DescriptionBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to aluminum-lithium alloys and more particularly to an aluminum-lithium alloy composition with high fracture toughness and high strength.
It has been estimated that current large commercial transport aircraft may be able to save from 15 to 20 gallons of fuel per year for every pound of weight that can be saved when building the aircraft. Over the projected 20 year life of an airplane, this savings amounts to 300 to 400 gallons of fuel. At current fuel costs, a significant investment to reduce the structural weight of the aircraft can be made to improve overall economic efficiency of the aircraft.
The need for improved performance in aircraft of various types can be satisfied by the use of improved engines, improved airframe design, and improved or new structural materials in the aircraft. Improvements in engines and aircraft design have generally pushed the limits of these technologies. However, the development of new and improved structural materials is now receiving increased attention, and is expected to yield further gains in performance.
Materials have always played an important role in dictating aircraft structural concepts. In the early part of this century, aircraft structure was composed of wood, primarily spruce, and fabric. Because shortages of spruce developed in the early part of the century, lightweight metal alloys began to be used as aircraft structural materials. At about the same time, improvements in design brought about the development of the all metal cantilevered wing. It was not until the 1930's, however, that the metal skin wing design became standard, and firmly established metals, primarily aluminum alloys, as the major airframe structural material. Since that time, aircraft structural materials have remained remarkably consistent with aluminum structural materials being used primarily in the wing, body and empennage, and with steel comprising the material for the landing gear and certain other speciality applications requiring very high strength materials.
Several new materials are currently being developed for incorporation into aircraft structure. These include new metallic materials, metal matrix composites and resin matrix composites. It is believed that improved aluminum alloys and carbon fiber composites will dominate aircraft structural materials in the coming decades. While composites will be used in increased percentages as aircraft structural materials, new lightweight aluminum alloys, and especially aluminum-lithium alloys show great promise for extending the usefulness of aluminum alloys.
Heretofore, aluminum-lithium alloys have been used only sparsely in aircraft structure. The relatively low use has been caused by casting difficulties associated with aluminum-lithium alloys and by their relatively low fracture toughness compared to other more conventional aluminum alloys. Aluminum-lithium alloys, however, provide a substantial lowering of the density of aluminum alloys (as well as a relatively high strength to weight ratio), which has been found to be very important in decreasing the overall weight of structural materials used in an aircraft. While substantial strides have been made in improving the aluminum-lithium processing technology, a major challenge is still to obtain a good blend of fracture toughness and high strength in an aluminum-lithium alloy.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention provides a novel aluminum alloy composition that can be worked and heat treated so as to provide an aluminum-lithium alloy with high strength, good fracture toughness, and relatively low density compared to conventional 2000 Series aluminum alloys that it is intended to replace. An alloy prepared in accordance with the present invention has a nominal composition on the order of 2.5 weight percent lithium, 1.0 percent magnesium, 1.6 percent copper and 0.12 percent zirconium. By underaging the alloy at a low temperature, an excellent blend of fracture toughness and high strength results.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
An aluminum-lithium alloy formulated in accordance with the present invention can contain from about 2.3 to about 2.7 percent lithium, 0.8 to 1.2 percent magnesium, 1.3 to 1.9 percent copper and a maximum of 0.15 percent zirconium as a grain refiner. Preferably from 0.1 to 0.15 percent zirconium is incorporated. All percentages herein are by weight percent based on the total weight of the alloy unless otherwise indicated. The magnesium in the alloy functions to increase strength and slightly decrease density. It also provides solid solution strengthening. The copper adds strength to the alloy. Zirconium functions as a preferred grain refiner.
Iron and silicon can each be present in maximums up to a total of 0.3 percent. It is preferred that these elements be present only in trace amounts, limiting the iron to a maximum of 0.15 percent and the silicon to a maximum of 0.12 percent, and most preferably to less than 0.10 percent and 0.10 percent, respectively. Certain trace elements such as zinc, may be present in the amounts up to, but not to exceed, 0.25 percent of the total. Other elements, such as chromium and manganese must be held to levels of 0.05 percent or below. If the maximums of these trace elements are exceeded, the desired properties of the aluminum-lithium alloy will tend to deteriorate. The trace elements sodium and hydrogen are also thought to be harmful to the properties (fracture toughness in particular) of aluminum-lithium alloys and should be held to the lowest levels practically attainable, for example on the order of 15 to 30 ppm (0.0015-0.0030 wt. %) for the sodium and less than 15 ppm (0.0015 wt. %) and preferably less than 1.0 ppm (0.0001 wt. %) for the hydrogen. The balance of the alloy, of course, comprises aluminum.
