Need Rear Shock info

[Naumoff]

What is the Part # for the stock jag shocks?

What is the part # and size for the adjustable Proline shocks?

We are trying to make a decision on replacement shocks for a Unique Cobra in my area.
The stock shocks are allowing the car to sag really bad now.

Thanks

[Naumoff]

I was going to call Maurice but thought I would try here first for such a simple question if anyone had changed there rear shocks recently.

tony, i have 4 jag rears. 0 miles. if there for clay`s car he can have them. i owe him a favor for checking out my wife`s 67 camaro i bought in annapolis last year. leave me a pm with the address he wants them shipped to. later, brian.

Hi Brian (and greetings all),

Sorry, I've been away for awhile, but lately, I am incredibly busy with work-related issues. Yes, they are for my car.

Brian, I would love to try your new Jag shocks. The same type on my car have been on this car since 98, and are starting to sag a bit, but I've been pleased with the set-up and ride-height, previously.

Obviously, I insist on compensating you something. Checking out that Camaro was no big deal.

I'll PM you with the address, and we'll settle shipping and other comp. Thanks in advance.:cool:

[brfutbrian]

clay, other than the shipping, i dont want anything for the shocks. id rather give them away to a bud, than sell`em for what would be the chump change sum id get on ebay to some last second scalper. (wait a minute i do that all the time on ebay). enjoy. later, brian.

[Naumoff]

Thanks Brian. That is really cool of you. :cool:

[bittentoo]

Clay, good to see you here. I hope all is well as we all miss you.

I would love for you to come to Homecoming and hang with all of us, and Brian could bring them down with him!

Kelly,

I would love nothing more than to join everyone at Homecoming, but my new job is a complete killer, time-wise. I'm enjoying it, but it does put a damper on trips like this.

*****************1,000 Marbles************************

Not a new story but a good one!!!!!


A few weeks ago, I was shuffling to the kitchen with a steaming cup of coffee in one hand and the morning paper in the other. What began as a typical Saturday morning, turned into one of those lessons that life seems to hand you from time to time. Let me tell you about it...

I turned up the radio and started channel surfing, I came across an older sounding chap, with a tremendous signal and a golden voice. He was telling whoever he was talking with something about "a thousand marbles".

I was intrigued and stopped to listen to what he had to say. "Well, Tom, it sure sounds like you're busy with your job. I'm sure they pay you well but it's a shame you have to be away from home and your family so much. Hard to believe a young fellow should have to work sixty or seventy hours a week to make ends meet. Too bad you missed your daughter's dance recital."

He continued, "Let me tell you something Tom, something that has helped me keep a good perspective on my own priorities." And that's when he began to explain his theory of a "thousand marbles."

"You see, I sat down one day and did a little arithmetic. The average person lives about seventy-five years. I know, some live more and some live less, but on average, folks live about seventy-five years." "Now then, I multiplied 75 times 52 and I came up with 3900 which is the number of Saturdays that the average person has in their entire lifetime.

Now stick with me Tom, I'm getting to the important part."

"It took me until I was fifty-five years old to think about all this in any detail", he went on, "and by that time I had lived through over twenty-eight hundred Saturdays. I got to thinking that if I lived to be seventy-five, I only had about a thousand of them left to enjoy."

"So I went to a toy store and bought every single marble they had. I ended up having to visit three toy stores to round-up 1000 marbles. I took them home and put them inside of a large, clear plastic container right here in the shack next to my gear. Every Saturday since then, I have taken one marble out and thrown it away."

"I found that by watching the marbles diminish, I focused more on the really important things in life. There is nothing like watching your time here on this earth run out to help get your priorities straight."

"Now let me tell you one last thing before I sign-off with you and take my lovely wife out for breakfast. This morning, I took the very last marble out of the container. I figure if I make it until next Saturday then I have been given a little extra time. And the one thing we can all use is a little more time."

I went upstairs and woke my wife up with a kiss. "C'mon honey, I'm taking you and the kids to breakfast."

"What brought this on?" she asked with a smile.

"Oh, nothing special, it's just been a long time since we spent a Saturday together with the kids. Hey, can we stop at a toy store while we're out? I need to buy some marbles."

Come on Clay......I always thought you had lost your marbles

[eliminator]

Good one Brent, very fitting, life is all about choices!!

And I choose to go to Homecoming.

[clayfoushee]

Thanks for the advice, Brent. I love my job.:) I went through a period where I had way too much time on my hands, and I didn't care for that either.

Hope all is well with you and those beautiful little ones. Mine's all grown up and away at college.

[bittentoo]

Brent, that is really good.




Lost my marbles a long time ago!

[Slither]

Nice nice.

It took a really bad storm to shake the marbles loose down here, but ever since then things have been different (not always good, but getting better). As we get back on level ground, we plan a different tack, one that includes Saturdays and a lot of other days, too:D! Not sure how it's going to play out, but we're workin' on it.

It is a shame that it often takes a catastrophic event to wake us up to what is really important in life... but at least it happens sometimes... sometimes before it is too late;).

Been looking forward to Homecoming since Saturday night of last year's event:D! It was fab! Can't wait to see y'all.
