I'm just about to go out and fire mine up fit the first time since fall. Planning to drive it into town later this week. (Of course, it might find its way down the driveway this afternoon.)
So do you need different links, White?
Yes I do... The sway bar actually sits below the K-Member at the moment. It really dropped it down.... there's a lot more clearance now. When I measured, I was measuring from the sway bar to the control arm, which was 6 inches. Energy Suspension sells these based off the spacer measurement. I had seen a different variation of this picture that is on the package, and I misunderstood the measurement somehow.
I remembered that the F150 links are shorter.... so I measured my links. They are 3 inches, and I really think those will work out really well.
So, my nephew sent me a text asking me for my address and that he had someone dropping something off for me. Turns out, he sent me a GMG Smoker... it's a Daniel Boone Prime with Wifi. Just got done doing the initial "burn in", and I'll probably throw some ribs on it tomorrow. The Wife already had dinner going early this morning, or it'd be cooking dinner right now. Can't wait!
I wound up ordering the F150 links. I really like the Moog Problem Solvers that I have on mine. That barrel nut really makes them top notch. I got both of them for almost nothing after using my Wife's rewards, LOL.
Utah, thank heavens, is holding strong at just under a 1% mortality rate. That said, around half of the 41 people that died were in nursing homes. A couple were also on Hospice, so these figures may be a little skewed by those types of inaccuracies. Also, my friend that passed was found to NOT have it.

I took a page out of AK's book today. I ordered some of the cheap rear control arms for the Mustang.... after reading that the arms are top notch, but the bushings in the kit are "so-so", I hit Amazon to get some Prothane bushings for it. I was pretty surprised when they were 42 dollars, because I'd seen these same bushings for almost double this price. So I ordered them yesterday, and now Amazon has raised the price to 57 dollars, which is still a great deal.
Since my knees are messing with me this year, I've decided that I am not going to work in the wrecking yard this summer. My doctor is shooting for a mid June scoping of my the left knee, so I will stay home and fix crap around here. This fall I get my lake home back, so if nothing changes, I'll have my garage back this winter. It all depends on this virus. If the family there are allowed to move, then I'll have it back. If the government says they can't (works in the military), then it will have to be in the spring. All the travel and switching of bases has been suspended up here. I'm sure it's that way everywhere right now.
Great deal Whitey. If you are really wanting something, you can find it usually somewhere. Hopefully at the right price too. lol
I finally got the garden hoses set up for the spring and will finally wash Sonya and Red. The weather is nice and sunny, a bit cool with the wind but nothing that is too bad not to enjoy it. I took the door lights and put in the RGB LED's. The overhead light also got one. I left the map lights original, but with the controller, I can now change those 3 to whatever color (16 colors, no shades). Right now they are set to the blue like the dash cluster, but when it gets dark out I'll go out and play with them some. Problem is it doesn't get dark until almost 10:45 pm. We are already over 16 plus hours of daylight and it's not even May yet.
Is Rivers on a sabbatical? Haven't seen or heard from him in over a week. Maybe it's that I just missed his posts.
