            Installing solid works again. I keep forgetting to turnoff the automatic updates.

                Buttchug is the man, I cannot thank him enough for helping me out today. Dealt with my bucket and didn't give up til it was fixed.

                Spent the better part of our day diagnosing the suspension clunk. It ended up being something super simple. The gland nut needed to be tightened.

                Ran into a few scary things while in there though. First, my passenger side engine mount nut was about loose and just about off, and second I was missing TWO subframe bolts. :ohsnap:

                Got an oil change, car runs quiet, and handles great.

                      That'd only happen if you were over. :p

                        Thought that was implied. "Scary things while in there"

                            No I was not talking about that chain....
