Good job, Jim!  I missed the extra tags.  

Good video, George & Nick.  But even better, Brutus appears to be smooth and powerful.  And quiet.  Well done!

Might be an optical illusion, but those shoes appear to be the same size...

I was going to say the same thing, it looks like there are two secondairy shoes on that backing plate. Again it could just be camera angle too.

I wouldn't say either one of you are wrong.

The primary lining ending before the dimple in the shoe surface seems to be the giveaway.

George, I don't think you need to use the embed button in the reply window, just check 'Message is in HTML'
and copy the code from the share button on YouTube.

Of course this leaves you having to write out line breaks because the return key doesn't work in HTML, and I didn't do that because phone keyboards are abysmal for that stuff.

The code you just tried was like a url from an Android device, which has native YouTube.
You must have been on PC or an Apple device this morning.

This, is all I had to paste into the HTML reply window.
Notice my reply is not center justified on the page, like most other embeds,  because there's nothing saying to center it,.

And I still see an unused set of embed tags....
I really don't think you need to click that button.
Just posting as HTML is going to autogenerate it for you.
That's why it is a "share" link when you copy it from YouTube.

I'll have a listen to your new take if you promise to be safe as this latest hurricane gains strength and barrels over you.  
Man, it's been a busy season and not even November yet.  

Deal?

I want to bring him inside.  He looks so sad sitting out there.  But he's much better  off then where we normally keep him, under a huge tree that branches fall whenever a breeze blows.    It's starting to ramp up.

The front fender ones correct for '86?

You said LMC, so I'm guessing you don't care that they are knock-off?
