Hey guys. Not a bad weekend on my side. A bit cool in the weather department and even cooler in the love side.

I finally had enough and told the gf that I couldn't put up with any more of her negativity. I did the inevitable, I told her goodbye, for the 3rd and final time. I can put up with a lot, but with her, I'd rather end up alone and broken, than to have her there to do more damage. lol

Time to put money into vehicles and not into girlfriends'.

Don't want to derail this thread, and don't want to clutter the forum with another thread. Buttt do any of you nice gentleman know where I could find the bolt size of the two bolts holding the idler arm to the frame? I know it's metric... reason being I need to tap one of them as it cross threaded. Can't find it anywhere...

I'd probably find a manufacturer of one and email them, if all else failed

Hey,Ak!- dont feel too bad- my dad is 79, and he's in the process of getting a divorce !- and they have only been married 2 years!- two old people set in their ways- no surprise i guess!

So he went out and bought a new f-150!

There are other fish in the sea ( but you hope they dont smell like it) lol!
Go cruising in lil' red, youre bound to catch some chicas eye!

I believe they are 10mm 1.5 pitch. The same as the engine/transmission mounting bolts.
