And yes the ford link is to a Germain Ford in Columbus, Ohio with a Raptor with your name on it.





Sounds like a union job I can find plenty well paid "shovel leaners" down here.

Don't forget the union lead person, supervisor, and manager. Oh and probably an engineer too.

Just came in from cleaning up the last of this storm. Okay I guess we are ready for the next one. Next year there is going to be a tractor mounted snowblower in my arsenal. I'm feeling like global warming is over.

That's a lot of snow Scott! Sure looks like you could use a few snow fences to keep the drifts down.

I just ordered my next round of mods, Prothane motor mounts from Summit and an adjustable upper control arm from J+M to go with the solid lowers I already have. Both will ship tomorrow, so hopefully next weekend I'll be able to do the installs.

Cool Justin. I have never replaced one but they say that upper is a b!tch. The snow is melting some now...slowly but it's melting. Guess I won't have to buy that Raptor this week.

The install on the upper control arm isn't that bad, at least I didn't think that it was. The hard part was adjusting it once it's installed....... that was a complete, total 100% PITA.

I'm not lowered yet, so I'll be setting it to the same length as the stock arm to start with. When I lower the car an inch, I might end up needing to adjust it then, I'll deal with it at that point.

no need for an adjustment from what I have seen after a one inch drop or so. Its nice if you have a 1/2 drive impact gun with a bigo compressor to push it. Set at stock length is a good call. It did suck to change my compressor is weak.

I'm impressed with how fast FedEx is compared with UPS, my motor mounts will be here today when I get home from work. The crontrol arm shipped today by UPS but won't be here until Monday though. At least on Saturday I will do the motor mount install.

Looks like the bids in that auction weren't for real (big surprise). He relisted it:
