Anybody else been experiencing setbacks this month?

I've had my Tein s-techs for 2 months sitting in my room. Was going to install them long ago but the garage i use was occupied. It became available about 3 weeks ago, but i can only do it on a sunday. We planned to lower it the second sunday in may.... raining, couldn't move car out to get mine in, whatever, we'll do it next weekend i thought. Next weekend, brakes go. Brake lines had rusted through, so the sunday after that i ran new brake lines for 10 hours (first time doing that). Now we get to today, finally get to install them. NOPE! turns out my struts are shot and leaking oil, and im not pulling them out once for springs then again for struts. So I ordered new struts today (kyb gr-2's) and have to wait yet again to get these bloody springs in...
anyways, thats my rant. I'm gonna go shower.

Racing at an AUTOX event this fathers day.. Checked the "loose" bearings I was suppose to have in the rear.. (failed TECH because of it...) Now to find out that my bearings are fine.. yet my strut assembly is making the loose noises...

And my brake pads are having an uneven wear. badly in the front..
