Bacon 7 day diet: Day 1 – Bacon and Eggs!

 

So, as a challenge, I have voluntered myself for a sacrifice – EAT bacon for 7 days. This is partly because I have a freezer full of bacon and partly because of my soul belief that there is no moderation when it comes to bacon.

So, the first recipe is bacon and eggs:

Ingredients

8 rashers american bacon (free-range piggies if available)
4 eggs (non-free-range)
Salt
Pepper
Corriander

Cooking

  1. 10-15 Minutes – Cook you bacon untill brown frying streaks appear – you now have the oil you will fry you eggs into, the ingredients said 8 rashers, personally there is no objection if you wanted more.
  2. 1-3 Minutes – Cook your eggs, I prefer them runny because this will give you something to dip your bacon into
  3. 1-3 Minutes – Now being half insane we’ll cook the two remaining eggs scrambled
  4. Flavour your eggs with Salt, Pepper and Corriander.

DONE

Suzuki Escudo: Swaybar Removal

Going along with the recommendations of the expert, I have been recommended to remove the sway bar/stabiliser arm on my Suzuki Escudo/Geo Tracker/Sidekick.

The reasoning behind this it to give your Escudo more articulation offroad. I am currently running the v6/4 door model springs front and rear which are a bit stiffer than the standard 3 door. May I say the combo matches perfectly! The suspension used to ride pretty hard on and offroad, the the 4 door springs complement the sway bar removal perfectly which now makes for a softer ride.

This is a fairly straight forward process – simple – 6 bolts simple!

So, let’s begin:

  1. Jack her up! Dont forget the axle stands!
  2. Undo the two bolts – holding the sway bar up – no 14 metric.
  3. Remove the two nuts and two bolts connected to the bracket holding the sway bar in place, note the No 17 nut had already been removed:
  4. The swaybar will easily come out now. Put the nut and bold back where they belong. Your end result will look like this on both right and left:

So far I have only had the chance to run one quick test which has been brilliant. You now have grip that you didnt otherwise have.
