oh well, i got tired of waiting. 
as it turns out, the adjuster fell down. i was going to just respring it all and call it even, but the adjuster got torn up and wouldnt fit back together. so i went to autozone and got a new adjuster and spring kit just to be safe. then i found out why it fell.

the notches are worn to a point on the old one, where as on the new ones they are flat. got it sprung up, and it adjusted with a distinct click each time. i wonder when this is gonna happen on the other side.

actually the trunk was open.
you could only really tell the accident scars because the pinstripes dont quite line up.
i know, im gonna miss it when its gone <for a while anyway>. drove my moms taurus the other day. gave it back because it was boring. car does EXACTLY what you tell it, at whatever speed with no feedback. Each time i drive my car, I go on an adventure. Will I get where I am going? What will come up? How is she feeling today? etc. mom'* car? mash pedal and go, every stinking time.
