Cold Day to Work on the Camaro
Working on the Camaro this afternoon. Had to remove a bent rear control arm on the front passenger side. Unfortunately we got 4-inches of snow yesterday and I didn't have any room left in the garage so I moved the Suburban so that I would have place to work without snow on it, but it was still pretty chilly. I got it removed and ready to slap in the replacement that is on the way from Rock Auto.

That looks brutal. Reminds me of when I had to replace a timing belt in an old Ford Ranger, parked on the side of the street in a freezing rain storm.

I think that every car guy has gone through something similar. It's a right of passage.

Been there done that many times, one thing I wish I looked for in buying a house was
a garage for the gearhead. Builds character though.

I guess that, I will not bitch about changing my oil under a carport and in the mid to upper 50's. Good luck OP!

dude that looks a little chilly there! Lol hope it went smoothly and everything came apart easily. I know working in the cold seems to make everything a little more difficult than need be
