    My son broke one in his 2006 Thundra. It took over an hour to remove the broken link. I fear the pot holes are winning.

    That reminds me, I need to buy a couple of those to swap out on my wife's Escape next oil change, which is just about due. This is her second Escape; they eat those links. Not broke just worn to where the sway bar is rattling over bumps. This one is a 2008, last one was 2001; me thinks there might be a design flaw. :rolleyes: Need to convince her to go 4Runner ... she's starting to lean that direction, but it's taking a while. I should have pushed the point harder before letting her get the 2008. Oh well ...

    Morning Ken. :wave:

    Tell her your time is planned for today. Let me know how that goes ... :laughing: :popcorn:

    Knew you were too wise to take the bait. Just thought I'd try for a little entertainment ... where's Adam, maybe he'll try it. :laugh:

    Afternoon Carl...if you believe that one, I got a 1939 ford corvette with a 726 turbo charged mouse power station wagon driven by a little old lady in her 100's with low mileage for only $200.00. At least Harrisburg is trying to sell it to us with the added gas tax:eek:...:rofl::rofl:

    No time to get the air brush out and practice.
    Went online and mostly stripes.
    So a Stripe it is.


    No buying from geek Sue.
    Can't help you there.

    Here's an "Only in Alaska" for you: Copper River fishing trip delayed one week because ....


    It's frickin' snowing over there. 18F overnight, 30F during the day thru mid-week. Last week I was worried we'd burn up ... Now it's raining steady and I'm delaying fishing trips for snow in frickin' June. :facepalm:

    I still love it up here ... It's rarely boring.

    Well, since I can't fish, no need burning vacation time. Nap time and I'll go ahead and work tonight.

    Take care everybody.

    Can't help with the geek Sue, but I did buy a replacement taillight from Rock Auto (also a sponsor on TW) and received it in the 5 days and it came with everything needed including the bulbs. Light fit great for an after market. Can't notice any difference.:D Hope this helps...
