn't budge it by hand and I thought I broke something internal. I was about ready to put the driveshaft back on and take it somewhere that could lift it in the air and diagnose it when I thought to try the impact wrench one more time. Imaging my surprise when it started to come off! The rest of the job to remove the seal and install the new one only took 30 minutes. Drives like a champ and no leaks.

I have driven and enjoyed my Charger MORE since I converted it from a 727 to the Tremec 5 speed manual.
It isn't because the car is faster. I'm not Ronnie Sox...I can't shift fast like the heroes could. I'm decent but not expertly skilled with a manual transmission.
It is because the car is more fun now. The freeway cruising at lower rpms really do "civilize" a car. I like shifting the gears. Some like to say that they feel more connected to their car...may that is part of it.
