I've bled them on 2 seperate occasions and another 2 times with the new calipers. Also replaced the rear wheel cylinders the first time around. Its going in for an alignment today and if that dosnt fix it mabye there is a broken belt in one of the tires? Guys on the mazda forum are saying it may be "bumpsteer" and the steering components are at weird angles or rubbing against eachother. I dissagree as I'm not lowered all that much.

turns out it was a bad alignment. OK tire took care of that. They said they almost couldnt do it because the tie-rods where angling wrong due to being lowered. Drives a little to the right now, but is good on the hwy and dosnt get bumpsteer anymore.

Several days ago, modded an 88 Toyota Cressida into my driveway for $900.

Today, modded an LSD diff from a wrecker Cressy into my garage for tear down and rebuild!

My truck told me it wanted a new headgasket tonite, but this leaves me at what should I do. Spend $30 and slap a gasket onto it, or get the complete head-set, re-surface the head, valve-seals, head-bolts etc Or... 302

Pulled the head off and looks like it needs to be machined/cleaned. I was going to get ok engine rebuilders to do the work.

Pulled the 440, swapped some parts onto the 400 and put the 400 in...having some issues lining things up, it's pissing me off so it's on hold until Sunday before I break something.

is this directed to me? if so, the car is going under heavy 'renovations' this year, new carpet, possibly new front seats, custom fiberglassed sub box for rear seat area and installing my car computer, that's just the upcoming interior mods though.
