heck yeah!

ok, so we're starting to get off the rails now. I think most everyone has said their piece so I'm going to lock it. the shot is safe, the shot is effective. no good reason not to get it. MJeff, be sure to keep us posted on how you're doing.

warms my heart to see a nice truck preserved

more quick edutainment vids. https://www.youtube.com/c/halfasinteresting/videos

60* 90* was the 4.3L

Happens to the best of us

SciShow does a decent job of breaking it down. though this vid might be more in depth than you're looking for right now, but it'll answer a bunch of questions (and likely bring forth more questions. lol. biology is complicated.)

a southerner's definition of "too far gone" tends to differ wildly to a northerner's definition of "too far gone". keep me in the loop.

certain 90s Explorers came with mono leafs. not sure how helpful that info is. the length measurements are just a bit off from MJs though.

same. those brands seem to get praise. we're sure that there's nothing weird about this front diff, yes? I ask because I know the Liberty dana 30a front diff is... different... and won't accept regular dana 30 gears.

yeah, I would start with inspecting that switch and its plug.

production started in july 1985. you can download and organize the chart we've accumulated in here:

that's going to freak out some people that saw it with the last wrap and now are thinking there's a second one running around.

looks great in white too. did you pull the wrap to make a change? or is unwrapping a car something that needs to be done regularly for some other reason?

you're going to get spoiled with that deicer

because they don't do crap in an actual double blind study.

that's 99.7% are not dying. pleeease stop sharing that stat as if 99.7% of all people will be perfectly fine in a week. death is but one of the ways this illness will mess you up. it's looking like 10-20% that got it are now under the long covid umbrella. I'm not dead. but my life was stolen 20 years now after a spat with mono that caused a similar hiccup in my immune system. there are hundreds of thousands of people in this country staring at that path. it suuuucks. stole my brain and stole my life. do not skip over those people as if they are going to be "fine". I imagine they would disagree. agreed. we'd be in a whole different world if the last administration had handled it differently. and the current administration is trying to catch up and failing miserably. but I do feel a bit bad for them. the misinformation is rampant and hard to reverse.

you can absolutely disagree but the law is the law. those laws give you your rights. and those laws give the government their rights. the balance is constantly fluctuating, but there's a LOT of precedence for this one. but we shall see. as always, we gotta wait for the courts to decide.

as americans, who are constantly bombard with "we're free so you can't tell us what to do" motto, it can be hard to accept that government has the right to dictate safety, especially in the workplace. hell, there's plenty of precedent for mandating vaccines to the general populace, regardless of work status. but I'm curious as to how the Court will see the current proposal as written.

there's simply no way to know how long the antibodies last in the human body until we try and test and measure and see. and this is what's happening. it sucks, but so do viruses. biology is complicated and viruses are complicated and winning the war is complicated. but there are scientists working on better treatments so it's not like we're stuck forever with only what we have now.

hopefully it stays mild so you can enjoy your time off and do all you can to not spread it to anyone else.

they started production on July 1st 1985. I've edited out the common reused codes for ya.
