Problems, problems and more problems

Tires are not a problem

Well, I'm about ready to give up on this beast.

1. Besides the intake manifold gasket leaking, now I have a front main seal leak.

2. Sometimes when driving the car over 60 miles an hour, it shakes violently. Had the tires balanced and an alignment done. Still happens.Technician at the tire store said that one of the tires is "out of round", meaning it's screwed up.
All 4 tires have about had it.

3. They had trouble doing the alignment because of the slack in the steering. They say that I will probably need a new steering rack in the near future. Plus the steering column still has play in it after doing the suggested fix (tightening the torx head bolts). Probably something cracked in the lower steering column assembly?

Several less expensive things wrong. I curse the previous 2 owners for not taking proper care of this car, and I curse myself for not properly checking things over beforre buying it.

Anyone want to buy a 93 Ruby with just over 50,000 miles on it?

Wetwolf is the name & Corvette is my game
I buy tires from a wholesaler and he specializes in blemishe tires & the price is
about 1/4 of retial, this tires era new the only problem is that the name or a number did't print right.
The way I found this was by calling every tire store on the phone book and asking them if they sold blemished tires gave them the tire size w/out telling them that they were going on a CORVETTE, If you pay in cash don't have to pay tax. Mounting & balanse is done by other, I take my rims to Tire Kindom & it cost me $5.00 per tires.
The place I shop not allways have the size I need, but for the saving I think the inconvenient of having to call back is not bad.
WETWOLF HAS SPOKEN.
