    Anyone around ABQ have an SWR meter I could come by and borrow for a few minutes? I finally got most all of the parts in (haven't gotten one damn adapter yet!) for my CB setup, but I will need to tune it up.

    I'm planning on installing everything this afternoon maybe, and could do today/tonight/any time Sunday, or even any time after 5pm next week.

    Yes. I can drop it off somewhere. You can swing by as well but I may have to go run some errands later today. Let me know which one you prefer.

    I have two of the MOOG greasable ball joints K80811, one K80827 (so order one more Moog K80827 balljoint) I have two OEM CV boot kits so your good there. Just will also need to get your tie rods.... I'm sure your wheel bearings and drive shaft bearing will need to be done soon but might as well wait till they start showing signs.

    Those Moogs good, SGT Taco? I am debating which brand to go with when I swap out mine. I have no indicators of bad BJs but since the Taco is at 127k I figure why not. And that entire prior sentence is Freud worthy.

    Hah, I just noticed your sig line about being the cooler decal guy :D

    I need to hunt down that "bad Moog" thread I saw somewhere and ask the folks what their issues were.

    I'm sure with the right amount of strain any BJ can break. Scott can tell you. He has personally handled the BJs.
