    I'd like to go to the 38th parallel. ...Not on the Korean peninsula, mind you. In the island of Sicily.

      @mrmattimation I regret not seeing more of Italy altogether when I lived there.

        @awlditzy I wanna spend a few years in Europe at some point in my life, but I know I'd never be able to afford it.

          @mrmattimation Yes it is really expensive. I was shocked coming out of Russia to see how much the essentials cost in Sardinia. Doesn't fare any better in the mainland either what I remember.

                  @rarity I had a Ford counterpart in the shop today for an oil change also. That's one of the easier ones but at either rate, way to go! Now get to those balljoints

                              @rarity They suck just to let you know. You'll need a balljoint press amongst other things.

                                  @rarity If you get a balljoint press sure, it'll take a good while. Because of how much steps there are to take the balljoints out of the knuckle... you know what, do you have a floor jack where you can have a wheel off the ground?

                                      @rarity Lift as close to the wheel as you can, get it off the ground, grab the top of the wheel and shake back and forth. Then grab the top and bottom of it and shake. If you can do the former and it moves, but not the latter, balljoints are loose and you might as well replace both simultaneously.

                                          @rarity Just one of those things to look out for on those models. Ford trucks weren't designed the best when it came to loaded suspension and the loaded joints wear out quicker as it is.
