Is this the first real off topic post on local paddler?
Over the past 4 days Luke, Dave Nugent (of Potomac Outdoors fame), myself, their roomate Ed, and Rob put a new suspension lift on my Bronco. It is now sitting up 4" higher. During that time we spent a day and a half trying to take off one little piece called the Pitman arm. After some grinding, banging, heating, prying, and 4 pullers later we finally got it off. Luke actually shot some footage of it. I would like to send a huge thank you to the guys I mentioned, I couldn't have done it without you. Hopefully my frontend won't fall off going 70 down 495.

Hey, get Luke to throw a link up to that pittman arm video on this thread so we can check it out. I would love to get a look at the moment when man finally conquered machine.

What is the level supposed to do for this weekend, I hope it gets out of the mid 4s.

The forcast graph for the Little Falls Gauge isn't that promising...check it out here: Forcast Graph (http://ahps.erh.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/ahps.cgi?lwx&brkm2)
