2013/05/10 Murphy and the 24 bolts.

It sounds like a fairy tale but these are the facts:

After parking the car in the middle of the garage the right window refuses to go down. At a test drive last night it was working now it’s just the start to what would be a difficult day. As soon as my first wave of anger cools down I’m dealing with a Jack that just doesn’t reach.Raising the car on it’s concrete supports takes about 3 hours and a lot of hassle and a head bump. WTF!

Reaching all 24 bolts of the drive shafts is the next hassle. A trip to the DIY shop secures some wrench extensions and finally I can reach all 24 bolts. As soon as they are out they take a bath in degreaser. At the end of a difficult day it feels good to raise the finger at Mr.Murphy.
