It’s amazing how much nasty crap you pull out of vehicle seats, no? I’m always amazed.
I thought they were bad until i got to that console lid. Jeez that thing was nasty.

If you want a little more than stock height for the rear, a set of explorer leafs work well and they increase the load capacity.

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.

Man, I just want my junk done so I can go take part in some car shows
Well, all you have left is the part that isn't finished yet. You'll get it done.

If I could get stuff to stop breaking long enough to actually get things fixed I will get it done. Just did brakes on mom’s SUV all around, have to do front wheel bearings on dad’s Ranger, they are still after me to work on the Explorer so they can sell it, did half the front brakes and wheel bearings on the 150 because that’s all I had time for, engine swap and tranny work to the 92, and I have barely touched the 2000 all year because of that and work. Don’t get me started on the dump truck or choptop or 88…

Oh, and mustn’t forget the GFs car.

the grey-t escape
I went to a mopar nationals event yesterday, one of the things going on (besides all-day drag races, hundreds of classic mopars, a burnout contest) was a stunt show by a production group called “northeast ohio dukes”- with special guest stars tom wopat (luke) and catherine bach (daisy) . And of course, the cars. No cooters wrecker or uncle jesses truck (they have them, but taking this show on the road most of the way down ohio you cant bring everything). Great road trip, was about 75 miles for me, I really need to add cruise control to the ranger, was only $25 a ticket to get in.
