    Now we're just waiting on the new serviceable ball joint mevotech control arms and I should have ordered these from the beginning. Even the tie rod end could hold enough grease so we may have to replace those also. Turns out we must have hit some back bumps in Canada which forced out the grease.

    The 2 WIX air filters just arrived and can't wait to get this installed. These filters make a big difference in the van's performance as they are thinner designed as compared to other filters. Sadly, I'm not willing to buy another K&N filter as the first one contaminated the mass air sensor. K&N...

    last night the wife and I talked about our trip through Canada. We both were not impressed with Canada.. Bad roads, bad hotels and bad washrooms as they call it.. The only good thing about Canada, was the Canadian rockies. So avoid driving through all of Canada just to get to the rockies..

    Although many of the roads into Canada were bad.. the worst part about our trip.. the hotels and rest stop bathrooms (or washrooms as the locals can it) were nasty.. it wasn't a very good time for travel as nearly every road we dover in US and Can was being worked on.. some Canadian detours lead...
