It takes time friend, we are all here to help

I totally agree that I need to ditch the blocks, PO did that and I had ordered new springs for a proper lift already. Fun thing is they arrived the Thursday before the accident and I was going to replace them that weekend but some old friends from the corps showed up and we partied instead. Come...

Should have said, I somehow lucked out and the frame is fine (says two people with 30+ years exp). Hopefully that inital assessment is correct... I am also scared about the tc and front shaft... that axle got pushed back a few inches. I do hope the impact didnt do something horrible to my drive...

So a a few weeks ago someone made a left turn when I had the light. I was traveling at about 45 mph before brake application and I struck the other vehicle (a Ford, lol) sustaining damage to the front left side of the truck. I will post picture's in the next post, as they are on my phone. My...

So on Friday, I drove from about the center of Virginia to Boston. Saturday back home to VA, then today to Agusta GA. Total distance traveled is a bit over 2052 (pulling over for fuel adding a bit but negligable). In another thread I had erroneously reported 28mpg. Looking back on the day I did...

Question is, inst it better to go UP in guage when in doubt, assuming the proper fuse is 'up river' to ensure the electromatronic doesnt fry itself, but the extra wire to ensure it can pull enough power? Or am I more ignorant than I think I am?

Oh the stories of my father... "You dont know programming unless you've written one with punch cards"

I see your hood is popped... did you paint it with it open? If so, did you cover the engine bay from overspray or was it not an issue. Also looks like you painted the grille while it was still attached, did you cover the radiator? I don't have a garage or a friendly mall garage to use so I'll...

A lot, if not all, LED bulbs have pos/neg and wont work if backwards. Hate to ask, but is it in right? Edit: That I know of it seems. Must learn more.

Bump for this "Loose lips sink ships" An some need to be reminded to know better

Honestly those are inflated prices because insurance companies will pay it typically. When something gets mandated it becimes more expensive, along with everything its involved it, and the quality goes down. I digress... I had a Hyundai Tiburon a while back with bad window regulators, I...
