Stop in for a cup of coffee

once the bolt was out, I had to sand it smooth because it had some rust and rough spots.

I like to clean the rust off with a bench grinder wire wheel...

Or a wire wheel on a drill...


Congrats on getting the bolt out...

you don't have an avatar so does that mean you don't wear underwear either. :evil3::evil3:

(ummm...don't actually answer that ...it's just a joke but no one wants to know for real)

As an old college buddy of mine put it:

You have to wear underwear. "Underwear is a defense mechanism in case you fart and it isn't one, it saves your pants...." - Tim M.

hate to be nit picky but anyway to remove the snorkel from the air cleaner and round out the top of the air cleaner to appear like there is no lid.

You're being nit picky.... :farao:

you kinda had me doubting when you said it could have engine smoke or a leaky windshield and you sounded stressed about it.....

I was thinking Soooo.......windshield gaskets are not that hard to put in and I would swap an engine in a weekend.

I understand not everyone gets jumps into the deep end of cars like I do....but also remember .....if I can do it, surely you can too because I am the last person on the planet that anyone would expect to be doing this stuff LOL.

One day I just got the attitude that I am going to try anything and everything on a car and if I mess it up, oh well, if I don't try it myself, nobody is going to help me so Rani has to depend on Rani

Where I live they don't allow working on cars so that's a big part of it.

yikes ...where do you live ....in the middle east!!!

sorry bad joke but that is a huge problem.

either way, the right car will come along someday.

right now is a great time to shop because the economy is such crap, it really seems the prices have all come down and more cars are for sale.

I remember years ago (06 07 around there) when I couldn't touch cars and certain parts and then suddenly it seems everything is available and for more reasonable money than it used to be.

That perfect car is out there with your name all over it.

Well, I feel a cold coming on today...

Been taking garlic to help feel better, but have a scratchy throat...


I better get some rest and see how I feel in the morning...

Good morning!

I'm kind of sore today. The living room looks even better in daylight! We're still debating where to put the TV. This room has been a major headache since we got the house 13 years ago. We've struggled to think of a good way to furnish the room. Getting rid of that patio door helped a lot but the room is still too big and incorrectly proportioned.

 

[halifaxhops]

Good morning up way to early!

 

[360DartGT66]

Yeah, you must be.

 

[halifaxhops]

The cat knocked over my water on me hard to get back to sleep afterwards. The living room looks great!

 

[360DartGT66]

Thanks. On my way out to look at some blinds for the windows. Back in a bit!

Good morning! Ready for another week.

 

[ScampMike]

g'morning - not ready for another week... LOL

 

[zkx14]

those new rear shackles in your car look fantastic ....are they longer than stock ones?

I like a more shackle than original but not enough to start getting Joe dirt about it

They are stock size.

I see you got the bolt to separate from the sleeve. :cheers: mine was rust-bonded to the point it was like one piece even after I removed it. :banghead:

So, since you are doing the bolt inventory thing, what size bolts and eye do you have? You may have seen in my post, I had 9/16 bolt (not 1/2 or 5/8" as I was told it must be. Lol) in a 2" eye and upsized it to 5/8.
