How to ruin a really sharp 98 sport GT

From the looks of your Explorer it did the same thing as mine....on that last shot of the passenger side front tire, was that tire straight the times you took the pictures of the driver side front tire? My front end is the same way except reversed, the driver tire is straight while the other is crooked and I was just wondering if you thought maybe I had broken my tie rod also?

If you can steer and both wheels move, its not broke. Thats the part that moves the wheel back and forth. It may be bent, but on like Spas's, broke.

It's not broke but I do think it may be bent. One wheel looks turned and the other doesn't
 






If that's the case you will be going thru tires like they're going out of style.

Whatever it is insurance is covering it minus the $500 deductable! There is no way I can drive without that being fixed. The rear of the tire is rubbing the rear of the fender well right now and its not even inflated.
 






Damn, is everyone crashing their trucks? MO... I didnt know something happened to yours. I just thought you were talking about something that got bent from a minor bump or offroading or something.

In this case, I guess you wont be going thru many tires if you aren't driving it. :)
 






Aaaaannnnnddddd, I ain't goin' near Chris's comments with a 20' long pole!!! Baaaaaddddddd thoughts are running through the mind

Behave Draper, I know where you live :D ;)


Mo, I'm sorry to hear about your X!!!! What happened??

Just went to say hi to Blackjack and remote start him so the battery doesn't go dead....at least I didn't damage the exhaust, you can hear him across the street from the body shop ;)
 






Wow Lindsy that really bites. Hope that BlackJack is up and running soon :)
 






Start it again when someone is lying under it or looking under the hood...:D

My mind in the gutter???? Naaaaah, it's the foundation for the gutter :D
 






Damn. Sorry to hear that Lindsy.

Stupid Paragon curse strikes again!!
 






Stupid Paragon curse strikes again!!
More like curse of the Pa DOT.... :rolleyes:

SoBe, if you like what I think you like, Lizard should probably watch out! ;)

Silver, I'm just WAITING for one of the techs to pop the hood so I can get them with my remote start, heh heh

Day 4 and still no adjuster....Gonna go tomorrow and take off my hellas and sidemarkers as well as make a list of things that I noticed since I know my truck way better than anyone else ;)

You know you've been on this site too long when you've only had your rental for a day and you've already got a two page list of mods that you'd do to it if it were yours...

You are right on the money if you think my membername has to do with SoBe beverages. I've been drinking the stuff for a little over five years and I'm nuts about the stuff. I'm drinking one right now. You're right, I think Lizard should watch out...LOL :)
 






Damn, sorry to hear this. :( I didn't even get a chance to get up to Carlisle to see you and your truck (and all the others) either. Hopefully everything will work out for you.

Jeeeeezzz.... Ima have ta start fightin em off with a stick.... :D
 






Hey Lindsy, got any pics from the Paragon trip?



oh yeah, sucks about the truck.....
 






Wow Lindsy, glad to hear you're alright and I hope the insurance company will rebuild Blackjack instead of writing it off.
 






Finally heard from the adjuster today...work begins on Monday and is expected to cost between $3500-$5000, since we discovered little things like the inner fender and header panel pushing into the battery :eek: They think about 2-3 weeks before it looks something like it used to! I went and made up a list of little things that they might miss too, just cuz I'm a jerk like that :D

Matt, yeah I have pics, I'm getting them developed tomorrow and posting them tomorrow night in the June/July thread (had to wait til I got paid).

You're right, I think Lizard should watch out...LOL

LOL- only if you like 'em tall, dark and really weird;)

Hey, i have a question for you guys..since I'm trying to turn a bad sitch around to my advantage, I took an idea that CJ gave me and photoshopped it (ok, it's pretty bad, but you get the idea...just pretend that the bumper's a 98 and grey. Sorry to whoever this pic belonged to, I mean no disrespect by using it!)

What do you think about a color matched speed grill?
