mac davis wrote the wife got back from a shopping trip yesterday with a very wet passenger side carpet.. the trip was several hours with the ac on... in my last couple of trucks it was always a little tube that had come off a nipple probably from a passengers foot... i cant find anything like that here or any one spot that the water seems to have come from any suggestions thanks mac please remove splinters before emailing when this happened to my 2002 dodge dakota lemon the entire dash on the passenger side had to be removed and the tube reinstalled. jam .

nicholas witchell - 10/april/1999 certainty level 100% this clip is of nicholas witchell reading the bbc2 evening at 7pm on saturday 10 april 1999. you have to understand that the psychopaths of the security service consider their abuse of me to be so funny; and central to their persecution of me is their inducement of their bought journalists like the bbcs nicholas witchell to laugh at me on television. so in this clip we see witchell smirking and grinning while he reads the . only part of the broadcast is shown in the clip; preceding it witchells upper lip quivers in mirth for several minutes until his entire mouth twists into the uncontrollable smile shown in this clip through the excuse of a weak non-joke about sports fixtures. 1556 -- posted via demon.com - premium uncensored group service -------http//www.demon.com------ unlimited access anonymous accounts uncensored broadband access.

are you up to 3 wheels on the back yet to get all that power to the ground or are you just counting on the new shocks to help keep her planted two is still pretty good for now. it actually takes quite a bit to bust the duallies loose though a 15psi launch does light them up nicely - i tend not to do that too much as it scares the crap out of everyone around myself included. that same launch in 4wd well... thats a good way to induce a case of whiplash and shot-put a u-joint a good 75-80 yards. speaking of which.... im still on factory u-joints. hmmmm.... weekend project. . 222 338471 nd2dnyhbaqymslpbnz2dnuvzvihnz2d@giga.com laszlo wrote ok...turns out the new battery i installed had an internal cell that was shorting out. this makes the second optima battery i had that crapped out on me. im thinking the optimas are not worth the investment. the battery i got from the dealer cost much less $90 or so than the optima has a higher rc and higher cca if i recall. bottom line...dont waste your money on the optima batteries...imo. -- ------------------------------------------ laszlo almasi ----cool toys formerly carolina watercraft works ----mack daddy trailers ----ice angels ive been using interstate workaholic batteries for some years now... zero issues in several vehicles and other applications. i keep trickle chargers on the lesser-used batteries. bryan .

bilsteins are expensive. depends... i put a set of 5100s on my ram a few months ago with a dramatic improvement in handling and general road feel. i paid $79 each. rancho rs5000s go for about $53 each. so about $100 more for the bilstiens. yes they were more expensive but not terribly so. i acknowledge that i would have gotten very similar results from a set of rs5000s.... but what the heck. .
