Default Just a huge pain in my ass

You know i like saturns i really do but is it me or is it every time you turn around there is just another huge pain in the ass with them.

I mean im swaping out the hub/spindle/bearring assembly from my 95 to my 99 and the damn hub nit that hold it all to the drive axle is a 1 3/16's size nut...... only one place you can buy that size around here that i have found. Harbor freight and tools but you have to buy a whole set of wrenches that look like they should be used on tanks... and i dont want the whole set just one and i cant justifie buying the whole damned set for one friggen wrench. i mean 40 bucks for one wrenc thats retarted.

Its like they perpousely made our cars a pain in the ass for the "do it your selfer" So you'll be forecd to bring your saturn to them and pay there ridiculouse service prices..... Note to self burn car collect insuance.
