      How's your steering rack, tie rods, and alignment? Might be related to the pulling.

        Steering rack feels pretty sluggish , tie rods are only one year old and alignment is okay .

        I'm going to be swapping out my steering rack with an extra one I have to see if that helps.

            I have good news and bad news .

            The bad news is , I will be selling the vert soon.

            The good news is , I purchased an alpine-white late model 325is.
            She will be delivered to my driveway within the next few weeks.

              I have almost everything on and bolted down finnaly . I owe the success of this mission to my mentor ST1G and a lovely playlist composed of Andrea Bocelli and Celine Dion.

                It feels so good to drive a car that doesn't make noise when turning .
                I've ordered new coolant , oil sensors for the car that I will be replacing.

                I posted the car on Craigslist and got immediate attention, I have a potential buyer that will make me an offer as soon as I take the car in for a quick inspection.

                  Did you buy or make the new lines?

                    I pulled lines from the junkyard , had a few from st1g , and my old ones so I chose the ones that looked the best and let them sit in a soapy bath and then I sprayed the metal fittings with brake cleaner.

                    They haven't leaked yet. I wanted new lines but didn't feel like spending 70$ per line.

                        I decided not to weld diff , I bought a car with an LSD so I'll be able to slide around with that car instead.
