    Park

    Even worse was on the TV show, "Starsky and Hutch", you would occasionally see the auto brake pedal, or the column shifter while the sound effects had him rowing a stick. And of course, he was always burning rubber. In a smog motored Torino? I don't think so. I thought the people that produce...

    New Batteries for Worklight

    I bought a new light. https://www.amazon.com/MAFSEUT-Rechargeable-Headlamp-Waterproof-Headlight/dp/B0BX35XX38/?tag=fabo03-20 I've had a couple before. It's just not worth the cost of new batteries. Thanks for teaching me about these rechargeable batteries. I'm sure I'll be able to justify...

    New Batteries for Worklight

    There are several in the 3400 range; some at 5000, But no others until those 9900's. Maybe it's just "optimistic advertising"? Beats me.

    New Batteries for Worklight

    Is 9900 amp/hour believable? Only one I've seen that high. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CG1KL3RC/?tag=fabo03-20 In regards to buying a brand name, what's good?

    New Batteries for Worklight

    It has (2) 18650 6800 mah 4.2v batteries in it now. The charge doesn't last long anymore. Searching, I only find numbers lower than 6800, and voltages lower than 4.2. Mostly 3.7. I know nothing about batteries like these, other than the 4.2 is voltage. I think the 18650 is a type, like a...

    Shipping parts- new way to me. Thought I’d share.

    Who ends up doing the actual shipping? UPS, Fed Ex, USPS, or? Whoever does the actual shipping gives pirateship a better rate?

    Ford 4.9 question. Yes ford question

    I have a '95 w/ a 4.9, no air pump, but it has a/c. I have wanted to do this too. My p/s leaks a little, and I'd rather just be rid of it. I think there's a link to a manual box in this link (LMC Truck). The one you found is cheaper, I think. One of my concerns was whether the p/s pitman...

    MoPars Left For Dead

    You could fight that ticket. There's nothing that says which side of the car you can't park on.

    Upholstery

    I never did a Mopar seat, but waaaay back when I worked on old (64 1/2 - 73) Mustangs, I found that the job went easier if I could do them outside in a warm sun. Much more workable.

    Barely 2 month old mufflers, cracked through

    Cragar refunded my entire purchase price for four wheels. (Smoothies), because they rusted. I give them credit for that. I didn't think they would, but I didn't know until I tried.

    Incessant Beeping!

    For years I have said that I don't need the microwave oven to beep when I push a button, when it's done, or WHENEVER! I know it's done; it shut off! Recently, I mentioned this to a friend of my step-daughter, and she said to google the brand and model number, and I'll find a Youtube video (in...

    Street Freaks, Customs, Rods, Street Machines...60's 70's 80's

    I had a friend who put a 327 in a '73. He was like you, could put a JY rear in it with his eyes closed. He eventually put a 12 bolt in it, and then it would rip the suspension arm mounts from the body. So, he put a rear sub frame in it. It held up, but it weighed more than his brother's '68...

    Sounds like new drag racing, donut circuses fines going up.

    It wouldn't hurt if Krasner, Philliy's Soros appointed DA, would allow the cops to do something. They can't even pull over a car with lights out, or no license plate. Nor do they want to. They get released and continue on. Why should a cop go out on the line, when the system doesn't cooperate?

    Thank you both. I figured someone must have it.
