Driveshafts are easy. Just need the right tools.

That looks a lot more like Prince Albert!
Yeah, in comparison to the TL, this axle was a breeze...hardest part was lining up on the inner holes and getting the first bolt threaded in...I realized I needed to use a jack under the rotor to get the axle lined up and straight.

Thanks for the tip.
Took me today to find the price listed but as of a year and a half ago it was $245 to send the TB to him to have it ported. I paid $445 shipped for a brand new already done one so you would be saving a little more than $80.

My damn FOB stopped locking/unlocking altogether.

so instead of 2 doors remaining unlocked...all of them do!

Gotta figure that out eventually...I know someone will steal my mentos in the center console otherwise.

Well if Jalopnik has proved to me anything it is that your car won't get stolen at least cause thieves can't drive manuals.

Starting to look really good. When do the headlights get done?

Also I don't think the wheels look bad. Maybe just some springs and spacers and call it a day.

That looks way easier than the gongshow that was replacing the BMW front CV's.
