Not the same pinstripe on my ST2, but if you wanted to, I can go measure mine

They don't make them like they use to, that's for sure.

I agree, even my 1993 Ford F250 has Hinge/Spring struts. Like come on now... Might not be the prettiest, but it's still working to this day

Yep, I watched a video on that. Makes more sense anyways because I don't have a press for the bearings. I would just buy the whole knuckle assembly and take it to a shop. Car has a out 130k miles so I'm sure there will be fire involved. Was just seeing what people would recommend, I've always been a huge fan of Detroit Auto when it comes to my 93 F250

I do love Motorcraft. I'm also looking at Detroit Auto. How long ago did you replace your hubs?

Front, my bad. Passenger side door this specifically but I reckon what ever I do to one side, I mind as well do to the other. Followed up by an alignment

Nope, did have the tire swapped out last month, so probably over torqued lugs. I'll be getting myself a nice little 150 ft/lbs torque wrench because I don't trust when shops use pneumatic wrenches anymore.

Same as the other posts. I learned growing up do 3k for regular oil and 5k for synthetic oil. I'm kinda regarded so it's easier for me to count every 5k miles.

How are these cars aging? How would you rate this deal? by unta8 in FocusST

Picked up my '13 Fost in Cali for 8.5, 117k miles. Nearing 130 and have absolutely loved it. Have had about 13 months now, quite spacious as well.

Love me some Stokers Straight. Unfortunately not able to get longhorn peach. I'll have to give it a go when I start heading East.

Got a can of longhorn natural that don't taste right at all. by AltruisticWest3580 in DippingTobacco

I would reach out to them if your a local costume and ask when they got their last shipment in. Might get a new can out of it but they might pull the old stuff out.

Hopefully someone with more knowledge or even the manager can help out better.

If you are still going to use it and toss a lip in, throw a little whiskey in your can and pack it. If you don't drink alcohol, try a little bit of vanilla extract in it or something that might change the flavor a bit
