Expletive Honda's shitty suspension peices. I am in the process of replacing the axles on my car and I have to replace a few nuts that are rusted to hell. Even worse is mac's doesnt have the right size castle nuts I needed. Now I am waiting for Corwin to order the damn nuts as I sit here car-less and pissed off.

As of 2 minutes ago make that 2 bolts I have to replace. Never realized how hard it is to work on older cars. My toyota wasn't even this bad!!

all cars that old are that hard to work on. as cars get newer, they get easier to remove parts, but harder to work on/diagnose. but the one thing that hasn't changed much is fasteners on every vehicle driven in this area. salt + cold/heat + water + oxygen + age + our bad roads = easily damaged bolts that are external/exposed to the outside easily. this includes brakes, suspension, exhaust, engine areas and more.
