Sweet jeebus.

 

Do you have a butcher block driveway?

 

i heard yankees collect their rust, grind it into a fine powder & snort it.

 

FTFY

Someone wasnt having these new truck prices...

 

Long story short a few years ago they installed a new gym floor in our building. I grabbed a few 4x4 foot scraps to lay down on my gravel drive when I need to jack and support stuff since it gives a nice surface.

Don't give our secret away.

I finished up the passenger side this morning and no lie the impact probably saved me about 4 hours of work. I knew they were time savers but it far exceeded my expectations.

 

Tundra on call
“AC not working”
AC wasn’t turned on………

 

Got lesser wesser’d on the Nantahala today. Took the belly yak down and got a little bit of a beat down in the bottom hole

 

Glad it spit you back up!

 

Fixing to grease the zerks for the first time on my truck. Previous owner said he did them somewhat regularly, but I'm getting the thunk at stop lights. I know about the black hole slip yoke fitting and jumping on the bumper so that's how I'll do that one.

But the other 7 zerks - I've read conflicting info on how much grease to pump into those. 3 pumps? Pump until the old stuff squirts out? What's the consensus?

 

It usually a quick exit on lesser, but there’s always that chance. It’s a photo op spot so somebody usual has a throw rope there too if it’s needed

 

Ouch! Hope ya found someone good with a bit of suture material to stop the bleed and mend the margins..

 

She lives!! After exhausting my search of the cables and wires up and down the harness, I wire wheeled the battery cables’ exposed wires, cleaned the mess out of the newer positive terminal, and replaced the negative battery clamp. Sumbich fired right up.

Took no chances and bought some battery corrosion preventer and blasted everything!

 

Its never the fuel filter, it’s always the cables!!!!

My crash on the nannie. Almost had a clean run with no swims. Lesser wesser is the last rapid before the NOC championship course. I had a swim at lesser, and the last rapid of the championship course.

 

Oof.

 

Who doesn’t love warm shaken up beer?

 

Now grease up your damn handles

I clean my zerk tip, then pump until I see a fair amount of grease come out of the seals. I'm not one to pump until grease runs clear. A little funk in there never hurt anyone. Then wipe down to reduce sling.

Better than a dented door.

 

I resemble that remark

 

Looks 'on purpose' to me, all that dark trim to match the door.

 

IDK, could just be a replacement bed since the wheel flare is a different color.

 

I'm guessing it's a new door shell, they moved the trim, handle, mirror etc. over. Not rocket science here. It's what you do when you gotta do it.

 

uhh,,, my door is still not color matched thanks to body shop delays.

 

Uh y’all

I would like that a whole lot.

 

Pass
The 5vz is a great engine. But way underpowered for these big trucks without a supercharger.

 

It’s the one truck engine I don’t have yet

well, not really. Could use a 5.7 too.
