Oof! Where was the checkpoint?? Good to know what the price will be when I finally get stopped for it.

If i still had a front plate to use, i would. but for now ill rock one plate until i can decide on a vanity license plate and get a matching set.

That sucks. Maybe you can reorient the pipe?

well i was able to raise the pipe by pulling up on the rubber hanger with a hose clamp...no more rattle on the bumps! didn't need much room but that did the trick...going to look at a more permanent solution...maybe a new smaller rubber hanger? i know some people hang the pipe without the rubber but the vibration through the cabin is nuts.

morning nepoc! looking forward to the meet sat. looks like the rain will keep this get together a more wrenching day, oh well...i have much wrenching to do.

lol....Bruce finally got his sugar momma.

Morning everybody...the sun is out! Woot! Stopping at the in-laws after work for dinner and to hide Easter eggs for the nieces and nephews. Looking forward to it now that our kids are "too old" to do that...according to them anyway.

Start putting dollar bills in the plastic eggs and see how fast they change their mind...

Tell them one egg has Justin Bieber tickets in it, they just have to find it...they'll be looking for a week!

That Cat Converter I ordered yesterday at noon was shipped regular FedEx ground for 8 bucks. It was already out for delivery as of 5am this morning. Same thing happened when I ordered the muffler a few months ago, it was on my doorstep within 2 days. They don't mess around with shipping. I'll definitely keep using this website in the future (for beater/daily driver parts only).

EC2 is giving us some major headaches today. WTF Amazon.

So I was just looking at my axle back and looks like the bolts were welded on, probably going to be a problem come sat.....Jeff did you have this problem?

 

[Fireglow6]

Oh and got these today!

Yup, when I swapped out my stocker I had to make a trip to Meineke to have them cut them off. Don't remember if Mahk has a grinder but if so we can use that to cut them off.

I have beer and it is fracking delicious!

 

[Reitrof]

Bourbon Beer? I'll try anything once.

Did an oil change and painted the hoops again.

 

[subspeed6]

I've been threatened upon pain of death that I reserve some for someone. However, I don't think you'd like it Bruce. If I remember right, you don't like dark beers?

Nope. Don't hold one for me.

 

[subspeed6]

I'll save you a taste and let you decide. Sound like a plan?

When we installed an axle back on my P5 we used a grinder on the bolts because they were rusted on.

 

[Fireglow6]

Yea looks like thats what I am going to have to do....I could just get the bolts from HD or something right? wonder what size I would need.....

Mahk, have a grinder handy to assist in this?
