The Descriptive Process

[1270d]

The auto parts store here pushes moog and some other cheapo brand ball joints. We re lucky to get a couple years out of moogs and the last set of the cheaper ones lasted about 2000 miles.

They have a replacement warranty but I sure am not going to put their crap product back in if I have to do all the labor.

Next time it will be factory parts only.

All of our trucks are 99 to 06 super duty fords

I used moog in other trucks. A lot of people on CF and DTR are having bad luck with them and then another set are loose in the socket after the moog. Makes me leary of using them for around $300 a set. I may check with the dealer for stock replacement ones.

If they ball joints had fittings I'd grease them. The originals don't so until I replace them there's no good way to grease them without risking tearing the boot.

Ack, I have a summer cold. Today is one of those days when it is foggy and hot.It is very humid and my nose is running like a faucet. Benadryl doesn't help, neither does the stuff I have been blasting up my nose. On the plus side I have very little appetite, I went to the Lions club lunch meeting and paid $17.00 and only ate a piece of salmon. Lettuce tastes horrible. Even Brussells sprouts aren't tasting good!

Wife's been out of town for a week with the two older kids, leaving me with the six year old twins. Of course, the night she leaves, one wakes me up at 1 am with "daddy, I threw up". I was so sleepy, I actually said "in the toilet?" Of course not, but pretty much everywhere else. She's coming back tomorrow, and the boys are finally afebrile and looking normal.
On a proud note, this is what happens if you try to take the puck wide on my daughter.......

Fresh caught ocean salmon is a treat. But brussels sprouts? Nobody really eats those voluntarily, do they? I mean nobody over the age of five.

 

[northmanlogging]

Um... they aren't too bad if you broil them and put enough butter and salt on em...

Used to hate em. But then the Wifey learnt to cook and stuff... now I'm fat...

Of course you love salmon, it's those grizzly bear genes. I like my salmon cooked or smoked. I have never been able to stand in a river and catch them out of the air.

Here is a video of Northy and the family.
