Question for you guys. Do you think it would be wise to order replacement ball joint cups just in case I shred one when swapping my knuckles? Or being that they are only a couple months old I shouldn't have to worry about it. I'll be using a ball joint separator if that makes any difference.

It wouldn't cost much at all to build that. I have a sheet at home with general steel prices. I can tell you later this evening what material cost would be.

Someone needs to come with me and shirey tomorrow, so when we get stuck, you can pull us out. I don't like offroading alone.

That is the thing on Glocks you either hate it or luv it. I have had a G19 since the early 90's love it. Also got a G32C sweet piece. For work we carry the M11 Sig took me a bit to get used to the decocker.
I still have a luv for the wheel guns also. But nothing like a Shotgun for the pure shock value of pumping in a round in the chamber to get someones attention..

In an ideally configured suspension, you don't need a stabilizer. It's a comfort thing. Yours is likely warn out due to age and use, and it wouldn't hurt to replace it, but it's far from necessary.

Can anyone help me out? I need to get an engine hoist from Severna park to mt rainer tomorrow evening.

It wont fit in the jeep when there are two engine stands, a tire, full 4.0 motor and various tools.

You don't think you'd notice any difference if you replaced it with new?