An aluminum-lithium alloy formulated in the proportions set forth in the foregoing paragraph is processed into an article utilizing known techniques. The alloy is formulated in molten form and cast into an ingot. The ingot is then homogenized at temperatures ranging from 925° F. to 1000° F. Thereafter, the alloy is converted into a usable article by conventional mechanical formation techniques such as rolling, extrusion or the like. Once an article is formed, the alloy is normally subjected to a solution treatment at temperatures ranging from 950° F. to 1000° F., quenched in a quenching medium such as water that is maintained at a temperature on the order of 70° F. to 150° F. If the alloy has been rolled or extruded, it is generally stretched on the order of 1 to 3 percent of its original length to relieve internal stresses.
The aluminum alloy can then be further worked and formed into the various shapes for its final application. Additional heat treatments such as solution heat treatment can be employed if desired. For example, an extruded product after being cut to desired length is generally solution heat treated at temperatures on the order of 975° F. for 1 to 4 hours. The product is then quenched in a quenching medium held at temperatures ranging from about 70° F. to 150° F.
Thereafter, in accordance with the present invention, the article is preferably subjected to an aging treatment that will increase the strength of the material, while maintaining its fracture toughness and other engineering properties at relatively high levels. In accordance with the present invention, the articles are subjected to a low temperature underage heat treatment at temperatures ranging from about 200° F. to about 300° F. It is preferred that the alloy be heat treated in the range of from about 250° F. to 275° F. At the higher temperatures, less time is needed to bring about the proper balance between strength and fracture toughness than at lower aging temperatures, but the overall property mix will be slightly less desireable. For example, when the aging is conducted at temperatures on the order of 275° F. to 300° F., it is preferred that the product be subjected to the aging temperature for periods of from 1 to 40 hours. On the other hand, when aging is conducted at temperatures on the order of 250° F. or below, aging times from 2 to 80 hours or more are preferred to bring about the proper balance between fracture toughness and strength. After the aging treatment, the aluminum-lithium articles are cooled to room temperature.
When the low temperature underaging treatment is conducted in accordance with the parameters set forth above, the treatment will result in an aluminum-lithium alloy having an ultimate strength on the order of 65 to 70 ksi. The fracture toughness of the material, however, will be on the order of 11/2 to 2 times greater than that of similar aluminum-lithium alloys subjected to conventional aging treatments, which are normally conducted at temperatures greater than 300° F. The superior strength and toughness combination achieved by the low temperature underaging techniques in accordance with the present invention also surprisingly causes some aluminum-lithium alloys to exhibit an improvement in stress corrosion resistance when contrasted with the same alloy aged with standard aging practices. Examples of these improved characteristics will be set forth in more detail in conjunction with the ensuing example.
The following example is presented to illustrate the superior characteristics of an aluminum-lithium alloy aged in accordance with the present invention and to assist one of ordinary skill in making and using the present invention. Moreover, it is intended to illustrate the significantly improved and unexpected characteristics of an aluminum-lithium alloy formulated and manufactured in accordance with the parameters of the present invention. The following example is not intended in any way to otherwise limit the scope of this disclosure or the protection granted by Letters Patent hereon.
An aluminum alloy containing 2.5 percent lithium, 1.0 percent magnesium, 1.6 percent copper, 0.15 percent zirconium with the balance being aluminum was formulated. The trace elements present in the formulation constituted less than about 0.25 percent of the total. The iron and silicon present in the formulation constituted less than 0.07 each percent of the formulation. The alloy was cast and homogenized at about 975° F. Thereafter, the alloy was hot rolled to a thickness of 0.2 inches. The resulting sheet was then solution treated at about 975° F. for about 1 hour. It was then quenched in water maintained at about 70° F. Thereafter, the sheet was subjected to a stretch of 11/2 percent of its initial length and then cut into specimens. The specimens were cut to a size of 0.5 inch by 21/2 inch by 0.2 inch for the precrack Charpy impact tests, one method of measuring fracture toughness. The specimens prepared for the tensile strength tests were 1 inch by 4 inches by 0.2 inches. A plurality of specimens were then aged for 16 and 40 hours at 275° F., and at 250° F. for 40 and 72 hours. Specimens aged at each of the temperatures and times were then subjected to the tensile strength and precrack Charpy impact tests in accordance with standard testing procedures.
