    That'd be awesome. Right off of Baxter road. I can PM you my address. I'll try that right after work tomorrow. I get off at 11ish. Gonna try and let it soak in PB blaster over night.

    Intake, exhaust, lift. Typical stuff.
    IIRC, one of the issues was the press didn't sit straight and the ball joint would bind. You need a hammer to keep it straight, striking the press plate.

    I was reading up on it and I saw more than one write up where they hacked the threads off of the ball joint so they could fit a socket in it and that's what I did:

    I just don't think I had enough power to press it out.

    That's what the hammer is for :D

    If you don't have it out by tomorrow, I can swing by. I get off at around 4-5ish and I'm at NOB now so probably be around 6-7.

    Fuck 1st gen UCA's. Didn't help that the pervious owner probably hucked them through half the state of California and bent the ever living crap out of the snap rings!

    Seriously though, get a small piece of wire and loop it into the two holes on the ends of your snap ring and twist them together. Won't keep them from falling out but will be an easy inspection point to make sure they aren't slowly backing out. The driver side one has me worried. Maybe even call Camburg and get a new set of rings.

    Thanks man! 265/75/16, they're brand new so it will be a while before I can upgrade. I don't think they look bad at all though.

    So, when the hell are we going to do a range day? I think we should do a little mini meet at C2. Another Coastie on here is inbound this summer and has expressed interest in throwing lead downrange.

    I've got a few. If anyone want to shoot the AR, you're buying the ammo. Nearly $1 a round is too rich for me right now.
