    7 1/4 to a 8 3/4

    If you can find an a-body 8.75 complete assembly with leaf springs, it's a much more simple swap.

    Didn't Take Long After Moving to Find a Mopar Guy!

    I went into a squadron gym. Mind you, there are three very nice fitness centers on base but most squadrons also have a gym...it's special Ops! Anyway, so I go into this gym - it's huge...everything you can imagine. In all four top corners of the room were huge speakers blaring - I mean...

    Didn't Take Long After Moving to Find a Mopar Guy!

    Thank you for your service!! I love being back on an Air Force Base. For the first two weeks anytime I answered the phone, I said TRDI, Sergeant Trace here!! Old habits die hard. Hurlburt is a very nice Base. Super nice facilities because of the mission. The AC-130 is no joke. It'll ruin...

    Monthly internet connection costs. Question?

    We had and are getting again at our new home, AT&T fiber. When we had it in Georgia it was only $55/month, no other charges. We dropped cable a couple years ago. For awhile we had Hulu Live, which started at $65/month but went to $81. Now we have Hulu plus ESPN+, and Peakcock (which gives...

    Didn't Take Long After Moving to Find a Mopar Guy!

    The Georgia place sold in 5 weeks. Felt like a long time to us as we moved into a short term rental in Florida and still paid our mortgage!!! But 5 weeks is good. Here in the Florida panhandle houses priced fairly are sold in days!!

    U-Haul car trailer experience?

    Their trailers are great well built and fairly light. In the last two months I've used them twice, both times pulled behind their box truck. This was two weeks ago. I also loaded up the Barracuda before pulling it on the trailer. That 26' truck pulling a trailer got horrendous gas mileage...

    Thinking of moving to Florida in the next year

    I have heard, but never investigated myself, that it is getting challenging to find nice areas in Jacksonville. A Navy family recently got orders to move there. They have been exploring areas to find a nice place for the family.

    Thinking of moving to Florida in the next year

    We recently moved to Florida from north Georgia. My thoughts: I loved north Georgia. We lived in Rome. Not stupid cold and not stupid hot. Cost of living was excellent. People were great for the most part. Had a great home with almost an acre in a subdivision in the woods. Been in Fort...

    Moving to Florida this Weekend

    Ya know, I joined the Air Force in 1984 and didn't know Combat Control or Pararescue existed until I became a recruiter in 1993 or I probably would have gone for it. I was all into my Air Traffic Control radio maintenance job.

    Cool. We're considering Navarre. We've been down to Fort Walton twice but haven't had a chance to explore yet. It's pretty close to Hurlburt giving a decent commute. Tuesday and Wednesday of this week they had a sign up on state route 85 warning about 90 minute road closure due to...

    I go in for tire repair and the man asks about my windshield wipers....?

    I have a work car that I take to the dealership for oil changes. They would ALWAYS come out with a "dirty" engine and cabin filter. They wanted something like $120 to replace both so I reject. Then the next time I replaced both (with the company card) for about $45 before taking it in just...
