Offset from Hell saved the VX ...

Just a little update.

The garage said that Isuzu claims it'll take 6-8 weeks to get the steering box. RamAirZ is kindly sending me his spare. I'll start looking tomorrow for a new set of seals for it. They really only need the sector shaft from the donor box.

Yah, I had comp but being the miser that I am, I have a $1K deductable so I'll be out a little ching.

WooHoo!!! The VX should be outa the shop by the end of the week. It was just the steering box & a steering knuckle. There was a 'tweek' to the end of the frame on that side but they indicated that it was easily straightened.

They ended up replacing the front cladding & fender cladding as well. I had them save the old ones (prolly not useful to anyone since they were cut to clear the tires but lemme know if anyone needs them for a project or sumpn).

All that's left to do is an alignment & cleaning.

I saw some of the work they've done on other cars (including the Ford that I hit). This place does some awsome work (although somewhat expensive). I may end up taking the Eclipse there for a paint job.
