You come out of the hardware store and see a large, fresh puddle of oil and crawl around underneath in your good clothes to see where it came from. And find out later that evening it wasn’t yours
Ok - it got above 70 today. That can only mean 90+days are soon to follow. IS IT FALL YET???

When you drive your wife’s car to the grocery store, get out and see a large fresh oil spot in the next space - and just for a second wonder if that came out of the CJ......

When you pull into the parking garage at work, hear something metallic hit the ground, and see in the mirror some dude pointing at the ground behind you. When you get there he says “I think it’s yours....”

When you notice a clunking noise when turning right and hitting pot holes that’s solid enough to warrant a looksee, and you check the leaf springs, engine and Transmission mounts, exhaust hangers, bumper bolts, doors, shackles, u-bolts on the axles, check for rear axle end play, rear lift gate, roll bar bolts, seat bolts, battery hold downs.... even made sure the AR hadn’t dumped a mag........ and it was these - took em off and all was quiet!!
