What size tires and what’s your r&p gear ratio?

Well, that’s a stock sized tire, so it’s not like it’s undergeared. Hopefully it was just a few wind gusts? I would think that would have to be a very noticeable wind gust if there was a downshift at 80mph. Not much you can really do about it if there is something the matter with it. The most you could do is try changing the fluid if it happens again. I’d probably just pretend that it didn’t ever happen.

 

Yea, gonna blame it on the wind. I’m only at 150k, and havent really abused the trans much yet. Which is why it concerned me. Yesterday woulda been about the worst possible time for something to happen. Polo & i can handle waiting for a tow truck, but grandma cant. A 50 mile ride is almost too far without a pitstop.

I could use one of these. As long as it can change its own sheer pins.

 

The downside of snow in Texas?

 

I think i’d move if i had to shovel rain.

 

3" trash pump and a few 10k gallon tanks. Then you'd have water for the garden during dry periods.

 

My well tank is about 40k gallons. But when i get my pond liners in this year i’m guessing that’ll hold another 1500 gal or so. Hoping the deer will stay out of it this time.

 

Is that a typo? 40K is a Shit Ton of storage lol.
EDIT, for one tank

 

Gotta be 4k gallons, a pretty common size in Texas for low producing wells. I did some work for a guy once who had a whole outbuilding dedicated to water storage. I think he had 10-12k gallons of capacity and a high dollar R/O system that fed the whole property with filtered water.

sell guided hunts

 

Its a 20ft wide concrete tank thats about 20ft tall. When i climb on top to fix my float/level gauge, i know a shark isnt gonna jump out and eat me, but i dont completely believe that a shark wont jump up & eat me. I’ve been there 9 years & havent had the balls to climb in & go swimming yet.

 

Holy shit!

T Boone Pickens has said that water will be the next oil boom in Texas. if so you're set.

 

for $1000 you get a hand full of corn & a ball peen hammer.

Too many people. They were supposed to clog up between san antonio & austin. I didnt move far enough west.

 

This should just about do it

A cousin of mine bought property out there next door to big bend. Put up a pretty fancy dome cabin thing.

i dont have fb anymore, but i’d bet they rent it out as an airbnb or something.

 

Mother fucker. I can't even get away from the whilst gaming.

 

It could be worse

I had cinderblock shelves in highschool.

 

I need to finish that Leisure Suit Larry game I got 20+ something years ago.

 

Take a piss and get a shower ffs! Or wall him off/time accelerate and get it over with lmfao.
Alternately you can remove the exit ladder from the pool
Kids had that game, and I messed with it a Long time ago

 

I need to tap new threads for this rear seatbelt bolt. First time ever having to do this. Suggestions?

 

Are the threads buggered enough to need a larger bolt?

 

Clean the threads out reeeaaaal good. Then when using the tap, keep it perpendicular. Use a little cutting oil. Do a 1/2 - 1 turn and then back out and clear the tap, repeat the clearing as necessary. Clean the newly tapped threads out reeeaaaal good again. If it won’t hold the bolt or feels loose, may need to upsize the bolt.

 

I can't thread the bolt in more than a few cm. I can see the threads are damaged. So I don't really know what else to do.

I don't own a tap set. Will it be obvious what size I need to start with?

 

Used the truck to push the car out of the mud pit of our front yard. These rains been killer

 

Sidenote: I am so thankful I had the foresight to give my vehicles a decent service/tuneup before my boiii was born because oooooooof

This cyclical bill schedule is taking it out of us
