Quote: Got robbed at the dodge dealership today. Lower control arm bolt.

$61 WTH Good thing I only need one set... One was rusted so bad I had to cut it off the axle. then I lost the washer. The other one came right off.
iv got a box with 11 of those and countless nuts to fit it so when i lose one i pick up another when im working. shoot ill give you a heck of a deal ill tell you what if you send me 50 bucks ill send you 2 bolts

oh and its not about the material its about what it takes to make it but those should only be a few bucks at the most.

Gave it a tune up: new Champion Pt plugs, wires, cap and rotor.
Installed a couple of small, cheapy LED light strips inside: one beneath the the little stuff holder below the glove box, and one around the base of the steering column. (I've always thought the interior is a little dark at night- the inst cluster lights etc. just don't provide enough light inside.) I repurposed the wiring to the ashtray lamp for this one, since the light socket had a nice little connector from it to the wiring harness that was easliy accessed from under the dash : clipped the hot and ground wires from the lamp socket, spliced each to the wires on the light strips, and viola - light strips come on when the headlamps are on :-) Nifty...and I will take some effin pictures soon...

haha ok way off but it does look similar to one camping spot off of coopers creek that has plenty of room to drive down to the creek past the actually "spot" looks cool though.

Changed my right-front axel u-joint mostly by myself for the first time. Had to buy a bigger hammer. That's the most expensive thing I've ever hit with a hand-sledge.
