Sorry to hear Larry, you'll find another soon.
My place is the opposite,...you have to take an extended training course to use a 2 step stool. :dizzy:

Converstion with my son last night....
Situation, I had clothes in dryer, he had a load in washer

The boy, " dad, did you go downstairs"
me, " yep, switch clothes over"
boy, " did you switch mine over"
me, " nope, I switch over the other person's wet clothes and left yours in the washer"
after a disgusted look,... " thanks dad"
I love screwing with his head, keeps him sharp :mrgreen:

Extended forecast for Cincy area....65-75* for next 13 days with only a few days of rain and now more sunlight, WOOHOO. I'm ready to plow some gardens!!!

Why I missed the work day at Tomm's...

Thursday night sitting there having dinner when my wife starts breathing funny and grabbing her chest. Hours later, still haven't been taken into a room at the hospital. EKG was ok when we first got there so probably no heart attack but possible issue with a blood clot. She said she wanted to leave and just see her doctor in the morning. Turns out all is OK but one hell of a scare and no sleep that night. I thought it best to stick close to home. She seems fine now.

Larry...good luck with the new job hunt.
Hart...hope you're feeling better.
Everyone else...be good.

Glad your wife is OK, kind of scary though I know first hand

Shakin my head, I thought ya knew me better than that :ROTFL:

Marlon_JBT · **Posted:** Tue Mar 13, 2012 4:52 pm

Glad your wife is OK, Ed!!!

Oh Hart, I now know what you went through with my rear sway bar bolts. I'm putting the extra upper isos in now. My arm is killing me, and my carpal tunnel just reminded me that it's still there.

Can somebody please come up here to my mom's house? :lol:

The front shocks are next!!!!! :pepper:

5:15PM - Got frustrated, dropped the spare.
5:27PM - Isos in, reassembling rear end...
5:40PM - STILL not done reassembling rear end...
5:59PM - Rear end DONE!!! (Tom, you were right, 1 hour with one person and a half hour with two people...)
7:28PM - I am going slower than christmas. Good news, no driver's side UBJ separation!!!

Whoa. Amazing how much height was gained with just one additional isolator!!

Still not finished. Need more tools AGAIN.

And no way to get them. No KJ.

tommudd · **Posted:** Tue Mar 13, 2012 9:22 pm

Marlon
Where oh where are you?
Should be done by at least now :wink:

waiting on pictures or something
:POPCORN:

Marlon_JBT · **Posted:** Tue Mar 13, 2012 9:34 pm

Had a small delay. Tools, had to go grab some that I didn't have.

Oh, and we forgot to tighten the lower clevis bolt on the passenger side. It was about to fall off.

I'm still working, should be finished within the next hour or so.

Another delay, my help is cooking dinner.

9:48PM - Top plates are a no-go, they won't fit and I don't have the patience to make them fit so back on the shelf they go. :lol:

9:54PM - DRIVER'S SIDE OME COIL AND SHOCK IS IN!!!!
11:54PM - Done.

Finally friggin done. Pics in the AM.

Don't say Like just yet.

The Good: Riding high. Really high. Love the ride too, much more controlled and doesn't "dip" as much as it used to which makes me happy. The stock springs, IMO, are way too soft. The KJ driving female relative was a huge help!

The Bad: I'm bleeding, sore and dirty. It took forever, and I want to know where all my tools went. Not remembering to put pressure on the UCA for the UBJ nut, dumb, I spent at least two hours figuring out how to handle that (Thanks Helper!!!). Finding out that we didn't tighten the lower bolt for the clevis the last time, I couldn't believe how loose it was. I'm surprised it hadn't already fallen off!

The Ugly: I lost my rake.

Gonna have to take care of that ASAP.

PS: I didn't have the UBJ problem with the KJ. By the time I jacked up the LCA, that gave it enough pressure to seat itself and keep the ball joint from spinning. Sometimes I get this Jeep, sometimes I don't.

BTW: I have an extra nut from the battery tray. Can't figure out where it goes. Oh well.

It goes with the other nut behind the wheel :shock:
