While I was putting in new front brake shoes, I notice a tear in the rubber seal of the upper ball joint. Not that big a tear. I filled the joint with grease. What I am wondering is can I drive the car with the tear a little bit before replacing? This is a new joint I put in about 3yrs ago. Can't think of wh...

This is kind of annoying. Can it be changed. I know how to change the size of the fonts and the zoom level of the page. But to get it at a readable font size and zoom level, the page that loads is twice the width of my screen I have to always drag across the bottom of the screen to read. Disregard, I guess th...
