its life.

I can't take full credit for it, I'd read about using weld as a way to get
pistons out of stuck tractor engines. In fact at some point I'm probably going
to need to do it on my 1928 Farmall.

I'd kind of discounted that because it passed inspection and they usually catch

Easy way to get pressed in sleeves out, too, although you must be
VERY careful to avoid significant penetration of the weld to avoid
welding the sleeve to the block rather than shrinking it.
MB wheel bearings will always drive out. The factory tool helps
quite a bit on tight ones, but a
If the car follows cracks in the road, something is loose in the

Check the ball joint by jacking the front end up and supporting the

Y'all must either be busy eating turkey or resting up for Black Friday
bargain hunting as the list has gone quiet. I thought it might be busy

Well, Mr Q, My definition of running well is
scheduled/planned maintenance, or at least limp

This is a bit unusual. It is a make an offer sale of unsold school
equipment from mostly the east coast and west coast. There is an
R-12 A/C machine and a E-350 ford Diesel bus among the stuff that may

Hello from InterSchola! Make us an offer!
I have noticed on my 87 300D when going down the highway about
about 60 or so, if you floor it the torque seems to push the rear
end to the right a little bit. What would cause that? Something
worn out in the back would be my guess.

I have seen worse thats for sure. I had planned on replacing them
anyway but the torque deal was something I had never seen, or
noticed, before.

Bright sunny here, 32 deg.F. high after a 20 deg.F low. It's supposed to

I, for two, post from home. The traditional roasted turkey and all the
fix'ins were wonderful, as usual. Guests just left -- a succesful feast of
thanks.
The wind has died down, the temp is dropping to 20+ tonight - then off to
Grandpa's tomorrow to start over again.

I'd guess subframe mounts, but a bad link could do that too.

Don't worry Rusty, I'll be getting more parts soon, at least front and rear
main seals. Holding off till I know what all else I might need for this
unholy joining of Mercedes and Mitsubishi.
Turkey day was awesome, I'll be eating sandwiches all next week! :D

Rained cats and dogs here all day, good thing since we are something
like 12 inches short of rain this year. First decent rainfall since
June, I think.
Gonna be cold and clear tomorrow, that's even better since I have a
300 mile drive!

Rear links are bad, just replaced mine. Not a bad job, really, just
a pain to get a wrench on the bolts. Makes it ride MUCH better, even
with only one side done!
