Default Hello

Hello, my names Sean. I just recently purchased a 1996 Saturn SC2. Currently in the process of replacing the front end cradle and just installed new polk speakers in the front & rear. I'm sure I'll find great resources here and a few suggestions on things to do to get my car up and running better.





Thanks.

Welcome to the forum. What's the reason for the cradle replacement, if you don't mind me asking? And I'm like Mike, I'd love to have a place like that to work in. I'm getting too old and stiff to keep doing my repairs in a gravel driveway.

The driver side was rusting pretty bad when I bought it (didn't see it until after, with my luck). All the rust was on the top and it eventually cut the CV boot surrounding the axle. The other day as I was leaving my drive way it finally completely pulled away and I had to toe it up my drive way to get it into the shop.

I'm pretty fortunate in my work area, that's a very small section of the whole shop. It would of been awesome to have had a lift to help out with this repair though!
