Hey @TacoMitch93, can you tell me how to design and build a propane distribution manifold for my trailer?

 

I can 100% do research and help you with it!

 

I thought you are qualified to build a factory from scratch? Aren't you an engineer?

In all seriousness, I have done a fair amount of Google research but all I can find are off the shelf components for RVs that don't do what I want, and blanket admonitions against blowing oneself up. You may be able to help me refine my research to a more productive result. The problem is very simple. I'll save the rest for coffee night this Wednesday.

 

Gonna do this tomorrow. Well, start it anyway. Hopefully it goes more smoothly than the lower ball joint without a press adapter adventure.

 

I have a regulator that comes off a bbq if that helps
It was supposed to be for my aluminium forge but as usual I have way too many projects and not enough money

 

I am a power engineer! I have an education in gas trains and such. Unfortunatey I don't have my gas ticket. I can't do any work to the boiler burners because they'e NG.

We'll talk about it at coffee for sure. Once I know what you want I can do some research when I'm on nights.

 

I did my lower balljoints on Saturday. Found out I also need an upper, and i bent a lower control arm! Fun times in the Maritimes!

 

How did you bend the lower?

 

I ran into a giant rock going back into bump and grind a couple years ago.

Would have been fine if my buddy didn't break an axle and make me go back through half the trail!

 

I have an SPC upper ball joint on my shelf if you're stuck

 

I appreciate it! I ordered a couple yesterday. I'm sure I'll be fine til they get here!

 

The tracking information says they will be here Thursday.. I only ordered them Sunday, best shipping I've ever got

 

rock auto?
I checked Napa, was shocked to see it ball joints to be in the $70 range and they only had Napa stuff, no moog

 

Rock auto is definitely the best price for LBJ, and also the u-joints and CB. I don't think they carry UBJ for the SPC LR UCA though. I got mine from SPC through Amazon.com

 

Anyone else loose power?

 

It's been flickering here for a while, but holding steady just now. Drop by if you want to hang out

 

be like me and buy a generator and you'll never have another power outage again i bought mine 6 yrs ago in the winter months i went from losing power to pretty well every other day to losing power to almost never I've maybe used the thing since i bought it 5 times i think its just the way of the road

 

I'm a regular at car quest in Dartmouth. They normally give me a decent price on things. I usually get a lot of my parts local. Something about 8 dollar brake pads scares me.

 

I try to go local too, but two kids with one of our salaries on the maternity leave 60% thingy, I need to save my pennies where I can.

@TacoMitch93 the $8 brake pads shouldn't scare you, they should scare the vehicle in front of you at a stop light

 

Are we still on for coffee tonight?
