    Little this. Little that 4x4 Swap’d PreRunner

    My dad has one like it. They're not bad! I'm gonna try out some bikes from buddies and see what's a good fit.

    Thanks for the insight!

    I learned from @jberry813 probably 6 years ago how to take the dust cover off easily. I take a thin flat head screwdriver and place the edge almost parallel (10-15 degree angle) to the edge of the cover. Then start tapping between the cover and hub going all the way around till the cover starts to separate. When you have enough gap, turn the screwdriver perpendicular and pop it off. No damage to the cover and takes about 30 seconds. I've seen people absolutely gouge their covers trying to get them off. Next time I remove mine I'll take a video.

    Not enough to have a build thread.
    Didn't see a pry bar on this list. Not sure about tacos but a lot of halfahafts have to be pried or beaten out of the diff due to a snap ring on the back side

    also helps when using the "beat it with a hammer" method" to separate a bj from the knuckle.

    They're all cunts and DGAF about anyone else on the road. Any lazy loser with a car and no real job prospects is driving for them.

    Because it isn't actually a checklist, or because the school can't spell "debris"?

    Exactly. Stupidest unorganized joke worthless piece of paper I've ever seen. I'm not filling it out for my team. I showed a few people and they all laugh at the poopoo. The 'list' itself was the funny part to me. Im like no, the SCHOOL DISTRICT made this piece of paper. They're interesting. After they repainted the swim center about 5 years ago, they stenciled in big black letters on the wall "MAXIMUM OCCUPANNCY". I laughed so hard, it was up for years. My friend in the parks dept roasted the district in a meeting about it and it was finally gone

    Random question:

    Any recommendations for a collection agency that can get me my money, have three customers that are non responsive...

    Have never had to go this far in the 8 years of doing business.

    Don't really care about the cash (well kinda) just want them to get docked on their credit score and what not.

    Cheers

    I had a guy call representing a collection company for me once. He worked at a collection company and used there phone.

    Needless to say, I got paid, and gave him a few dollars for his help.

    Just an idea.

    I have tried using different phone numbers so they would pick up, worked on two of the three but just give me the run around.

    All three business are still open and operating, one is a very reputable vineyard in town.

    Fell like bashing them on social media but don't really want to take it that route.
