No lift. Just going to do it in the garage while it's on jack stands. I'll get my brother to come down when it gets to be that time. The snowball of work keeps getting bigger. Hopefully no new discoveries. Haha
Stop in for a cup of coffee

They are just a PIA to change out alot of items attached and need to be supported.
Good time for a bushing change if needed also.
Yes. I have the PST kit ready to go
Morning!
A balmy -29 this morning. Yup, winter isnt giving up yet.
Getting closer with the ford, one valve cover to pull and swap a cam solenoid so it matches the 2011 wiring harness. With harness off its easy to access valve covers.
Lots of work backed up,need to get this done.

If you can find one buy the mopar front end tool kit. Makes life so much easier and when done with it you will have no issues selling it. My neighbor has one I have borrowed a few times. Let me find a pic/link for one.
Mopar Performance Front Suspension Tool Kit (manciniracing.com)
Removes and installs all the bushings and a ball joint socket. Worth every dime and no press needed.
Did you get rid of your Barracuda Hoppy ?
No just in the other side of the garage right now. I have alll the panels to weld on just I realy do not want to do it smyself ince there is alot of alignment to get right with the rear trunk panel out which I have a good one. Timmy said he would Stay a few days and help me out with it after Carlisle.
Willie if you order that kit make sure it is the one with the a body ball joint socket.
THAT would have been nice to have when I was messing with mine! Did give me an excuse to buy a 3/4 drive breaker bar tho : ) Thankfully I already had the bearing press
my wife would understand
Yeah, my wife would understand. She'd say, "Now you understand why I smacked you upside the head"?
I tell you what if you ever used one there is no other way. Takes the upper control arm bushing out like nothing, same with the lower one.
Prolly no time for pictures but please share your nightmare with us if you find the time. Sounds like a straight up PITA!
Man has to cheat sometimes, breakfast served to me this morning for a change.. now the radio is saying high of 65, so I will burn this off, half this plat will go in a doggie bag for the wife to nibble on
Marilyn is a nurse also, she spit her coffee out when I read it to her!
Well have a Great Day All! Good luck with your projects, get better Karl and Mike save me some lol!
