OK, finished for the day, will look later. By difference in clearance I mean from shocker body to the air bag mount plate. Drv side maybe 25mm, passenger maybe 12mmQuote:

To work out your lift height, I suggest set your truck level (your nominal preferred ride ht) with air airbags and measure from under the top center of guard face down to the wheel rim bottom lip (bead lip) and compare this against the stock build height. I mention bottom lip, as it is easy to measure to that point instead of to hub center. If you get your hands on the guard to hub center measurement, just add the wheel lip dia divided that by 2 and this will be the ht measurement you would compare against yours (distance measured between under guard face to bottom lip).
To measure your rear axle/diff position (left / right of the vehicle neutral longitudinal axis). Drop a plumb line (string or straight edge) vertically down from say inside face of each chassis rail (@ same relative position for both chassis rails) and measure horizontal distance across from this line (each chassis rail) to adjacent wheel rim lip (for example). This would provide a horizontal linear measurement difference (if any) of the axle/diff housing, actual position, from left to right relative to vehicle center..
OK, thats a great description, will do that and see how much I am off. I already suspect the alignment is wrong because I had scratch/rub marks on the tailshaft from the recently upgraded belly tank. Simply have not got to the next thing on the list, which looks like this.Quote:

Right in the middle of a huge expanse of plaster sheeting. We are starting to prep the house for sale, and the more you look the more you find. Its amazing what you either elect to live with or simply don't see because it happens over time. The other end of this monster sheet has also torn away from the nails into the rafters and drooped down about 6" over a 3m length. Currently trying to engineer a way out of that one!
If its not the car, its the house.

After restocking here its off to elquestro then to Alice via the tanami track ,weather has been great since we left the cape.
Big toe on left foot has been throbbing for the last 3 months on and off, thought I had Gout, so went to Doctor, not gout, you have a broken toe that has not healed correctly so the bone is now agitating the nerves ever time it moves - great! I did it on last years snow trip by dropping a log on my toe. Nail just about grown out, but injury will remain for life, no fix. I am cursed it seems.
... dangerous stuff that snow.
Been in Snow twice in my life, got blistering head aches, short term memory loss and had all my money disappear both times... never been back
I moved from the high country in Victoria to WA in 1980 and followed my dreams - and warmer temps. PML.Quote:

And now putting base coat on and and couple of insect did a landing, should have left them, but no I had to try and get em off and stuffed the paint. Now to dry and rub back in tomorrow. Stuff
Ah yes Rossco my friend, there is so much to learn and especially in the art of the unknown regarding the process of selecting the right cushion for that special place in your home. It is a journey of constant joyous discovery, and options, yes, so many options, size, colour, tone, texture, smell, weight, shape, comfort to name a few of the tangible criteria. Enjoy the process, in fact embrace it, as once it starts, it never ends. I believe a container load of cushions from our place recently were transferred to the local salvo's, so I am hanging out to find what new current 'on trend' focus we will be following - so very EXCITING!!!!!!!!!!!!Quote:

However this was short lived and doubt set in . . "Hmm don't think these go together" . . and "they're not earthy enough". Bugger back on the long venture back in, this time deciding to stay out out the whole process only to offer support. . . Oh well lesson learnt . . .

NBNco. What a bunch of fcuking monkeys!
I was promised to be connected via HFC in January, then in June, now they say "October - December 2018" and have added "- Subject to change". So in a nutshell, they really don't know. Everyone else in my street has it. These morons could not organise a root in a brothel! So now I have to put up with a super slow ADSL that drops out every 5 minutes.
Now can I start on the monkeys I works with? These plebs make me wild!
Health funds... doubly so any of them that use overseas call centres... a pox on all their houses
Tried to get angry.....but them happy thoughts...dag nammit

Two f'n idiots on motorcycles, treating our road like a Grand Prix track, second time this week. If I hadn't taken the time to check out the tyres and lights on the car before my daughter left, she would've been pulling out onto the road as the d'heads roared past. F'k I hope they get caught before they kill someone!
More of an inconvenience than anything. Water expansion on freezing pic (25mm brass ball valve body housing split open). minus 8 Deg C on the veranda last night.
It happens, all irrigation control valves drained and open for this time of the year. This is domestic supply, have to now scratch up one from in the shed. Seen 50mm brass ball valves go (such high force).
This made me angry, gutless assholes like this should have their oxygen breathing privileges taken away.

Absolute gutless bastards. I hope they get 5 years, as they need to be made an example of.

Don't worry, there will be some 'extenuating circumstances' that come out about a badger sneering at him when he was 5 years old, and he has been angry ever since, so he just needs some understanding, maybe do 5 hrs in a Bunnings Sausage sizzle one saturday for the local boy scouts, then all will be forgotten and he will save the taxpayer the 200k/yr to house him in a facility he does not deserve to be in. Mind you, the poor guy who lost his teeth and potentially is mentally scarred, get nothing. Yep, good old Dan and his bullet proof solutions will come out winners.Quote:

Mandatory sentencing is the way to go in order to deter these kind of behavior. DUI defendants use the same excuse. "Sorry I hit and killed you. I just had too much to drink".
Campaign for mandatory sentencing for above kind of behavior. You will be noticing an immediate & magical drop of the number of such transgressions.
