pre loading them is when you get them installed anthony. its when people don't fully tighten the upper arm until the car is on the ground. some people like to preload them or some just wait for it to just settle!! just give it some time

Mike came up with a good idea. He would like to have a meet just before the end of the year.

Well we have a little delima here - Gary's only night off is Thurseday, Anthony has to work late, I have relitaves coming to town and Gill needs an answer quickly.

At the expense of making some unhappy I will now call for a Meet on Thursday December 27th, 7pm at In & Out hamburgers at the Sahara location. If it is raining or threating rain, we will call off the meet.
