short story.. Jared had a Blue ED
Jared Broke his ED
Jared purchased this ED to replace it
AJR's that Zervos has on his ED Ghia were Max's wheels.
these AJR's were Dan's old AJR's (I Think)
This is an ED Fairmont, Zervos' was a Ghia

This guy knows too much about cobalt blue ED's. and yes they are Dans old AJR's

wayne, if i were driving it i would put the 3.9's in it because i know they have had hardly any use. but no, I dont need your diff :| just change the pinion bearing and use it...
