    I’ll need to dig up my receipt from when I bought my first OEM one in 2003. I think it was like $1.27 or something. Definitely under $2.50.

    I've been threatening to move to SS braided extended brake lines front and rear. Necessity isn't there at my current state, but I'd feel better with them.

    Washed my truck and applied some Griots 3-in-1. Adjusted the headlights and ordered a new ballast. Tired of it taking 2-4 attempts for my driver side headlight to come on.

    Grabbed this crappy picture.

    New LSD and used Sequoia 4.10's. truck feels good... Got it inspected, now to install the Quantum ECU. Or maybe I should go to bed. I gotta work tonight. Maybe I'll do a 0-60mph pull with just the gears before installing the ECU.

    It's funny this truck now reads high while the other truck reads low.

    It looks like a Tacoma/Tundra mix. The cloudy headlights track though.

    It was less the truck, more the comically long gun barrel, with fire coming out where you'd expect a normal barrel to end...and how the guy's holding it. I mean I'm not going to pretend every militia bro out there is a highly trained soldier, but I'd expect they at least know how to hold a gun from watching all the war-movie-porn they fantasize about.

    Is he cut off at the kneecaps or did they surgically attach his feet to his knees?

    Are OEM drums still the way to go? Even with the discount right now, they are $130/side.

    Unfortunately, the new stove has roaches. I didn't expect that from a climate controlled storage building (not mamaws house)

    Any ideas on how to remove them? This stove is outside now, and needs a good clean. Our old, roach free, coil top is still in service. I'd like to clean the flat top if possible

    When I had roaches in my first TX apartment, cold is what drove them to a warm place. Turn the heat down in the winter and kill them after they rush to the heat condenser coil on the back of the fridge. They just need a warm area to migrate to when it’s cold outside. Either that or used compressed air to blow them out. I haven’t tried that method though.

    What kind of roaches? If German roaches, the skinny orangish-brown ones, get that fucking stove out STAT, because the entire house will be overrun soon, theyre NOT cheap to get rid of. These fuckers are a bane to existence. My best friend carried them across 3 rental houses. I have tips for control, but ... fuck man. Get it out and start treating ASAP, it only takes a few days for them to establish.
