Car parts with Funny names....
|

Just was looking at howstuffworks (reading about steering..and yes I'm still learning things) and was amused by the words:
'Ball nut rack'
as a part of steering box assembly...
so I'm curious as to any other 'funny' car names that will amuse me while at work

I'm sure there should be a:
nipple somewhere too 
Flange is the best yet...
is it a sign of my immature mind that I laughed the whole way through that list so far
