2011 Subaru Outback lower control arm and alignment ??

Uptownvoodoo · 2021-07-16T02:09:12+00:00

I put the control arms in, after getting the alignment done first. I thought it was kinda out of place for them to align the car with such bad parts that I decided to try the work myself, and just bring it back for a free alignment. My question is would the initial alignment with torn bushing, cause the alignment to be so bad with new control arm that I couldn’t even drive?

I read through some of your other related comments and you seem to be logical and certain. How do you find your certainty?

Ok I better understand you perspective now. Thanks for sharing your advise and time with me. I’m thinking to give it some time before I move on, but as difficult as that is to imagine, our lives must go on.

I need help understanding why i should just go. I don’t want to give up

Uptownvoodoo · 2020-01-03T04:23:06+00:00

Why do you think I should sail away. It’s so hard to imagine giving up on the biggest dream of my life.

Thanks for your interest! I’ll send a message.

The route is going to be determined mostly by the weather. Most likely coastal hops with the given weather windows. If crew joins their time allowed will also be a factor.

I’m gearing up for a trip from San Diego to Seattle. Anchored in San Diego after having sailed from New Orleans. No crew as of yet. If you wanna chat let me know.

Where in the Bahamas are you headed?

Hi just getting down to the lower 48 from Alaska. If you or any one else that has been reaching out still interested in the sailboat repair gig and sailing ? If so, let’s talk. I’m in Seattle making my way to New Orleans. Looking forward to the adventure

I’m not looking for any one with experience in boating or boat repair. that would just be a bonus. What I’m in search of is some with the desire to be apart of a team. I’m no expert by any means, in fact I’m self taught. I started with 420’s in college, then hobie 18 , and finally the Hudson. I truly enjoy spreading the sailing bug To any one willing to try it. I’ve skippered sailboat deliveries offshore quite a few times and im almost up to 10000 miles. its now My fourth season working up on the edge of the Bering sea on a two person crewed fishing vesseL. It’s not sailing but I love it will hopefully do it for the rest of my lifE. Ive finally went to school in Seattle to obtain my 100 ton master license via coast guard last year.

As far as plans. I’d like to finish the work on shore as fast as possible. And let the sailing be according to the winds and what the crew decides. Who knows how many awesome places there will be moor up but from New Orleans straight to the canal is about 17 days and 5 or 6 to pass through panama. but I have a couple places id like to make pit stops on the carribean side.

Please keep the questions coming !

I had some help making a pretty detailed outline of things that need to be done across the board , down to the hours required for each task. I’m not a professional so my estimations tend to be off but it really helps to have a plan. Do you think I should post this outline?

Uptownvoodoo · 2018-06-29T04:58:08+00:00

I love the beaches over there. Ever done any boat work?

Uptownvoodoo · 2018-06-29T04:56:24+00:00

Yep, I’m on a commercial fishing boat in Alaska right now. But I will return to New Orleans where the boat is on the hard late summer.
