    The camera reports back to the temple, if he so much as smells a coffee, they'll know.

    It looks like tonight will be the coldest night. Will be that way here too.

    Temp fluctuations will be crazy this week. Supposed to get down to -20° in Winthrop tonight.

    I have a creek/waterfall feature that has plants growing in and around it that dumps back into the koi pond, but because of winter the most fancy stuff I can really have are the roses. The rest of the cover around it is some reeds, some kind of flower that looks similar to a tulip, and a lot of mint. Thankfully we really don't get the skeeters much where I am and whatever ones try to land in the pond get eaten.

    Should post that in the vendor section, or whatever area in the forum where it's more appropriate; more exposure.

    But yeah, I tried spending money with them and they were really horrible at even answering a PM, tag, email, or returning a phone call after leaving a voicemail; I had tagged that one person that used to work there (Marie, before TG bought them) and nothing.

    All I was trying to do was place an order (Tacoma parts, full suspension). Glad they got none of my money.

    They deleted their subforums in the vendor area. I guess I could throw it in the OME thread. Just figured it would have a little exposure in the What Have You Done thread. Open to suggestions. Some can't stand Marlin and refuse to do business with them, that's how I feel now with those 4. Headstrong still has a section in the Vendors area, who were they purchased by again?

    At least when Holley purchased ADS they left them pretty autonomous, they just help facilitate more OEM options.

    Gross lol, I've accepted that our trucks are on the outs for support. If you can't build your own stuff you'll soon be hiring someone who can, that way you can adapt more generic parts.

    True, I was being lazy and figured it was quicker to just order fully assembled coilovers. Have access to a stand-up spring compressor less than 15 minutes away so there's that option. Guess I just have to order the springs and save some cash which isn't a bad thing. Should've just done it in the first place.

    For fronts yeah, I guess your best option would be 4WP near a sale. They're not bad for that kind of stuff, at least if they order it into their store they aren't gonna lose it and then put it on you haha
