It has been around the 100* mark in Eastern Canada for the last week and around 85-90 all week in BC so that is pretty darn close if you ask me, hot enough for me to sleep all day and work on the toys at night when it is cooler.
Got to go to my first outdoor professional football game and tailgate party on Saturday though, my seat was 120* when I sat on it, black plastic in direct sunlight. curse_sign.gif burnt my arse.

ya im lucky. we got the Ga dome here and it stays a cool 72*f inside. but if you go the the UGA stadium (collage) you are going to be toasted when you leave
OK, OK!
Lemme start from the top. For anyone who doesn't know, I have a full Global West suspension. The front consists of Negative Roll front upper A-arms, B-body spindles, 12" 1LE rotors, 1/2 ton pickup calipers, 700# springs, a GW 1 1/8" anti sway bar & Gaz single adjustable shocks. I've run the GW Negative Roll front stuff before & noticed a little increase in bumpsteer over the stock suspension, which didn't have great bumpsteer traits to begin with. Others I know have thought the bumpsteer could use a little reduction, too. Anyway, I was talking with an acquaintance who told me he modded a stock centerlink to use race end link mounts that were adjustable with shims. I begged him to make me but he said he did not want to start making them for people. A few days later he told me he'd make me one, but only with the agreement that I wouldn't tell anyone who he was. So, I'm sorry to say, I must keep my promise. Don't ask for clues or hints about him. I don't budge on secrets. [-( :-$ :lol:
In any event, I honestly don't know where he got everything, but anyone that can weld well could probably duplcate the centerlink mod with similar parts from a good racing supplier. You need (2) tie rod end mount tabs, (2) tapered pin rod end mounts with height adjustment shims that match the tie rod mount tab holes, (2) tie rod adjuster sleeves, rod ends, rod end seals & the hardware.
