Night broke rib, I'm interested to see what you added to get that stance, ol blue has a weak front one, I think....

More Spg errands tomorrow, so another day of NO Ford truck work. I got another shot in the spine today and feel great.

No issue Alan, I would rather have the new stuff now, than have issues with it later. I will get the ball joints when I get off of work in the morning. Is there any special length shocks I need to get? I dont think it is high enough for longer shocks, but you would know!

Looking forward to seeing the truck with the new spring packs.

Whaddupp fellers!
Nothing going on here, go figure. Need to take Rocky on our morning walk soon, well after the coffee is finished.
May get a wild hair and mow the lawn before the storms show up this afternoon.
I'm still looking for .22's. Found an ad on "The List" but the rapist wants almost twice for what I could normally get them for. So that isn't happening. I've snagged a few more box's of ammo for my new 9mm that I still haven't fired. Most of the shooting ranges that I've found, you have to be a member, and still pay a fee to use the lane, and have to buy their marked up targets. And I'm way too tight for that.
Here's my Rocky!

Hope y'all are doing ok.

Unk Bob

Good Morning Everybody!

Hopefully the Mazda gets sprayed today. The weather looks a lot better today. I still hurt, but I feel a little better. I hope to get the other spring in Bandit tonight. This week was supposed to go much better for me. I guess I'm back to fighting for every inch of progress.

Bob. Rocky is cool. I think he's telling you to hurry up and finish your coffee so he can go for his walk.

Long day here too.
Tim was helping a friend of his, who's wife was in a car accident yesterday,
He was taking his friend to get some stuff out of the car she was driving, and they were in an accident themselves.
All that matters is that nobody was hurt. The Escort however, is a total loss.
And we had just liability insurance...
