    I always used rainx on all my vehicles so since AutoZone didn't have them I went w/ the Bosch & haven't had any problems even w/ all the rain lately in MD. Never tries the trico. Also I apply a lil rainx 2-in-1 glass cleaner to them periodically.

    Parked it for the next 2 months to use my wife's car for the 90 mile daily round trip to work.

    Running high test for the SC will put me in the poor house. I went from 5 to 90 miles for my new job.

    Made a little antenna to replace the factory one. More aesthetic than functional. image.jpgimage.jpg image.jpg

    That was a solid axle vehicle, no fair :angrygirl:

    IFS makes the strategy a bit different, generally

    Anyone have any idea what causes the rubber isolator to pop out like this? Happened on both struts after a few thousand miles on my lift. Headstrong sent me new ones for free since they were assembled by them, but I'd like to avoid it from happening again. So, I'm open to ideas....

    Takes real commitment to break that. Congrats?

    Kidding aside, sorry to see that. Hope you can get back on the road quickly.
