1 full bottle of simple green, spray it on, let sit 10 minutes, hose it off. The end. Works freakin great.

Sweet, I still got to get my front main seal fixed, and when I do it will be simple green time!!  :_order:

Changed out my drivers side arm tonight (I forgot how much I hate cone washers).
The Sky arms that my wife got me for Christmas are considerably shorter than Marlin's arms, hopefully that will help; 1. less leverage, 2. the arms bent up after the spring contacted the tie rod on full droop, shorter arms should put the tie rod further away from the spring at full droop.

MiniSimp

 :greengrin: Done for tonight.

less leverage=harder to turn= now you're gonna want hydro assist.

so much for the continuing of progress.
We'll see what it's like when I get home, might not be on the other side of the hill.

Didn't happen. :thumbdown: :shake:

MiniSimp

Got the passenger side arm swapped, I now have a broken LHT TRE to add to my list. Also, all 4 studs were loose, I re-tightened them to 25ftlbs.

Looking good there Mini.  :biggthumpup:   But I'm beginning to think that your son works on your truck more than you do.  :talkingn:  :clap2:  As long as it's getting done, though, right?   :cheese:

Pretty much, if he asks to do something I give him a shot and teach him the right way to do it, I'll never turn the kid down for wanting to try new things. :greengrin:

Be careful, Rocks For Brains was my little helper and one day while I was doing something to my truck he took every tool that would fit in any hole in my frame and stuck them in. I didn't notice this and when I went to test drive I ended up walking back home picking up tools as I went along.
