HRD is sooo dreamy!

Ok, so my girl's cousin checked out and said it is the spindle but that something about a bushle or some ish. Either way, how much am I looking at to get it fixed?

hmmmm. I assume he means a bushing. lexus bushings are pretty much dealer parts. i dont think youll find one at autozone or kragens or anything. depending on homedudes mechanic ability, he can prolly replace it for you. i reckon youd have to get the spindle off the car and have the bushing pressed at a shop ( expect at least $40 there). the bushing should be pretty cheap. but its the install thatll cost ya if you cant get homeboy to do it for you.

If you feel up to it. Im curious to know what this "bushing" actually is. If you feel like snapping a few pics and throwen up here, Id like to check it out. Spindles dont TYPICALLY have bushings. But like I was saying before, some european ones do. I guess now japanese ones do

ok so i'm running into a starting issue on my newly restored bronco. :(

basically, the the battery is old and needs replacement, but not thaaaaat bad. it was brand new 5 years ago and never used. i assume all that sitting has killed it, though. that said, when i turn the key on i can hear the puel pumps start up normally. if the battery is low, it will turn over just fine but the fuel pumps shut off and it won't start. once i try turning it over enough that the battery kills and it won't turn anymore, the fuel pumps start working again! is it normal for the battery to have enough juice to turn over the engine, but not run the fuel pumps or vice versa? i'm terrified that it is clogged injectors and the pumps aren't getting enough power to overcome them.

blaaaaargh. i guess i'll just try a new battery and see if that fixes the issue clean.
