Oops, my bad, I didn't clarify enough.

I was kind of considering the Buicks, Olds & Chevys all in the same camp, Dodge & Plymouth, etc. etc.....

I can't think of anybody who did the GM Ford Chrysler thing.

Toyota is guaranteed at least two drivers in the race due to provisionals/owner's points or something. Jarrett and I think Blaney are locked in for sure.

Didn't they change the past championship rules this year to a limit of 4? Jarrett will make the 500 but once he is out of the top 35 he could miss alot of races.

All we're talking about here is the 500. Not 5 races out......

One other thing to remember, even if Jarret uses four straight provisionals to start the year, making all four of those races goes a long way toward getting him into the top 35 by a good margin. There probably won't be more than 36 cars that run all four of those first races as many teams as there are fighting for those few open spots... All he needs to do those races is keep running and stay out of trouble and he'll almost for sure be in the top 35 when the new points start counting...

I have to agree with you on that. I do believe that Smoke has #3's manual in the glove box!! grin.gif That to me is talent, I also have to give Kyle a thumbs up for hanging on (not a fan of his by any means). I don't if there is many drivers out there that would be able to pull off the bump and run as Smoke did without completely spinning the other guy out. Some call it aggressive driving I call it RACING!! cool.gif

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
