Thread: Project $ 3 K Is Underway

Tweet

I guess you could buy those spring perches that can adjust the caster if that was a issue.. Im certain thats not my issue, How ever I do think I found part of my issue with my front end. I can post a pic to show you guys. But I dont wanna hijack your thread. Ill post back on my thread I made a couple of weeks ago.

Hey, hijack away. If it wasn't for other stuff being interjected into this thread, it would have been 2 pages long. This thread is like America.......a big melting pot.

All kidding aside, I really welcome any and all topics being put in here. Breaks up some of the boring stuff I have to post.

Don

That spring is looking good. Don't beat yourself up too much. Considering your original goal of under $3k, that Posies spring would have just added to the cost.

Have you ever tried the plastic(teflon?) spring liners that Speedway sells?

By the way, that barbecue sounds good!

Mike:

I have an order sitting here to call in to Speedway tomorrow, and have some of the teflon spring liner on it, in both sizes, for the front and rear springs. It works well, and they have it in white or black.

Yeah, thanks, the cookout was nice and got to see some old friends of ours.


Don

Glad to hear the liner works. I'm going to use it on the front of my car.

I don't know how the rodders( and bikers) in your part of the country are, but all the ones I hang out with are always looking for an excuse to drive somewhere to eat.

That may explain why my clothes always seem to be shrinking.

Mike

I hope this liner I am getting from Speedway is the one that has the lip on either side to keep it in place, sort of fits over each leaf and snaps into position. I have had that type over the years and I like it better than the one that is simply a flat piece of teflon. I'll let you know when it comes.

I understand about the clothes shrinking. When I belonged to the car club it seemed most of our cruise or meeting spots ended up with food involved. Not sure what excuse I can use now, though.


Don

Thanks

I'd appreciate the info.

Mike

Looks like you and I are the only people awake at 5 AM, huh? Now that I've had my snack it's back to bed.

Don

Yeah

Had to work the night shift for someone.

It's abouit time to go home.

Mike

Don your using to much hot water to wash the clothes, I had the same problem. it had to be the hot water makes them shrink.
Brad

It must be a universal thing my clothes are shrinking too more now that I retired.

I've started drinking some of that SlimFast stuff. You know, it isn't half bad with a bunch of chocolate chip cookies and a bag of potato chips. But I think their claims are overrated, I haven't lost one pound on it.


Well, I got my housework and laundry out of the way, and it is cooling off for the day, so it's time to go do some grinding.


Don

Hot Rods and Laundry, Look out hip hop a new fads on the wing!!!

Don.

You have to break the choclate chip cookies in half.
It lets the calories leak out!

Don the same with the potato chips, you only eat the broken ones they have no calories................lol
