Whitey.....yes they are including the Expedition. I looked at over 20 rigs in the yards and private, and most of them are broken on both sides. People break them in the cold and removing snow so often here. It may be that way in the UPPER Peninsula of Michigan or Minnesota also.

I'd appreciate it if you could find one and if not too outrageous, get it for me. I'll PayPal whatever the costs. Thanks.

 

Define "outrageous", LOL.

I like to go on Wednesday because it's half off day.

Here's the price list.... not sure what it would fall under? Maybe Cowl?

If I read that right that would be 17.19 and tax if you have it right? So 9.00 or so plus postage? Not a problem. I'd never seen this before, as we don't have those up here. We have yards that hold your kids hostage until you come up with their prices. LOL.

 

Yeah, we have two that I like a lot. This yard I posted is my favorite though. I know a couple people that work there now.

My Buddy is going to get a business account there and put me on it.... that gets me 20% off all other days, and free entry every day.


Here's the price list for the other place. This place is cleaner, and has asphalt instead of gravel... but it's a bit more usually.

Ohhhh, and the first yard I linked participates in the www.row52.com national inventory. So they usually take pictures of the cars so you can see how bad they are.... when they receive them, anyway.

 

Yea, it must be just that way in UP then or not. The 98 has never sat outside until now anyway. Probably why it's still in one piece...hell I'm still using my 2008 Bosch Icons. THAT has to be a record lol.

 

Speaking of old wipers.... have you guys ever heard of doing this?

 

Over the lifetime of owning a trucking company, could you imagine a guy all day long going along and keeping up with wiper blades in that fashion. That would be more expensive in time than the blades themselves being replaced. For a family, it would be fine, unless the rubber is damaged, then you still replace it. Hmmm. Armor All on your blades???? Interesting idea.

 

Actually, it's a good idea if you want to spend the time. Of course, as soon as you use your washers it's going to cut right through it and wash off. Or the rain I guess. But while stationary, it'll should prevent the blades from drying out...splitting.

Once in awhile I'll hit them with denatured alcohol...that pine tree sap cakes up after awhile. Never oil them though...yet!

 

I just was posting in another thread about ebrakes, and I thought I'd post this picture here also. I don't think that it looks bad for a 20 year old model. You can still be the paint up under there. This is from my Blue 98 Scab. If this had been 25 years ago, there would of been holes in the frame from all the salt we used to have. Now our trucks and cars are staying whole.
