How did the slave bleeding go? What was the final fix?
@DrLeadFoot

Tried the reverse bleed - but combination if not enough room under car and the emerging size fittings/hose is not working.
Tried the suction bleeder, works well and have pedal feel now... But still think there's too much air in the system.
Ha, you think that is bad?!
Try doing it with a trans that is not meant for the car! I had a bear of a time doing the reverse fill on my ZF.
She's looking minty!

You spelled "crap-filled" wrong

Because it is hard to find motivation then. I get what you're saying.

Motivation is non existent.
I'm currently contemplating how naps are more important than my car while laying on my couch.

I've decided I'm pushing my luck running 16"x9" ET5 wheels on wheel bearings of unknown age/wear, so decided I need to do them ASAP.
Anything I'm missing for rebuilding the rear wheel ends?:
-Wheel Bearings/Races for rear.
-E-brake shoes, hardware, e-brake cables.
-Rear rotors/pads.
I'm assuming the front bearings are pressed into the hub, any local shop should be able to press out/press in?
Going to Harbor Freight to get the bearing puller everyone says works well for the rears.

I just went through this same ordeal. Check you bushings, brake lines, and sway bar links too while you are down there. I swapped my diff, but once I started pulling things apart I noticed that I just needed to buy new everything

I already did all the bushings and brake lines - forgot about sway bar end links tho!

Anyone have a good source for a 16" electric fan? CATuned has 16" straight blade SPAL fans for $100, but I thought the straight blade fans were "louder" then the tornado fans.
Also - while driving this past weekend occasionally if I hit a large bump the car would "die" for a 1/2 second (engine and all electronics off momentarily). I'm thinking its a loose ground or power wire. Other then the battery and grounds in the trunk and behind the PS strut tower, any other grounds I should know about?
