    impossible.......it is scientifically proven impossible to pass out by drinking Busch LT. Now if the @Zeek man had been drinking a couple of Canadian beers, say Okeefes Extra Old Stock - his system not being used to actual alcohol, would shut down and he would pass out. :D

    I was stuck on the side of the freeway coming home from work. TWO (2)!! broken rear coil springs due to spirited driving in the BushTracker. Might have been age fatigue or too much weight but those springs said fug it! Complete collapse of the arse end of the 4x4. Knobby mud terrains scraping the fenderwells. :mad::D

    now you might find this funny.....i certainly did....in the back of the Tracker...i had not 1,not 2, not 3, BUT FOUR 4!) pairs of various rate / length coil springs, all pulled from the scrap yard . They have been sitting on the passenger floor rolling about and clanging for at least a year now.......:D

    3 of the pairs were massively oversized and did not fit...but the last pair did, sorta.....kinda had to use an angle grinder to take part of the lower end off so it would fit on the axle housing spring seats. But did i have 110V power and an angle grinder handy ? no. :(:p



    So, leave the rig, thumb it and get a ride close to home, hop the bus, get home , cut the coils down with the angle grinder, grab the 60 LB x 64" hilift jack extreme and thumb it back to the 4x4 (surprised i got a ride at all........but some stone cutter / brick layer dude in a truck gave me a lift)

    ......coil spring swap on the side of the freeway, both rear wheels off and stacked on the curb, literally a 15 minute job, even bought a new spring compressor that i did not need ($125 down the tubes...oh well) , the local freeway patrol kindly blocking anyone from ramming me. Buttoned everything up, thanked the Officer for his time and the safety block with his cruiser, jumped into the tracker and got er home before 1600 hours.

    :D:p:cool:

    edit: its getting a full lift kit , suspension upgrade soon....
