Tom, glad to hear surgery went decent, will continue the prayers.
Went and looked at a place today with the wife. We have to talk to some banks yet to see what we can do, but we really liked the place. Best part for me was the shop. 60' x 76', 15 or 16 foot sidewalls, in floor heat, about 20' x 48' of it is in mid conversion to living space, so it cuts down on the room a bit, but there's still plenty of shop left. If we ever do get the place I may have to throw a shop party....

Yeah, there's a price to pay to have all those heim joints and adjustability.. Thanks for the kudos on the site.
Tom - We're still praying that Hannah is out of the woods soon.. She has such a strong spirit...
I never made it out to the shop today. I spent most of the day moving my Mom back to her assisted living apartment from the nursing home.

Good morning guys! Gonna be a warm one today...
There will be some additional vibration and noise due to the nature of the joints not being compliant, but it's just the way it is.. It would be tough to try and convert to more compliant joints but that effort may be worth it in the long run when you consider the frequency of msintenance of the heims..
I will probably only take it to the track a couple of times, just to wring its neck for a few miles...