The specimens underaged at 275° F. had ultimate strengths ranging from about 65 ksi to about 70 ksi with the toughness on the order of 650 to 750 in-lbs/in2. The specimens at 250° F. exhibited an ultimate strength ranging from 62 to 65 ksi, with the toughness in the range of 750 to 850 in-lbs/in2. These values compare with toughness values less than about 450 in-lbs/in2 for similar materials aged at temperatures over 300° F., yet having similar ultimate strengths.
The present invention has been described in relation to various embodiments, including the preferred formulation and processing parameters. One of ordinary skill after reading the foregoing specification will be able to effect various changes, substitutions of, equivalents and other alterations without departing from the broad concepts disclosed herein. It is therefore intended that the scope of the Letters Patent granter hereon will be limited only by the definition contained in the appended claims and equivalents thereof.

It usually doesn’t take long after the release of a video game for some of its craziest glitches to hit the internet. Take, for instance, this glitch from Madden that led to one gamer dropping a whole bunch of f-bombs after his team struggled to recover a fumble and his opponent scored a touchdown.
After getting released on Friday (or Thursday, if you were lucky), we officially have our first and what is sure to be weirdest glitch in NBA 2K18. For some reason, Lonzo Ball is naked in the game. Not like his player, mind you — a naked Lonzo Ball is not handling the point for the Los Angeles Lakers — but when one gamer went to look through the Lakers’ box score and got an update on how Ball was performing in the middle of the game, he couldn’t help but notice that his clothes were missing. (Warning: The video has some NSFW language.)
For Ball, it’s a mix of his player doesn’t have any clothes on and basically everything from his chest to his thighs are just … not there. There’s no word on whether this is a common thing or whether this just happens to this person, but if it’s the former, maybe one of the various versions of LaVar Ball that appear in the game can get Lonzo some Big Baller Brand merch.

A MERSEYSIDE Police officer’s outstanding courage in tackling a killer was recognised with an award.
Detective Sergeant Andrew Bolton won the North West regional Police Federation bravery award.
He and other shortlisted officers from Warrington and Runcorn were praised for their “professionalism and courage” by Prime Minister David Cameron at a Downing street reception.
DS Bolton was nominated for “displaying tenacity, dedication and professionalism” when he witnessed a brutal kicking attack in Southport off-duty on December 30 2009.
He, his son and his son’s girlfriend were celebrating his son’s birthday when the assault happened at a taxi rank and he wrestled the attacker to the ground.
He was surrounded by a crowd, some of them wielding iron bars, but kept his nerve and called for back-up.
Merseyside Police said that he showed “no thought for his own safety”, and was only concerned about saving the victim and apprehend those responsible.
He “showed courage”, the statement added.
Victim Anthony Johnson later died of his injuries, while the attacker, James Thompson, of Dobbs Drive, Formby, was convicted of murder.
During the trial at Liverpool Crown Court DS Bolton “endured significant and repeated cross-examination but withstood this and gave credible and detailed evidence,” according to the citation.
DS Bolton, a member of the specialist Matrix department, joined the force in 1992.
Merseyside Police Federation chairwoman Kathryn Kane said: “Although Andrew has been recognised for his bravery he remains very modest and insists he didn’t do anything out of the ordinary.”
Others short-listed for the awards including Warrington officers Sgt Graham Elliot and PC Ian Hampson who in 2009 stopped a gunman carrying a Glock 9mm and a shotgun into the town centre.
And Runcorn’s PC John Millar, who last year won the NW award, was also present because he could not attend the 2010 event. He tackled a gun-wielding woman who pointed her weapon at him before being knocked down by a passing car.

South Africa has had a few of their native sons make it to the UFC, but it’s still not necessarily thought of as a hotbed for MMA. However, over the past few years, regional promotion EFC has changed that. Don’t believe it? Look no further than their 145-pound titleholder Igeu Kabesa. Nicknamed “Smiley,” Kabesa has become appointment viewing. Originally from the Demoratic Republic of the Congo, Kabesa has traveled south to destroy the competition in emphatic fashion. He’s riding a four-fight winning streak dating back to a 2017 loss to UFC veteran Danny Henry. He also holds a win over Henry, as well as Bellator star Peter Queally. It’s time for Kabesa to join them in the likes of a top-tier promotion. That journey should begin on DWCS.
