Re: Shop truck build

Alrighty...time to detail what I've been doing to my Annabelle...

I live in the hood on the eastside of Indianapolis (by choice) and the roads aint the greatest. Well, the shocks had given up the ghost and with the potholes my ride was bouncin like a hoopdee. After crawlin underneath and seein the arthritic state of my steering components, I realized it was time for some surgery.

Did a little research and decided to give a rebuild kit from performanceonline.com. Specifically this kit...
https://www.performanceonline.com/73...-kit-frk7387p/

When I got the kit, I laid out the components and did a direct comparison to MOOG, Duralast and Valuecrap. I was pleasantly surprised! Visually, they look very similar to Moog and Duralast ED - when buying Duralast, look for the words "Enhanced Design" on the box, these parts are made to Moog specs by Federal Mogul (which makes MOOG)...

The parts went together smoooth and actually fit like they were supposed to...Huh! Pics to come and I let you know how they ride - gonna be a bit before she hits the road...
