thanks for the tips. as for removing the splines from the Ip i think i will wait until I find specific details on my model. I have a torque wrench, but I have no specs. Hopefully I'll get lucky with budgeing it a little back. I'll let you know how it works . I dont know when I am going to get to it. I have spent a lot of time on this car lately. Maby this weekend I'll dive into it. I really want this car to run well. I'm sure it will happen. Its a patience thing i guess.