At 22, T.J. Laramie already has gotten the reps of a seasoned veteran. Unafraid to take tough fights despite his ever-evolving game and high potential ceiling, Laramie has fought Canada’s toughest tests. A well-rounded finisher through-and-through, Laramie is able to take the fight wherever necessary. In his most recent outing, Laramie showed the depths of his cardio and durability when he went 25 minutes for the second time in a victory over fellow top prospect Andrew Cruz. Laramie is the future of Canadian MMA, so why not throw him on DWCS?

Abstract Share this page
Abstract Tinnitus is often a disturbing symptom which affects 6-20\% of the population. Relationships among tinnitus pitch and loudness judgments, audiometric speech understanding measures and self-perceived handicap were evaluated in a sample of subjects with tinnitus and hearing loss (THL). Data obtained from the THL sample on the audiometric speech measures were compared to the performance of an age-matched hearing loss only (HL) group. Both groups had normal hearing through 1 kHz with a sloping configuration of < or = 20 dB/octave between 2-12 kHz. The THL subjects performed more poorly on the low predictability items of the Speech Perception in Noise Test, suggesting that tinnitus may interfere with the perception of speech signals having reduced linguistic redundancy. The THL subjects rated their tinnitus as annoying at relatively low sensation levels using the pitch-match frequency as the reference tone. Further, significant relationships were found between loudness judgment measures and self-rated annoyance. No predictable relationships were observed between the audiometric speech measures and perceived handicap using the Tinnitus Handicap Questionnaire. These findings support the use of self-report measures in tinnitus patients in that audiometric speech tests alone may be insufficient in describing an individual's reaction to his/her communication breakdowns.

Whey powders & lactose
Whey powder is a rich source of protein and carbohydrates. It can add value in a wide range of applications.
Sweet whey powder
Sweet whey powder is obtained by drying fresh whey that has been pasteurised. Sweet whey powder contains all the constituents of fresh whey, except moisture, in the same relative proportion.
Demineralized whey powder (from 20-90%)
Demineralized whey powder is obtained by removing a portion of the minerals from pasteurised whey. Typical levels of demineralisation are 25%, 50% and 90%. The dry product may not exceed 7% ash. Demineralised whey is produced by physical separation techniques such as precipitation, filtration or dialysis.
Delactosed whey powder
Delactosed whey powder is produced by removing lactose from the whey stream through concentrating and crystalizing followed by spray drying.
Acid whey powder
Acid whey powder is manufactured by drying fresh whey obtained from soft white cheese. Lactose content of acid whey powder is lower than sweet whey powder. Microbial fermentation lowers milk pH and changes lactose into lactic acid. As a result, acid whey has a more acidic taste compared to sweet whey.
Whey permeate is a co-product of whey protein concentrate and whey protein isolate production. It is low in proteins but rich in lactose (milk sugar) and minerals. The sensory, functional and nutritional benefits of whey and milk permeates are used as cost-saving, flavour-enhancing ingredients.
Demineralised whey permeate
Demineralised whey permeate is rich in lactose and has a low mineral salts content. This results in a less salty taste making it ideal for replacing lactose or other dairy ingredients.
Milk permeate is a co-product of milk protein concentrate or milk protein isolate production and ultrafiltered milk manufacturing. Milk permeate has a clean, consistent flavour.
Lactose is the main carbohydrate component of milk which is naturally present in mammal milk. Lactose can be supplied in several types and grades to meet varying functional and nutritional needs of end-users.

Bandung Urban Scenes - Exploring Urban Photography #1
Text and picture by Eki Qushay Akhwan
Urban environments may look visually chaotic. But to the discerning eyes of photographers and visual artists, this chaos is just a facade beneath which are hidden an infinite number of interesting elements ready to be discovered if only one can pay enough attention to the details and/or rhythms that make up that chaos. This, I think, what urban photography essentially is: an attempt to discover "order" in what looks like incomprehensible and chaotic realities.
In exploring urban photography, a genre of photography which is generally still categorized as a subform of documentary and/or street photography, a photographer needs to be creative and have a daring attitude to see the realities around them in different ways. One way to do it is to look for patterns, like what I did with this photograph, which I took at BEC (Bandung Electronic Center) parking lot a couple of days ago.

Are you looking for Suboxone doctors near you because your regular doctor or family doctor can not prescribe Suboxone? Suboxone use that is not prescribed and custom-tailored for you by a qualified suboxone doctor can lead to health dangers. To avoid this, the DEA (Drug Enforcement Authority) has laid down strict rules that require all healthcare providers to have special training, a federal license, and a DEA certificate to prescribe Suboxone.
