  1. I'm not sure how long I drove without it, but I didn't notice until I pulled in to the parking lot at work. One of my co-workers pointed it out. Truck didn't seem too different, of course I'm still ironing some steering/suspension issues. So the truck isn't really driving great to begin with. lol.

  2. Dude's right. It's like my great grandpappy used to say " If its got tits or wheels....eventually, it's gonna give you trouble". :tonguefinger:

     

    Yep, thats just like: No matter how good she looks; someone, somewhere is tired of her isht.

  3. why would anybody want to mess with the 4-link rear and h233b? i could see it if you went to a d60, d70 or 14bolt... is that a d44 or 10 bolt in the rear? oh and nice use of lift blocks.

  4. Like I said, if they want anything unreasonable out of me, they better be ready to take me to court. I highly doubt most would honestly be ready to go that far, much less spend that kind of money on something like that.

     

    And if they were, I'd simply move my stuff the night before the court case and tell the judge "sorry, but I couldn't physically do it sooner because *whatever reason comes to mind insert here*"

     

    Be their word against mine, and as the problem's solved

     

    I guess if you're renting, and don't really care about everything that comes along with moving out in the middle of the night then go for it. But if you own the home, you're not just going to move out over night.

     

    To give you an example that pretty much strikes down your first statement about them not ready to go that far. Friend of mine owns a home, and last year received 2 letters from his HOA. First one was to replace the fence in his backyard, because it had been damaged by a storm and was getting old anyways. Second one was to paint a post on his front porch. I guess it had some mildew growing near the bottom from years of being rained on and such. To solve the first one he spent $3K on the fence. He has a huge back yard, and lives on the corner with no neighbors behind. So unfortunately he had to bare the burden of replacing the whole thing himself. To solve the second one he cleaned the pole real well, not going to say it looked brand new, but in my opinion I didn't see anything wrong with it.

     

    Well several months go by, and he receives a letter, I don't remember if it was from the courthouse or from the law firm representing his HOA. The letter states that he is being sued by his HOA for $1200 for not complying with their request about painting the pole. I'm not sure how exactly they justified $1200, guess it was lawer fees, and a bunch of other crap.

     

    As previously stated several times in this thread that not all HOAs are the same, but don't be quick to assume that they won't go that far. After all, that is what they do, that is what their whole thing is. If they didn't pursue things like this no one would take them seriously or abide by them.

     

    Don't get me wrong, I'm not justifying them. Personally I think its a fscking joke. Just thought I'd give you a little insight from this side of the country.

  5. What're they gonna do? Fine me? Good luck... unless they have US Law on their side, I won't listen to a word they say. If they try to bring US Law in, I have ways of making them out to be the bad guys *grins slightly* if there's one thing I'm good at, it's... persuading... people to see my point of view :) Got me out of a LOT of scraps, both in primary/secondary school AND with the local and state law around here.

     

    Did you read any of the previous stories? All depends on the HOA you have to deal with.

  6. "In that case I'm not going to fix the blinds, instead I'm going to leave them like that so every time you drive by my house you'll remember that I told you to go f*ck yourself."

  7. Slick, no offense, but I'd force an HoA to take me to court before I let them tell me what to do... and I'd make sure to make their lives miserable in the process.

     

    Somehow I've got a feeling an HOA is in a better position to make your life miserable.
