Yep got one also and your'e right can't set still for more than a minute.
 
Morning gents. Wow what a difference a few days makes. From sweating to getting a sweatshirt in a matter of hours. Yesterday at the car show is was really cold and a cold wind to boot. Good turn out though considering. 71 cars and lots of people milling around. 50/50 was just over 400 bucks but I didn't get it. Got chilled and couldn't get warm all night.

Morning Fred...yeah it's getting that time of year when you don't know how to dress for the day. Cool in the mornings, warm in the day and cool again at night. They had snow way up North yesterday. Snow is a 4 letter word in my vocabulary.

If I could I would jump in the motor home and head south for part of the winter but still have my youngest living at home so will have to wait 2 more years. Not a big deal he is a good kid and in joy having him around.
How's the new shed working out Mark.

The shed is really good. Very happy with it. Like I said earlier it's a little smaller than the one we had but got rid of stuff we didn't use anymore so all is good. Supposed to get 20-40mm (1.5 inches) of rain starting tonight so it'll be a good test. Nice you still have one of your kids still at home. Good company for you Fred.

Just sitting here talking to my son he just got off work. Yea I need him around for awhile longer.
That's a fair bit of rain Mark hope you can swim.
 

Hey FOG been looking at new upper A arms for my scamp from QA1. Are you happy with yours and were you able to get it aligned right. My stock ones they tell me will not get close enough to keep the tire wear even.

Well Fred should have done it a long time ago , what a difference ,I enjoy driving the car now ! The reason I was so far out was you should mark the camber bolts before you take them out , so you get it relatively close when you put the new ones in. Let me tell you those bolts were never changed since 1973 they were rusty and fought me every 1/8 of an inch. I tried an impact chisel but the bolts are in rubber bushings so that did no good , soak and chisel, took me hours for one bolt, one was easy . My son did it on a laser alignment machine and because I also changed the height by the torsion bars . So it was way out but he got it . Handles so nice . Worth every cent ! Also the QA1 has grease fittings on all the camber bolt bushings .
 
If you have any questions Fred , always here to try and help you from afar. I watched a video on U-tube the guy knocked out the camber bolts with a claw hammer ...lol He said see how easy it is .:rofl:

I had mine apart last year FOG and it came apart real easy but the guy that pressed out the ball joints bent both A arms and had a hell of a time getting them straight again and the new tires are starting to wear on the in side.
Your son must work on alignments and know what he is doing, the front end guys around here are a bunch of idiots and will not tell me how far out my front end is and would guess they don't know.
I just readjusted mine with a tape measure to keep it from wearing out my tires and will get the QA1's this winter.
Good to know they work thanks FOG.
 
He let me watch , when he did it his Boss let us use the shop on a Saturday. The machine gives out all the readings. Yes he sure knows what he is doing. You have to find yourself a good shop !

Might be cheaper to drive over there and let your son do it right.
I get tired of the guys that think they know what they are doing and you look in there tool box and find, like you said a claw hammer.
