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

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.

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.

No way. For $800K they better hand deliver it and not stick it in the mail.

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