    Haha, we're not thaatt far out. Wendell Falls is actually closer to Knightdale than Wendell proper, so only 15-20 minutes east of Raleigh.

    what he’s saying is there are corn and ‘baca fields tween Raleigh proper and you , it’s scary when there isn’t a slithering line of cars to follow, one might get lost having to navigate between the rows….

    You know it's hot/humid out right?

    I won't be available but it's not too bad of a job. That youtube video you posted should have everything you need covered for the front. Whatcha got going in the rear?

    That heat is going to make it fun haha. I know you’re suppose to get an alignment after but can I still drive a couple days without one?

    sure, you can drive right up til your tires are scrubbed away, it may take a few days, it may take a few weeks, mostly depends on how good you are getting back “close” to original alignment specs

    got a sawzall ?

    Anyone here attend Cars and Coffee Morrisville held the first Saturday of each month? It’s a really good turnout. I think it would be great to see more trucks.

    Hi, I went for the first time yesterday. Lots of nice rides indeed. I took my 2019 Mustang Bullitt. Tacoma stayed home. Not many trucks. Advise getting there very early. I arrived about 0830 and had to park a good distance from the main building. Put on your walking shoes for sure. Disappointed there were not more vendors there. For food, just a couple of trucks; they need more.
