After sitting for 9 months. It takes me forever to do the smallest amount of work in my condition. I had to change the rear axle, when the hub bearings went bad they took the stub axle out with it, the stub axle is welded to the beam axle so the whole assembly had to go.
Since I have a hard time lifting anything and don't have than much upper body strength anymore it took all week to change the rear axle and hubs but now the car is on its wheels and doesnt look like a wreck on blocks in my driveway anymore. What used to be a sorse of fustration and depression is now more insperational.
Everything is covered by a thick layer of dust and the inside is full of dust and cobwebs so today is cleanout day, then on to check to see if sitting without prepping the car for storage ruined anything.
It started right up.

I'm sorry I didn't copy everyone else's setup. If you need a preacher to tell you what mods to put on your car, the Reverend Veilside180sx might have a suggestion.
I really need to figure out how to strengthen my upper body besides just the stuff I do for PT. I am amazed how much strength I have lost. I can bairly bust bolts loose. Thank god for air tools. I had to get my wife to help me.

I work imagine any basic, compound movements should help. If you lift less weight, more reps, and lift until you are unable to do so anymore, that should help increase the strength in the muscle. If you lift more weight, less reps you will have bigger muscles but less strength in them. Make sense?

I am not supposed to lift weights just yet. Maybe start with pushup or something that doesnt put weight on my back?
to prevent something abd from happeneing that may prevent you from future track enjoyment, listen to physical/personal trainer, they know whats best to keep you safe and happy.
dont ruin all that hard work you have gone through already.
good work gettin the car back on its "feet", good luck with the PT i know its a bi*ch, but its gatta get done.
The only thing I can think of that won't be likely to reinjure it would be swimming. My friend did this until he could run again when he had foot surgery and he said it helped a lot.

They want me to start riding a staionary bike but I have had a bad cold/flu for the past couple of weeks.
An elliptical machine wouldn't hurt your back much but help with the rest of your body more. (unless the arms moving places too much strain)
I was told to take much longer off of cars than I did too, but don't listen very well. Although I did leave the really hard stuff to someone else, or air tools like you are.
