Yes.

I just dropped them on to see the angle change. The boots are trashed from the angle so I need to replace them.

I put the tie rods and center link in before I reinstalled the torsion bars. If I had done it in the opposite order the bad angle would have been very obvious
 
Are we having fun yet?

Chased down the connector that was causing my left front directional to not work.

Yay for upside down under the dash with the brake pedal pinning my head to the carpet

Grub was good. She made macaroni salad and fruit salad. I grilled burgers. Went great with a Dragons Milk. :thumbsup:I was going to do a bit more tonight. But I needed a new box for the outlet . Ace was closed, so ran to Home Depot.(replacing old Bakelite one that was in wall I removed) I think I will just nut the wires together so the circuit works and call it a day. Still debating where to put it. Perfect spot would be where the stud is. :BangHead: Easy answer is right where I dropped the wires, in the space where the wall was. It will clear the new mirror there, but not by much..
 
I just popped a pan of rhubarb crisp in the oven. a 7x11 pan? WTF 9X12 is all I have.
 
Wow, the neighbor needs new blade bearings on his mower deck. I can hear them growling with the doors and windows closed. :rofl::rofl:
 
i agree,,,double flare totally on American and MOPAR cars. Double flares prevent leaks if properly made and assembled. I assume modern day cars use double flares also.

Why not, I also agree that double flare is the way to go. No brake leaks is safer too, especially out on the freeway.

I bet double flares are mandatory on automotive applications. "Your brake flares provide a leak-proof connection between the hoses and fittings, without any need for a sealant. All brake lines need to be double flared, due to the high hydraulic pressure. If your brakes leak or the hoses crack, it could prove to be fatal. Single flared lines are suitable for low-pressure lines in other applications, but not your vehicle’s brakes. For example, your vehicle manufacturer may use them in fuel and coolant lines, since they’re cheaper than double flared lines. It also wouldn’t be quite as dangerous for those lines to break. They’re not under the same amount of pressure. Double flared lines, on the other hand, help reduce friction at the flares, which can cause cracking or leaks."

Most modern cars are using Bubble Flares.
