Oh i do too. When the time does come for you, just remember that the "no sleep" stage is temporary whereas the "help daddy wash/wax car" stage lasts a loooooot longer

I WISH! That's how my little brother & I were raised; wash & wax EVERY Saturday from spring through fall. For my kids, it's, "Let's-go-watch-DADDY-wash-&-wax-the-trucks-&-maybe-he'll-squirt-us-with-the-hose-while-we-run-around-&-scream-like-lunatics."

Jeep Commander, Dodge Caravan, & Dodge Ramcharger: I get to wash & wax 'em all solo...

Got some parts in today. Now i just have to wait (im)patiently for my front OME springs/struts. Then no more sagging!!

They just slip right in there and stay or is there a trick?

They wedge in there. I through a dab of RTV on them to help hold them in place over time.

Probably didn't wedge them all the way in.

Several times actually and the RTV flattened from the bead. Even left them overnight to set.

It's just MY rig. The things that go wrong on mine don't happen to anyone else. LOL

I had the same issue at first, then I tighten the strut center bolt on top & it helped, don't ask why it just did.

..... was talking to the wife about possibly doing the superlift this spring/summer (if the stars align with funds/tax return/etc.. and my bday/fathers gift).

Going to be swapping out my OME HD setup this winter for the 5100 struts and cut OME MD springs as a "stage one" lift. Then when I put the SL on i'll adjust the 5100's to get the lift i want

Do it... DO IT!!!!

(I'll be happy to help.)
