You just cannot have any privacy, people taking pics and postings of your home, LOL

Although you are using spring rate to achieve a specific ride height, they are totally separate functions. The compression rate and ride are spring rate results. Ride height is the length of the spring and or spacers. If your coil overs are adjustable use that for rebound and compression in...

Trying to figure out my next move.

Will a short filter solve the issue? The Coyote installs on Cobra kit cars, require the short filter. I had to remove the sandwich oil cooler that came on my Aluminator crate engine. I do not have the short filter part number, but it comes in most common brands.

What a nightmare!

Hope the washing machine is on the other end. Just looks too risky.

They had an anniversary event at Barber Motorsports. I got an invite to bring some cars, but could not fit, getting them ready and showing up, in the schedule. I was hoping some pics would show up, but so far, 0. I feel sure, Ford had some reps there, and able to answer some questions. Now I...

Haircut , beard, eyebrows, and ears if needed, $18 + $2 tip. First barber, I ever had that listens and cuts it like I want, every time.

I use Tire and Wheel cleaner for Alum rims. It does not fuzz up alum parts and is gentle on painted surfaces. After drying spray with Honda Spray and Shine. It is designed to be safe on all motorcycle surfaces, which includes rubber, paint, chome, alum, etc. You can wipe it down or let it...
