Well, what did everyone do for Fathers day?

My wife made me breakfast in bed :) Then we went to church, had an excellent time there and came home for some juicy tenderloin!

Talked with my daughter for a bit on the phone and then took a really nice mid day nap! Unfortunately, I woke up to find an empty house as my wife let me sleep while she went to church.

So, I figured I'd replace the second leaf spring in her Jeep. Been meaning to get to that for several weeks now, and it should only take about an hour and a half. Saturday I spent a good portion of the day cleaning out the garage and sorting stuff, so I was in the mood for some tinkering anyway.

Well, things didn't work out the way I planned... not even close. I really, really hate michigan rust. The front bolt would not come out, so I thought that the nut welded inside the frame pocket broke loose and was spinning, so I cut a hole in the pocket, but the nut was intact. So I ended up cutting the spring out with a cutting wheel and at 11 pm, the spring was finally out! At 11:30 I realized, after struggling to put the new spring in to no avail and I have not gotten that mad from working on cars in a long, long time, that the threads on the nut were stripped and of course, I didn't have a tap big enough to fix it. Needless to say, my wife wasn't going to work on Monday.

I did get my tap yesterday and it took about 40 minutes to tap the nut, weld a patch over the hole in the pocket I cut, undercoat it and install the spring. Woot woot! I love it when I win!

In all, I had a pretty good Fathers day and I'm thankful I have such a wonderful wife.
