    Those are the ones I have been considering. Will be listening close for your impression of those.

    I don't wheel at all though bro. The only bumps I hit occasionally are speed bumps. I bought them for looks, Ball joints, and the thought of having a great alignment.

    I just ordered mine plus a CV axle seal. So, I'll have it now whenever.

    Hoping my CV is fine. Given my circumstances (modest lift, minimal noise that rarely happens), I'm thinking I might be okay. If I'm not, doesn't look like it's an awfully expensive part, though I remember in the Subaru world aftermarket CVs were consistently junk and the OEM or remanned OEMs were dramatically more expensive.

    Neighbor up the road a ways got a '16. Looks like an MGM SR5 AC. Not sure if it's a V6 or not. Don't know him (or her). About one house to far away for me to be able to put a face to the house.

    Just got back from a little exploring with my copilot.
    @ACKtrd30 W.Mtn Rd. Serious stuff there. :thumbsup: Looks like fun. Would not like to do it solo and preferably with someone that knows it better than I do.
    After that look we headed up to route 2 to see what we could see. River Rd. (paved) is very nice how it follows the river through. We stopped for lunch at a picnic area along there.
    Noticed that they are doing work on Black Brook Rd. (think that is the name of it).
    That's it. End of report. Nothing ground breaking today.

    Wish I saw him outside from time-to-time. The people immediately around me I'd recognize.

    You guys visit the Harbor Freight yet?

    I went yesterday and ended up buying a bunch of socket rails and wrench holders. Most of my tools are Husky, Craftsman, and Stanley, but my wrenches are all in a drawer (I probably have 5-6 of each size) so that gave me a way to split one set out by size rather than digging every time. Most of my sockets were in those awful plastic cases they came in so I put them on rails.
