I see no threats or warnings when I go there and I am running spybot & zonealarm with the latest updates available. My guess is the threats are not associated with Bruces link. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,269 Bubba - Curmudgeon | | Bubba - Curmudgeon Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,269 |
The last set of 1/2 ton truck springs that I bought from Jim Carter are as good (and original-looking) as an the excellent set of springs that I bought 8-10 years ago from Eaton Detroit Springs (whose prices now are quite higher).

I liked the springs I got from St. Louis....however....
They wrap them in shrink wrap..
crap beat out of them by the "brown army" (UPS)
They spay their name on each one in yellow.
I had mine repainted and so far so good...
