I appreciate everyone including you Bob, I was able to limp the truck 4 miles at 6:30 AM this morning the 4.1 miles to NAPA and the 2 Stabilizer Links were in my hand in 5 mins after he unlocked the door. 3 guys including the owner all at once like they were singing all in tune said The Muffler Shop and Auto Repair which was right up the street they opened at 8:00. And they had me and 8 other locals waiting and still worked me in at 9:00, but it was not just 2 links R&R and checking front brakes for damages.

Those needed to be replaced too as 1 had zero bushings left. But as soon as the lift came off the ground we both knew the passenger front wheel bearing was history too. It welded the race to the spindle and that whole corner had damages (Steering knuckle/spindle, rotor, you name it. And NAPA had all the parts in stock except the Steering nuckle/spindle...it will be here in the AM.

I am at Super 8
