You said you had Napa extend the hoses by ten feet. Did they just use hydraulic line and fittings?

They have a gun range?!! What else could a man ask for then? There really will be lacking nothing!

Ducer, I'm sorry I got upset with you. Yes I'm certain that it would catch up with me if I continued to paint without a respirator. Fact of the matter is that I haven't done that in years and only did it a couple of times anyway. I am no longer a painter. Just one of the few jobs I've held. As...

Ok, so now the front seal is leaking it sounds like. The transmission will have to be removed, torque converter slid out, and the front seal ( pump bushing too) replaced. There is an o- ring on the pump shaft that can get knicked, or just fail from age and allow a slow leakdown. Really no way to...

Did you guys ever get this issue resolved? It could also be that the torque converter is losing prime over time and draining back into the case/ pan, which would cause it to overflow from the vent. Consequently, when the vehicle is restarted the converter sucks all the fluid from the pan leaving...

Sweet rig. I like it

Glad to see you are on your way to getting her running again.

Yes I do know. Well I guess we just tell the O.P. that he can't paint his wife's jeep. Cool. There you go Lrddude, you have your options but we can't endorse them. You have to make your own decisions instead of being a sheep.

Relax man. I've been painting vehicles both in paint booths professionally and outside for friends with and without respirators for years. Yes I agree a respirator is important to have, not telling him not to wear one. But I'm not a vegetable from not using a respirator sometimes either. Only...

No you just need to sell the Dodge and use the money to buy more green iron!

Ahh the dreaded neighbors... I understand. Well, you can always go out of the city limits or a large parking lot in an industrial zone and use the air system on the truck to run a cheap HVLP spray gun. Of course you will want to use a small desiccant filter in line before the gun. I did a jeep...

Oh man, people make things out to be so much more toxic than they are. Honestly, yes you should wear a respirator to keep particulates out of your lungs, but the overspray isn't going to kill plants and destroy the atmosphere. Just use proper protective equipment for yourself. For what it's...

Do you have any shops that make hydraulic hoses in your area? My local Napa store does it. Probably come out cheaper that way than buying 50 feet of hose.

Funny how manufacturers either stop making or fail to ever make replacement parts for the things that last for a long time. Not profitable I guess.

Owned!

No I was not informed that everyone was out. The woman and her children were all hysterical and couldn't answer questions straight. Their grandma also lives there and was nowhere to be seen. Turned out she was staying with another family members house that night. I have volunteered for the F.D...

Oh no, I know the difference between scba and a gas mask, but it was all I had and wasn't going to stand by and do nothing. Hope I never am in a position like that again. And yes, I was running short of breath by the time I got out. I knew exactly what risk I was taking with the equipment I had...

What about brake shoes from the parking brake drums on Allison equipped older school buses and some older R.Vs and heavy trucks? Would those work, or are they the wrong size?

I keep abc extinguishers everywhere since about three months ago. One o clock in the morning, real bad thunderstorm, pouring rain. My neighbor works nights and only his wife and three very young children were home. Lightning hit the house and caught the wiring in the kitchen wall and the digital...

Well yes I'm certain they aren't dead every time and the vehicles are not always undriveable, but for a first time pickup from GL I believe it would be better for him to have these things and not need them, than need them and not have them. Nothing wrong with being over prepared if you can swing...
