i finally had the chance to fix my old-raggedy minivan. so, what was worng with it? actually the i first noticed the problem some few months back when every time i started to drive slow I can hear a sound metal clinking from the back of van. I thought it was just some metal that got dragged under the it. but i couldn't seem to find any metal or loose parts that could possibly make that noise.

until just a week ago i heard to noise getting louder. and finally i decided to take the hubcaps out and voila i found out my source of annoying sound. 3 broken screws/studs inside the hubcaps hence clanking noise against metal rim.


so all this time i was just driving with only 2 screws attached to the studs. i reckon that God must have heard all my prayers all along. i cant imagine if this puppy stray away while i was driving.


well, its alright now. see the 3 clean studs?

but, i wont take all the credit. i got a lot of help from my old mexican friend daniel. the hardest part was to take the drum out of the whole brake structure. well, its easy actually if you know that there is a little poking hole behind the it that you can poke around with a screw driver to release the hand brake handle.

anyways, george lopez is right. these people do everything better, faster, and cheaper.
