Flex testing the shortbus. Rear has 13" travel shocks, bottoms them out in both directions. Front has 11" travel shocks, doesn't quite fully extend, and hit the compression side too early. The front shocks are the right length, they're just mounted too low on the frame.

Wink It looks like someone has been eating way too many bananas.

"Climate change is no longer science. It's politics... Climate change is also about power. Power to control.... It's about who gets to decide: how much energy we will have... where that energy will come from... what it will cost... It's about simulations, scenarios and monsters conjured up by computer models that should never be used to chart government policy -- especially on matters that will profoundly affect our livelihoods, living standards, life spans and dreams of a better future.

"So hold onto your wallets, and hope you can hold onto your homes, cars and jobs. You're about to be put on a wild political roller coaster."

I've got an idea. Nose the driver's side of the Short Bus up to the same car. Hit the end of the bumper just below the car's A-piller. That oughta' push it back far enough to finish it up with a floor jack. Jack the bumper from the very end. Let it twist beyond straight if it will cooperate. If it won't go, jump up and down on the middle of the bumper. I have straightened a couple of Chevy van bumpers that way and yours are nearly identical.
Or not. Big Grin



It's a fine line between clever and stupid.

Speaking of chevy vans, I need the RH (pass side) manual window regulator out of that one in the background. Shipping would kill me though, wouldn't it?

Don't let the red "dirt" fool you. Thats volcanic ash and cinders. We use it for non paved roads here because it holds up to the rain much better than normal dirt does (and theres a lot more cinder here than real dirt).
