			    Hoping the new magnetic filter will help trap any metal particulates and prevent the 95 k1500 from eating POS remaned power steering pumps from our FLAPS. 15 month lifespan is too damn short, especially after flushing the system with several quarts of PS fluid which creates one hell of a mess too boot. Inspected seven different pumps at five different FLAPS before finding an acceptable one. Between folded return tubes, missing parts and damaged reservoirs, it was maddening. My personal favorite was the spirited disagreement I had with the Napa in Pollock Pines when they said it was a new unit when it had been clearly installed then returned. I like their explanation of the lifetime warranty too........not! Not a very difficult job but still a PITA if your willing to get your hands dirty. You can warranty a turd if you want. What give with refurbished crap nowadays? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

			That will be its last hurrah.  They grow for years, eventually producing that huge stalk with buds on top.  Then they die.  Here are pics of the bloom on one of my cacti.  It produced three of these.  They sprout, bloom, and die down in just a few days, but are one of the most spectacular blooms I've seen.

			The whole plant dies out or just the stiffy reaching for the sky?

			My neighbor across the road had one that grew for something like fifteen or twenty years.  Two years ago, it grew a stalk, bloomed and then slowly started dying.  It was on a slope, so he tore it out with his back hoe, put it his burning pile to dry and burned the remains with the rest of his limbs & brush.  They do grow little ones from runners, which can be dug up & transplanted.
