    Super long shot here: Any of you fellas happen to have a spare coilover lower mount bolt I could grab pending replacement? Preferably one that looks better than this:

    Have you tried a dealer? Stevens Creek Parts is open today.

    Otherwise, about the only place you might find something is a Lowes and even then, probably won't be one you should use.

    The last couple of times I've gone for what I feel are "stock" items, parts they should have, they've been out. You might try Amazon. As dumb as that is, you can often get parts tomorrow.

    My favorite store for this kind of stuff is Outdoor Supply Hardware. Their fastener selection is awesome and blows away Lowes and HD. I love how "OSH" has been revived and improved.

    @EDDO im fairly confident that they will have something you can use. Two stores in SJ. 1x in RWC.

    Temp solution in place. Reusing damaged bolt with replacement coilover. Expect to fuck up another set of misalignment spacers by doing this. Ordering OEM bolts and 4 lower spherical rebuild kits from Icon. #iconequippedhooptie

    True story. I'm sitting in Il Postal in Sunnyale and having dinner. This woman walks in and she's wearing a Hepcat T-shirt. The band is of a genre that you don't hear much so I said "Love your t-shirt!" and she says "oh, my husband here is in the band". Met Kincaid Smith and got to talk Hepcat for a few minutes. He's the trumpet player.

    :goingcrazy:

    Literally one of the reasons I learned to play the trumpet in High School (Skatalites too) was/were the solos. Plus some other big band influences...

    Very cool!

    Nice. Ever listen to Morphine? One of my favorite bands. I still can't believe there was only 3 of them playing. Sounds way big band for 3 guys. RIP Sandman.

    Anyone near Plaskett Meadows that can help a buddy? Got a message from his sat phone saying they need a spot weld on rear axle. Not sure if it’s super critical, but figured I’d get a jump on it if someone happens to be adventuring
