    I thought about it, but I don’t like the look of them and how boxy they are.

    They were 20.00 each, but again my gaskets were hard, not soft and sticky and dirt and sand was slipping through the rubber seams and I have a perfect line cut into the paint where the old rubber trim meets the paint on 3 of the fenders now. Good thing it’s under the flares tho.

    Went driving through some flooded streets, feels good that I raised it but I think I might go the full 3 inch.

    New Orleans had some crazy floods, we did have pumps in place but the old ones went and they replaced them with crappy ones.

    I dunno...at least hurricanes and storms in general are predictable. Earthquakes aren't really predictable at all, at least not in the same way weather patterns are.

    But on the other hand, earthquakes happen once in a blue moon compared to hurricanes and tropical storms happening regularly every year, which isn't something I'd want either. Hard choice to make lol.

    Each time zone has its own disaster, not much you can do whereever you go, east coast got quakes and fires, south got hurricanes and heavy rains, mid has tornadoes, east coast has hurricanes too, north has mostly rains.

    Took my interior out, replaced a broken antenna mount in my roof, so while I was at it, I installed the sound deadening material I had in my garage. This was a long day, almost 11 hours. Still need to install the console, front and rear seats and trim. I'm tired.

    To me upstream means the one closer to the motor. The one before the cats. Is that what you mean by upstream?

    It is my understanding the O2 sensor is after the cats (downstream) and the air/fuel ratio sensor is before the cats (upstream).

    Utah’s safe, other than the fault going through the middle of it, but no one likes that part anyway.
