[Moderator]

Updated to match the list on page 1, though I know more will be coming. Are you registered yet?

I see that the map won't let you place the dots except in the middle of the state. I wish I did get to start in Nashville.

I feel your pain Carl.

I'll be racing to get my car ready... Put it up on stands yesterday to check things out just as a precaution and found one of my CV boots was split and grease had been slung all over.  Pulling the axle today - hopefully it's just the boot and I'll be able to get a replacement locally.

[MGBV8]

Yeah, I've got a big list to work thru. Some of will just have to wait til later.

All mechanical issues appear okay.  Last week my CD player broke...now the seven speakers with subwolfer and two power amps have to just play the radio!!

Jim - at least you have a radio... I was planning to install my sound system this weekend, but got side tracked when I found the CV boot split.  Got the axles out yesterday.  Lot's of grease still in it so expect the joint will be ok.  New boots should be ready for pick-up at my local parts place by the time I get off work.  Hope to get them put back together tonight.  If so, might still get the stereo installed before I head out.

UPDATE:  Took the CV's apart; didn't put them back together because wanted to check to be sure what I was seeing wasn't abnormal (see pics).  DriveShaft Shop confirmed normal so will be putting them back together tonight or tomorrow.

Note the little dents in each opening... all 6 openings on both axles had these dents so I was pretty sure they weren't wear marks; The DriveShaft Shop confirmed ok...


Note the horizontal "scoring" and shiney wear areas... Again, confirmed as normal wear.  Horizontal lines are from machining the cage & sihiney area is wear from CV going through it's motion...
