In like Flynn

Learned a new trick: freeze the ball joint that won't go in, it gets smaller and presses right in.

Who would've thunk!

It made me jump!

Ball joint kicking my butt

The ball joint is stuck in the lower arm.

Looking at the new ball joint, its on a taper, so I gotta find a way to bust it loose.

Spent this evening posting entries and photos basically since spring. I had a smattering of posts, but some of the entries were on the wrong day, so now they are all straightened out.

Enjoy!
