Re: lowering a 41 ford

Re: How much?
Thanks for confirming what I was thinking. I agree with you and just for fun, I am going to buy one of those cheap ($2-3.00) testers like I remember in the 1950's. ;)

Re: Concrete Floor protector
I've always liked this idea, but to frugal (cheap) to do it. I'm old as dirt and don't do much wrenching anymore. :(

Re: Grounding Issue
