my car repair
Friday evening when I made the turn onto our 1/4 mile driveway I heard a loud clunk from the right rear of the car. By the time I got in the house I'd forgotten about it. Saturday morning he and I left for Lowe's about 25 miles away. I told him about the noise. After about 10 miles he heard it. We pulled into a parking lot and he looked under the car. A stabilizer had broken. It was swinging loose and banging around. We were able to go on to Lowe's and back home again. He bought shower supplies for the new shower he is installing in the bathroom. I drove the station wagon the next day for church. Monday he called an auto salvage yard and sent me to get the part. Later that day he sent me to AutoZone for new bushings. They didn't sell the bushings separately. I called him on the cell phone and he said buy the whole thing. We didn't have much choice. That evening I helped him install the new stabilizer. He never complained. Today I can drive my own car again.
