Growing up doesn't have to suck

That's what rentals are for.

Speaking of which I just learned of this rental option called Turo.

I heard from a source in Texas that Buc-ees is a great place to get jerky, is that true?

I'd say so. They have a few walls and racks of it with a nice assortment of flavors. I saw the standards and a few new ones that I didn't remember from last time. Even had Ghost Pepper. I got Mesquite Peppered and Bohemian Garlic.

I will report to her.

Show us your wheel stand thingy there. Is that home made?

I'll have to work on finding pics. I'm currently about 800 miles from it and on a different laptop.

Definitely homemade! Really quick and dirty. It's a used hub a TYF bro sent me with a piece of 2" square tubing welded to the back and braced with scrap pieces of 1" punched angle. All stick-welded really quick-like. It was made to insert into my hitch to spin wheels to test for bends before I bought them. A while back, another bro sent me the factory "hitch" from his PPV. I C-clamped it vertically to the arms of my lift (adjustable working height, yo) and slid the hub/tubing thing into it.

That’s what I figured just confirming.

It's a great source for jerky, I can attest to that!

My favorite jerky came from Texas, https://www.praseks.com/

Very much true.

 

[OR VietVet]

Very much true.

Gonna have to order some I guess. I love jerky. I used to get nothing but Robertson's but always open to trying something else. My girl's daughter lives in Texas and swears by Buc-ees.

Sway bars were delivered Monday. I knew they'd be heavy and was worried about the box being damaged and losing some bushings or something. They were individually sealed in a really heavy duty plastic bag, then both together in a third bag:




Part numbers in case anyone is interested:

Complete front and rear kit is #REV013.0030
Front bar and bushings is #REV003.0118
Front bushings is #3GFS.0035
Rear bar and bushings is #REV011.0070
Rear bushings is #3GRS.0024








So red:




I don't want 'em red. I'll scuff and paint 'em with the same gloss black acrylic spray enamel I used on my wheels. I considered silver or electric blue since I have those paints as well. But, I'm not flashy and I have other plans for the silver and blue paints.
