Those bolts are actually a splined stud with a hex head. The nut is the only thing that will turn. You will need to drive the broken ones out, and replace it with the correct stud, or a bolt. but then the bolt will need to be held with a wrench to tighten/loosen in the future. Sounds like a job for...

Trappy, depending on when you're leaving to go up, we can convoy. Dunno if you're up to taking a 4 hour trip east to go 5 more north, let me know though, we'll work something out. Well, let's talk about it, man. We could maybe meet 2 hrs. east of me and 2 hrs. west of you, then go north. Just PM me...

I get back to the shop a few hours later, and the sound is FAR worse, he snapped two of the bolts that connect flange to pipe (4 Bolt pattern), How screwed am i when l...

Without looking at mine I don't know. Seems your left control arm looks odd though? They're both wrong. The Left is bent INWARDS, so if i lowered the car, it would rub/grind on the metal in between the two, and on the right side, the arm is flipped (actually i don't think its the right one, but all...

So any good clear sealant will do the trick then? I don't have to worry about them separating while I'm driving down the road? Lol. I pulled the halo's out the back of the housing, but they were a serious pain in the ass to get back together, so I'll be taking the caps off when I get to the modding :)

I would be PISSED in your position man. I don't get a week go by without overtime.

If it were any other week I'd worry more about it. When they schedule me 44 hours, but tell me i cant have overtime, i guess it's up to me to decide where i can cut them. I had someone else with me today as well. Have yet to be "talked to" about my tardiness.
