Here's a new one for you.......

put some new shocks on my daily d100 today and was initially quite puzzled when I went to replace the passenger side front. At first, I couldn't figure out what the hell was going on with my lower control arm but a quick text to Jpar and he figured it out.
The previous owner(or someone) had wedged an old jack cup underneath the lower control arm. I have been driving this thing for a while and I'm shocked I never noticed it. It tucked into the space underneath perfectly.
Jpar reminded me that this thing could have really hurt someone had it come loose on the freeway or something. It probably weighs 4-5 lbs.
Glad it's out and my old beater truck rides great with it gone and a new set of Monroe gas shocks!
