EoD tursday,,
WP delenda est,,,,
TWO entire paragraphs just went POOF!!! dagnabbit,,,,
Ball joints in hand, and tomorrow is dedicated to Buffalo. Weather is not a factor as if the sky is crying, I move our sorry butts down there and use his basement. Otherwise, its under the carport, same as when I did the idler arm and pitman arm a couple weeks back.
Did you know there is a company making rack and pinion replacements for the S10 quadralateral steering system? I didn’t either,,, But I thought it kinda cool. Would love to eliminate several weak links in a high demand system. But that sort of price is for someone that is really tweaking the hell ouf of a racer,,, Not little old Dio and his, we’ll call it ‘Frugal’ this time out, self. Yeah, that sounds a whole lot better than ‘tight assed cheap-meister” LOL. I definitely miss the Rack and pinion of my Fiats. Easiest FEA EVER!!!! Took longer to set the machine up and run the swings than it took to make the adjustments. Could have done it with a broomstick and a string. Buffalo,,, not so much,,,, Can be done, have seen it done, but NOT in my gravel driveway. That needs a GOOD FLAT concrete floor to play that game.
ALL the cash in hand for boat buying on saturday. Talked to Seller for about an hour last night, and we are going for a ‘test drive’ on the Tennessee river (depending on how beat the f up I am from driving five hours one way. Its seven to my sis’s and I usually do that ‘straight through’ other than fuel and hyrdraulic releases. I figure I would be good for a half hour paddle. So my prediction of ‘dry Dio weekend’ was premature,,, STOKED is what I am right now.
Gotz to get the four-feets situatied right now and some other things about the place since tomorrow is grubby wrench on wore out chevy day,,,,
more laters,,,,,,