A traditional way to get a suboxone prescription is through a suboxone clinicbut finding the right suboxone doctor near you who is eligible to prescribe Suboxone can be a challenging process.
You might have tried to manage withdrawal symptoms on your own, but withdrawal symptoms are difficult to manage without any medical supervision.
So, before we jump to quick prescription tips it is important to understand what Suboxone is and who can prescribe it? Suboxone is an opioid antagonist, which means that it reverses the opioid effect by preventing opioids from binding with receptors in the brain. In simple words, it lessens the intensity of opioid craving and withdrawal symptoms.
Suboxone consists of two active ingredients, buprenorphine, and naloxone. While naloxone reduces drug dependency, buprenorphine works effectively to minimize withdrawal symptoms.
Long-acting agonist: It helps patients cope with withdrawal symptoms and opioid-related cravings.
High-affinity agonist: It acts as a pain-reliever by preventing activation of pain receptors in the brain
Partial agonist: It has a low overdose and dependence risk.
Though buprenorphine present in Suboxone is less addictive than other opioids, its misuse can cause addiction. Thus if used as directed by a licensed doctor, Suboxone is a safe, stable, and result-oriented medication with the unmatched potential to treat opioid dependence.
At ChoicePoint, you can get a quick online prescription through our DEA-approved licensed doctors who can prescribe Suboxone to help you curb Opioid dependence.
We Accept All Insurance Programs
3 Simple Tips to Get Suboxone Prescription Near You
The National Institute on Drug Abuse confirms more than 2 million Americans have opioid use disorder, and 40% of the counties in the U.S do not have any healthcare provider to prescribe Suboxone. Such a vast population’s opioid dependence demands the availability of Suboxone- a wonder drug to treat opioid addiction.
Get Same-day Suboxone Prescription Near You
Following tips can help you to get Suboxone on your first visit.
1. Look for Telehealth Treatment Options:
Before 2018, federal law-bound drug users to have an in-person visit to a physician to get the prescription of withdrawal coping drugs.
But now, patients can get back control of their lives from opioids by availing Suboxone prescriptions through online resources.
What changes does telehealth bring for addiction treatment?
Effortless accessibility to Suboxone prescription
No need for an in-patient visit to a physician
A doctor can examine patients online
Patients can get the treatment at the comfort of their home
It is important to note that withdrawing from opioid agonists has various neurological and psychological effects. So, for sustainable recovery from opioid addiction, therapy is equally important as Suboxone treatment.
At ChoicePoint, we are helping patients get both Suboxone and counseling they need to fully recover from opioid addiction at the comfort of their homes through telehealth addiction treatment programs.
2. Prescription Through Treatment Match Locators
Treatment match locators are another way of finding Suboxone doctors near you. Organizations such as the National Alliance of Advocates for Buprenorphine Treatment (NAABT) and SAMHSA bridge the gap between treatment providers and opioid users. Patients in need of suboxone can quickly get the prescription by connecting with treatment providers.
Here is a step by step procedure to use the NAABT treatment match locator as a suboxone finder:
Step-1: Register yourself as a patient
Step-2: Enter your medical history, such as patient ID
Step-3: Enter your location
Step-4: Providers will receive an email of your requirements
Step-5: If it suits their match, providers will send you an email
The NAABT treatment match directory has more than five thousand active treatment providers, which means that the chances of getting Suboxone doctors near you through a treatment match locator are high.
If you’re unable to find any doctor who is accepting a new patient, then don’t worry. Contact ChoicePoint, and we’ll arrange Suboxone treatment for you.
3. Utilize ChoicePoint MAT Program for Same-Day Prescription:
Step 2: Healthcare provider will reach out to you at your scheduled time
Step 3: Provide the relevant and correct information to the supportive care team
Step 4: Connect with a doctor to get your prescription
How Does Suboxone Work
Our MAT program is covered by insurance and well-equipped with all FDA-approved medications. Our licensed doctors prescribe the following medications:
Naltrexone: Vivitrol or ReVia is used to treat opioid and alcohol addiction
Buprenorphine: To treat opioid use disorder
Suboxone: To treat chronic pain and opioid addiction
Does Suboxone’s Side Effects Compromise Its Effectiveness?
