The company that made those shocks no longer exists Have you removed AHC yet?

 

That's for driver feedback.

 

My only regret... is that I have.. boneitis


But seriously. The doctor at children's hospital told my parents I had juvenile spondyloarthropathy, which is just a broad term for joint conditions. As I was growing up my skeleton grew faster than the cartilage that connects it so I had serious mobility issues and alot of bone on bone grinding in all my major joints. Thankfully the cartilage caught up or else I would have died in my early 20s when the joints would have started fusing themselves together.


Lol I'm definitely man out of time, having been partially raised by my depression era grandparents I can be considered more old fashioned than my age eludes.

 

Geez. That sounds pretty crazy. How long did that last?

Its amazing the range of human experiences. I'm roughly the same age, but my parents were WWII era, but they also missed the 70s because they were overseas. Definitely reflected in me.

 

Baby monitors are creepy AF... Hear a noise in the middle of the night and look at the monitor and see this



Damn night vision gives her demon eyes lol

 

Let me help you "boys" out. My Social Security Retirement checks help fund my truck projects.

 

Won't be long until she breaks out of that jail!!

 

Seriously, I already had to lower the bottom of the crib a couple months ago because she was practically able to jump right out of it

 

Changed a flat tire in dark, in 5 inches of snow this morning


Fuck that

 

What does this port/plug of the intake manifold do?

 

About a year of symptoms onsetting until my parents got me checked out because my grandparents could move around better than i could.. then I was bed ridden for about a year, then about 3 years of physical therapy and an ungodly amount of naproxen. All that naproxen everyday made me develop an allergy (I think that was the cause) because now any NSAIDs will put me into anaphylaxis lol





Awww your poor parents, my parents tell me the 70s were a great time man

 

Aaaand I'm looking at buying a BMW 535xi again

 

I dunno but here's where mine is attached on my 98

 

Oh yea. I just removed AHC. I've got a 3"+ lift in the rear. Hell, I like the way this Dobinsons suspension rides and handles much better. It doesn't drive like an off-road vehicle but more like a sports truck. No more land yacht feeling. My buddy that had a 100 and installed OME shocks drove it last night. He said that OME had a rougher ride and was more bouncy. But when you need control you have it. To me, it feels like the difference between driving a car with a Monroe vs. Koni strut suspension.

 

How much difference does it make what side you out Dakar packs on. I got one A and one B.

the B side is a - leaf and the A side is a + leaf. Some people say put the plus on the drivers side and others say put the B side on the drivers.

 

Maaan. Thats wild. Human body is such a weird thing sometimes.


Oh my parents enjoyed it, they were travelling all over and living in the middle east when it wasn't a complete mess. They probably missed out on Led Zeppelin though.

 

@BartMaster1234 you didn't tell us you built a boat

 

demon eyes

 

that sounds like a seriously uncomfortable time
