Huzzah!!! It is fixed!

I just took it for a 10+ mile drive and it was awesome!

Thanks everyone all for your help!

It was relatively straightforward getting the AOS out and in. The hardest part was getting the old ones bottom hoes off. Had to use a really long 90 degree needlenose and hook it just right and squeeze so i could pull up on the AOS and wiggle it out. I found it easiest to have the car up because i used bottom and top access. There was a nice spot on the bottom if you moved a wiring harness out of the way.

Celebratory pics of the car (from last week).
