Just remember: powder cast connecting rods are extremely common.

How does that make you feel?

About the same as when I handsawed thru a bimmer control arm in about 2 minutes with an old general purpose 6" sawzall blade in an unpowered manual handle

Pulled the plug on a set of Rancho RS9000 loaded adjustable quicklift struts

~600 bucks for all 4 shipped from Rockauto after the $80 rebate...

Sorry Bilstein, 200 bucks more for the simplicity of a matched preassembled kit with a warranty, new springs new mounts and no guesswork involved won out

Plus their economy shipping somehow promises to be here by Friday

Started engine and it revved super high then started shaking violently... turned it off and heard a loud ping... then heard fluid leaking out...i put in Preston 50/50 cuz it was on weekend and I needed the truck running for this week... most likely I'll flush it and get the motorcraft antifreeze to put in

Yesterday was on the thruway and traffic started slowing down.... really slowing down.... I was on 7 miles to E and no exit close... I see a puff of black smoke in the sky... apparently a Subaru Forester decided to burn to the ground so the fire chiefs blocked off lanes for the fire trucks to pull up. Hey at least love makes a Subaru a Subaru right? It was gridlock. needless to say I ran this sucker at 0 Miles to E for a pretty good amount of time and she still made it to the gas station. Kinda scary driving around looking down at "0 Miles to E" haha. All I had was a $20 on me.... gave me under a quarter tank.

How many miles did you get out of "0"?

Or was it more of a minutes thing??? Btw, if youre in no particular hurry, next time you might want to pull over and wait for traffic to clear or something
