We are about to ride the Illinois weather roller coaster Somewhere between 1 and 6 inches of snow later today/over night followed by maybe some ice Then rain and a high of 40 early tomorrow morning. Then the bottom falls out and drops to 4 with 25mph~ winds Don't think the wind chill will be above 0 until Wednesday then more rain and mid 40s by the end of next week.

They said ~7 inches of snow here starting tonight with winds up to 50mph.
It is currently 14F but its a gorgeous sunrise.

Said the individual that just bought a huge mobile butt-plug for his Z. Yeah, looks a little big, I agree, but think of all the money you'll now be saving not buying cases of V-Tight like you did in the past.

Now you can just grip it n rip it as they say.

Bobby is crooked. Anybody who jumps in bed with him is in the same category in my book.

I can't in good conscience sell you a car part that will sit in the box for two years. That would constitute abuse

I’ll have to read an catched up later; getting ready for work-but all 50 bolts,nuts,washers installed & barely snugged until block removal tomorrow morning
Went a tick large on the hole to give me movement while I remove blocks from underneath & later will install a crush sleeve in each hole
