Re: My MK2 Jetta daily driver project.
Getting closer to having the underside cleaned up, i seem to only be able to lay under the car for 45-60min than i'm over it. Almost have the shifter rebuilt, need a couple more parts. I managed to get all the suspension bushings out on my own, now i have to see if I can get them back in.

Re: My MK2 Jetta daily driver project.
Have the front end almost done, still needs wheel bearings and steering rack bushings. It took me 2 hours to figure out that i need to buy a bench vice to get the bushings in. All other attempts failed.

Re: My MK2 Jetta daily driver project.
I went out and got one and the bushings are in. Have you done wheel bearings and hubs?
