Rockauto has all of that..
The exchange took me about 7-8 hours doing it by myself.
What about the proportioning valve?

Picked up a rear sway bar today. Dude was really cool and helped me install it.

Can't say I noticed much improvement though.

On the plus side, at least I get a nice flat smooth surface to mount another LED strip to 😏

Drove my Charger past the shop that has had my HHR since Tuesday. They're replacing two front hubs, and it's taking longer than I thought it would. I know they're pretty busy. Hopefully it's that, and not that they ran into problems. Should be finished this week.

Woke up this morning to 13” of snow , some drifted in front of the garage, so much for the snowblower scaring the snow away!
I won’t be doing another to the HHR but sweep off the snow!

A view out our front window. Note the level of the snow along the HHR parked in front:

I just finished digging to the back shed to get the snowblower and gas can. Took me 45 minutes to clear our driveway, futile exercise as there’s 20”s of snow on the road!

Just talked with the mechanic that's replacing the hubs. Turns out one of the axles was stuck to the hub (I think), and nothing would break it loose. Heat, hammers, swearing, etc.
He finally cut the axle, and ordered a new one from NAPA. It's going to be a week before it arrives. Sigh.
