Update! Worked on the VX all weekend, til 5 am Sunday in fact. Replaced front wheel bearings and seals plus adjusted steering...I'm going to tighten a little more but the difference is incredible.
Miracle of the week, it passed inspection, no CEL!
Added brake fluid which cleared brake light!
Painted wiper arms and added new sexy blades.

Discovered oil leak from the engine that's dripping after driving and accumulated on front suspension then falls to driveway.
Discovered our front pass axle is prob from an old trooper and has an auto locking hub on the end.

Because of all the mismatched bolts and the growl from the rusty muffler, we are naming him Frankenstein!
