I say "Carbine" but i know people who say "carbine" but i guess it doesnt really matter to much kind of like a "tomato, tomato" thing.

Typical. Been asking him for a favor to hold the ic up while I fit the core support shroud over it, much easier with 2 people. He's always too "busy" to give me a hand so I did it alone. Sucked but it's done.

I ever tell you guys about the time I installed his front sway bar for free while he sat on lounge chairs drinking beers with his fiance? Didn't even hang out in the garage and offer a hand :thumbdown:

For reference I sold Jabers front sway bar to a guy the other week, he pm'ed me this. We also did the tyrolsport collars at the same time.

OK, non-gti question here... The brakes on my wife's 2006 Jetta 2.5 are wearing unevenly. Would I be better off to do that brake job myself, replacing anything that might be causing the uneven wear issue, or having a mechanic do it?

I am not an experienced mechanic, but I'm no noob either.

Slide pins are probably dried out and binding.

I don't think brakes are hard at all - probably the easiest "real" maintenance job you can do on a car outside of oil changes. Does the 06 Jetta require that silly piston retractor tool on the rears?

Speaking of oh wow, they tore up randall by 90 today.

I thought Randall was going to get torn up by Algonquin, to add new side walks and whatnot. Didn't know by 90 it was going to get messed with.

72 has sucked balls recently. I've been cutting through the back roads, taking Power Rd to Big Timber, then back on 72.
