Definitely would have paid to know your rights beforehand there. Could of capitalized vs ***** mode.

The wiser folks, although unsure, used their heads first and handled it perfectly.

Right...butthole for sure. I didn't catch the business, but I'm sure it (he anyway) lost respect.

I'm not sure those details have been delivered yet. But there are a bunch of quotes from each player. Merlin, last years winner, is going to be the "Grand Master".

Hard coming out (the torsion bars) w a young wrench's help. I derusted it prior to replacing it. He bit¢hed when I painted it saying there'd be NO clearance to reinstall. But I wiped the paint away with a rag, leaving only what remained in the rust pits, greased it, again removing most w a rag, cleaned the receiver holes. Went it like liquid snot, to his youthful great joy. My SCab and I will help him move 6 blocks as he expands 415Mechanix in 2 weeks.

Why did adding ~6" to it to make it a SCrew make the front need a suspension change?!?
Well , short and simple version. The frame jump behind the cabs are in different locations.

Shorter T-bars may be due to the 4R100 not being offered in SCREW. It was 4 plus inches longer that 4R70w.

Crap, I missed the announcement thing. Not a F-book or Instagram scriber and I believe my Myspace is no longer mine.

EDIT: Ahh, it was announced in today's vid... didn't realize Matt dropped one today.

Yeah... it was Carmax he worked for. Not sure if that's a national company or not, I thought it was though.

Kind of a strange question.... but have you guys been finding it harder to find 5W-20 oil on the shelf lately? Seems like 5W-30 is all I see anymore.

No problem around here. Stores have plenty.

Amazon claims they can get me all I can afford to buy at my house in two days.


What "Global Materials" part of China is this crap made in?
What won't they slap the craftsman name on What won't they slap the craftsman name on

I don't know , but Amazon can have it to me tomorrow.