Suboxone is a controlled substance and requires strict dosage monitoring. Indeed, Suboxone’s effectiveness outweighs its side effects. The use of Suboxone is reported to increase patient retention rate in rehab programs, and lessen overdose and drug-related abuse.
Some of the side effects of Suboxone include:
But these side effects occur only if patients misuse it by not taking it as directed by the physician. However, continued and increased patient monitoring, can prevent the misuse and side effects of Suboxone.
As suboxone has high abuse potential, there are strict federal restrictions on who can prescribe suboxone. Finding suboxone doctors near you who are currently accepting patients may seem a challenging task.
We have a solution for you. ChoicePoint’s supportive care team can help you connect to a licensed doctor within a few minutes. We offer online suboxone prescriptions through telehealth addiction treatment. So, you can get your prescription today by calling us at 844.445.2563.

Many businesses benefit from providing wireless internet access, commonly known as “Wi-Fi,” to their employees or customers. While some businesses may offer Wi-Fi access as a bonus to customers, such as coffee shops, others may prefer to limit access to authorized users. Allowing unknown individuals onto a wireless network can pose security problems, as hackers may be able to access other customers’ computers, or even find a way into the business’ network. One recent case has demonstrated how a criminal investigation can result when online criminal activity traces to an unsecured Wi-Fi network.
Wi-Fi technology first came into use in 1999, when the Wireless Ethernet Compatibility Alliance announced a standard for wireless internet connections. The term “Wi-Fi” was chosen as a simple way to describe the new standard. It allows users to access the internet on a computer or mobile device without cable connections, provided they are close to a wireless router. Wi-Fi “hotspots” are available at many businesses and public spaces. Some require paid registration or subscription, and others simply require the user’s computer to register on the network. Some wireless routers have no restrictions on who may use them, particularly routers in private homes. This leaves them open to exploitation by others.
Many people have, at one time or another, used an unsecured Wi-Fi network, but most people would do so for a mundane purpose like checking e-mail. According to federal prosecutors in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Richard Stanley used an unsecured network to share child pornography. Investigators with the Pennsylvania State Police traced the activity to a specific internet protocol (IP) address, that of a paying Comcast subscriber who knew nothing of Stanley’s alleged activities. They obtained the person’s address through Comcast, executed a search warrant on the premises, and found nothing. Because suspicion of child pornography is something that no person or small business wants as the subject of a search warrant, this story should serve as a warning to maintain secured wireless networks at all times.
Fortunately for the Comcast subscriber, police concluded that someone else was using the Wi-Fi network. This is where the story takes an interesting turn in both a technological and legal sense. Police investigators used a program known as Moocherhunter, which can locate other computers or mobile devices connected to a Wi-Fi network in the immediate vicinity. The determined that Stanley, who lived across the street, was “mooching” off the person’s Wi-Fi, and used that information to obtain a warrant to search Stanley’s home.
Stanley’s criminal case has largely revolved around the question of whether police may use a program like Moocherhunter to pinpoint a suspect’s location without a warrant. A judge ruled last month that Stanley did not have a reasonable expectation of privacy, since he was using someone else’s network. For small businesses, homeowners, and other wireless internet users, the risk of actual criminal liability from a case such as this seems minimal to nonexistent, but that may be beside the point. The real issue is avoiding even the appearance of involvement with activities such as those described in this ongoing criminal matter. Maintaining the security of one’s Wi-Fi network seems like a wise investment.

However, as discussed earlier, selection bias may pollute even data that reach beyond the world of published opinions.

Creaky, collapsed body mounts and worn-out suspension bushings are not only annoying but can contribute to poor ride quality and ill handling that can even be dangerous. As our cars age, it’s worth paying close attention to the suspension bushings and body mounts, and to replace them if they show signs of wear. We could tell the body-mount bushings on Project Truck Norris, Car Craft’s 1967 C10 had seen better days. The body line through the lower portion of the door no longer lined up with the continuing line in the bedside. There was also a general crashy, rattling feel inside the cab over bumpy roads and freeway-expansion joints. Likewise, the suspension bushings were cracking and showed excessive movement in their mounting locations.
We brought Truck Norris to Energy Suspension’s headquarters in San Clemente, California, where product specialists Billy Ray Harrill and Ben LaHatt deftly replaced all the suspension and body-mount bushings in the course of a normal working day. The results were a surprisingly smoother, tighter ride quality and less creaking and rattling in the interior—at least, the creaks that we can hear over the exhaust.
