Bronco problem
I'm having a bit of an issue with fine tuning my fullsize suspension and need a hand in determining some slop i have.
The steering has always been a bit vague however there is something that is worn out or just a bit off it seems. Its tough to do allot of the trouble shooting myself as checking ball joints and steering components really requires two people and a level suface - I have neither right now. Would someone be willing to donate their time and allow me to come over to do a bit of diagnosing after the breakfast tomorrow? Probably require a jack and two stands, which I can bring if need be.. dont want to wrench on it or anything just nail down the culprit so I can fix it.
Would be more than willing to buy lunch or a couple of your favorite canned beverages, but just two ;)

Chris if you wanted to drive up here you would be more than welcome to borrow my stuff but it's on the opposite side of town.

Re: Bronco problem
Probably won't be at the breakfast. I am trying to get the garage picked through so I can put the Mustang in and remove the headers and install the stock exhaust on it. Damn emission crap. I'll pm you my cell # as I don't think it's in the member list for directions. Located up off 136th and I25, couple miles west.

Re: Bronco problem
Not a problem Chris. I figured that Kinder was closer so that's an easy choice.
