um.... i was going to type something, then realized this is about your wife.

your son watching CMT on mute is hilarious.

car problems: my lower A-arm ball-joints are bad. both sides. i simply don't have the time to do it myself. it gets worse: new ones are $530/each. there are rebuild kits, but again, i really don't have the time, as i've been at work 5 and 6 days a week and when i am home i have toddler duty.

so, i bought rebuilt ones from vertex auto. $185/each (and a $150 core charge). they won't be here until about friday. this presents even more bad news: the last autocross of the season is on sunday.

anyone have experience with rebuilt A-arms? from vertex?

Sure do, they are $185 each with a $150 core charge and overnight shipping is extra. Hope this helps

If you get the right parts D, swapping the A Arms isn't too terrible of a job. Guess you are planning to race on a garage alignment?
