I have used them in 4 builds and they are decent lowers.
A decent price for a good lower.
As they say,: “buy ’em cheap and stack it deep”
2020 elections are coming sooner than you think.
ETA: Sold out!
I live in the country. I own land that harbors HUNDREDS of trees, and acres of grass…..all those acres of green leaf sequester carbon…..
I heat my home with wood (at least about 85% of my heat comes from wood….I do have a gas furnace for those lazy days)….all the rest is “Renewable” energy….
I live in a place where my commute, such as it is, is fairly short.
My “Carbon Footprint” approaches zero….in fact, it is quite possibly in some months, a negative number….
She lives in a city, flies thousands of miles monthly, and is shepherd to zero plants. I would wager her “carbon footprint” is nearly 100 times as high as mine.
Yet she (with absolutely no education or qualifications, mind you (Or even, possibly, the IQ to comprehend that which she would lecture me)) believes that she is qualified to lecture me on “Protecting the Environment”…..
Odd, innit, how these people want others to change their lives and lifestyles, but yet live high carbon lifestyles themselves…..
It isn’t a holiday in most other parts of Mexico besides the State of Puebla.
It wasn’t anything in the US until some bar owners promoted it in the LA basin where there were a lot of Mexican workers to have some celebration to sell more beer in the US.
Most people aren’t even sure where Puebla is, or really care.
More white people party on 5 May than Mexicans.
But hey, Viva Mexico!
And someone commented and pointed to a gear set that was available at, believe it or not, JCWhitney.
and, while that ISN’T the correct gear, I called the listed manufacturer, who didn’t have the right gear, but suggested a third party, who pointed me to a fourth, who gave me the number of a FIFTH party, who ACTUALLY HAD THE GEAR.
It’ll be here Monday or Tuesday.
Many thanks to commenter “Knucklehead” for the help.
Looks like somewhat less than a half inch. Which is, considering the previous rainfall this week, still significant, but not nearly as bad.
We are still being warned about “Flash Floods” on relatively flat land though.
I expect a new Gun Control initiative to happen soon.
There is an odd pattern to these hppenings.
Today some asshole group would object to the stereotypical characterization of 1950’s Italian-American culture in New England and the company would pull the ad and apologize on facebook and make a donation to the Gay Italian Rights Brigade in expiation of the sin of offending the 12 people who screamed the loudest and bring out an organic Gluten Free version of the product to satisfy the SJW protestors.
Back then, it was just good marketing.
Now I know why it skips time. I may be screwed here. Terribly worn distributor gears.
Somewhere, I gotta find a drive gear for the distributor…not the driven gear at the end of the distributor shaft, but the one that is attached onto the end of the cam that drives the distributor shaft gear.
I’m thinking NAPA and AutoZone aren’t gonna have a listing.
Anyone got any suggestions where I can find a distributor gear set for a 1927 Chrysler model 50//model 58? (that is the 4 cylinder, not the straight 6 or the 8.
In the last 72 hours.
and another 2.5 to 3 inches in the NEXT 24 hours.
Pretty much things are full right now. The ditches are full, the ground is saturated and there just isn’t much more room for all that additional rain.
The news and the weather forecasters, however, keep talking about “Flash Floods”.
Which we don’t get here. Not enough elevation to create a flash flood.
Flood? Yeah, gonna have a fair bit of that. But they will happen over hours, not seconds or minutes. Not ‘Flash” flooding.
These folks have never seen a “flash flood”: “a sudden and destructive rush of water down a narrow gully or over a sloping surface, caused by heavy rainfall.”
Doesn’t happen here. As I said, not enough elevation. Down south, nearer St Louis, or southern Indiana or Kentucky where they have significant elevation it can happen, but here, there it’s too flat for Flash Floods.
But I guess they have to dramatize everything to keep viewers interested.
