    Hey everyone,
    @Wild Crow. Got this put in, the hardest part was literally drilling the holes w/o hitting the heat controls.
    Still waiting for the ram arm to arrive, hence the holding of the phone.
    Should be here tomorrow.

    Oh yeah it only took 2 songs playing to install. So maybe 7 min.

    Nice. You know those knobs would've just pulled right off so they wouldn't bed in the way.

    Now I might need to get a tech deck.....

    Yeah, but I think the angle let the screws bite a little better with the pressure pulling in them. Its in there solid!

    For the price, it was worth it to keep my phone and iPod out of the cup holder.

    That's just the standard version? I know the HD has some sort of backing plate installed in the dash.
    Let us know how wiggle free it is after you get your stuff mounted to it

    It's just money you can always make more. Worst case just print some of your own like the government. :rofl:

    I too wonder how long/well the screws will hold once loaded up driving on the crap roads around here. Not to mention off-roading.

    Been staring at my lift kit still in the box for about 2 weeks now. I can't seem to get a day without rain when I have time to do it.

    Pretty sure I could find a hole deep enough to hold a school.

    Nah, I only know one guy with a decent "mechanics" garage in town but he's got a 64 Falcon blown apart into about 500 pieces in there right now. This "no garage" bullshit must be a Virginia thing. I lived in CA for 40 years and never lived in a house without one.

    This weekend is looking pretty good so far, only calling for partly cloudy and in the high 40's I can deal with that. On the plus side, you cant feel busted knuckles when your hands are freezing :eek:.
    I'm also replacing my front rotors, pads, & brake lines on all 4 corners. Any idea how much brake fluid I should buy?
    One more... do you think a ball joint separator is necessary, or will a few slams from a dead blow hammer do the trick?

    Dead blow should work fine or even a heavy ball pien hammer. I'd get a qrt just to be safe it's not exspensive
