Eggs should be cooked as little as possible to get the full nutritional value. Scrambled is the worst way to eat eggs for example, soft boiled or poached is best. If fried cook them in generous amount of grass fed butter like Kerry Gold and leave the yolks runny. The olive oil spray is probably...

Originally Posted By: researcher Originally Posted By: Rock_Hudstone Yeah, I just found about Sachs Struts, supposedly an OEM supplier to Chrysler. Pricey however and no reviews to be found. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Suspension-Stru...738.m2548.l4275 Really disappointed with the Moog struts...

Originally Posted By: Eric Smith Did you try tightening the nut on the shaft? That's a well known issue with Monroe's, most likely Moog's are made similar. Had to do that on the Focus and no issues in over 10k. Yes, checked that, they were tight.

Originally Posted By: Picky1 Instead of borrowing friends and relatives chainsaws I was thinking of picking up a small saw for limbing and cleanup around the yard. Saw the other day on the HD website that they have reconditioned saws starting at $69.97 Any feedback on Ryobi chainsaws? I...

Originally Posted By: researcher hey good to hear you found something better! I know I've been reading this thread and I have to add that the moog quickstruts I had were junk too! Now the moog springs I have are working fine (luckily), along with sachs shocks. So far, so good. Yeah, I just...

The 3.1L is probably the easiest water pump in the world to replace, don't worry about too much, get whatever pump is most convenient. Aftermarket parts these days are low quality across the board. Cardone made good pumps in the past but AAP, Autozone, etc, dumped them for their junky Chinese...

I was thinking perhaps going with the Monroe Reflex QS but with a OEM Mopar strut mount and bearing, as the old coil springs have a lot of miles on them.

Originally Posted By: slacktide_bitog [Monroe, KYB, or Gabriel quick struts are all good Plus, the KYB is only about $10 more than Monroe I was under the impression KYB shocks are on the stiff side, aka- "Kill Your Back".

Originally Posted By: Rock_Hudstone I could probably live with the noise but the ride quality is lousy as well, you feel every bump in the road. Total junk, can't wait to get them out. Update: Pulled the Moog struts out, put the old OEM struts back in and all the odd noises stopped, (front...

Originally Posted By: ZZman Are you sure the sway Bar links are tight or O.k? Yeah, links, bushings, everything else is tight. the noises began after installing the new struts. Speaking of which, noises are many: low clunks sometimes in turns, creaks and clicking from the strut mount area...

Originally Posted By: LeakySeals I had same thing installing some Arnotts w/out using a torque wrench. Went back over bolts with correct torque, bump rattles disappeared, never came back. I'm going to check the strut nuts sometime this weekend, all the other bolts were torqued properly. They...

Like the title says, Installed a set of Moog complete strut assemblies last week on a Dodge Grand Caravan, now it's lost the once smooth quiet ride for clunks and harsh ka-bang noises over moderate pot holes and creaking coming from the upper strut mount when turning. Especially bad when...
