Looks good, glad it fits!

 

Forgot to put this up this morning. Wish I could’ve gotten a better picture of this FJ. Had a good amount of lift and a winch. Looks like the same RTT as Jason’s. Anyone here?? Northeast expressway this morning around 7:40am

 

well eventually got remote desktop to work, put in a healthy 4 hours lol. still have a fever but i already agreed to a meeting tomorrow so I am going in lol, also got an email from my boss. he went to pick up a lab grade oven for testing he got from an auction on bidspotter.com.....well he thought it would fit in his little fiesta....turns out it doesn't lol. So he was like hey you need to pick it up, I am all for it especially since i get paid for mileage a ridiculous amount (like 50cents a mile....made bank the time i had to drive up to NH) but then im like how big is it cause i have a cap and i can't pull that off myself he's like about 3 ft tall and it's on a pallet, so they'll load it with a fork lift. I'm like well height I have about 2ft 7in without removing cap and width where the wheel wells are is like 3ft 8in or something. I was like best bet is probably a trailer if you don't know how big it is. So might be going to uhaul lol

 

I’ll rent you my trailer..... $.55/ mile.

 

Been tied up on a piping job since the beginning of last week(local too ). A nice welcome break from driving to NewBedford....

They better look out... I could get used to this....

 

Looking good!

 

Decided tonight I'm listing my cap for sale this weekend.

I found one of the clamps got loose enough it slightly shifted and wore a small hole in the paint on the bedrail, so I want to sell it before it progresses anymore. Between that and not truly liking the aesthetics, it's going up for sale. It's a shame because it would have made a great light bar mount, but it's just not going to work for what I want.

I can't believe I'm still feeling green from this weekend. How the baby only got sick for a few days is beyond me.

 

So i got a pro tip watching a YouTube video. Put the rotor on, add the caliper (rough add) and then put a heavy duty screwdriver in the slot and brace it agaist the caliper. Worked like a dream. I was reluctant to put the truck in 4 lo with the chance something was misaligned.

 

For the 3rd gen?

 

Correct.

 

I could be interested... DCSB right?

 

Correct.

Thanks, way rusty.... been 2 years since I've done ANY piping.... let alone soft soldering larger copper.
I'm service normally... thankfully the fitter I'm working with does a lot, and helped me remember.
Honestly work with some of the best welders and fitters I've met... from here to Texas......

 

Anyone in here networking wizards? I have Xfinity internet and it’s driving me nuts. Everyday..multiple times a day.. my internet drops out. I have a modem from them and running the google whole home WiFi with it. Most times it’s only for a couple minutes but for instance in the past hour trying to study for a test tomorrow it’s dropped out 4 times.

Both modem and router is up to date and I’ve talked to comcast and they just tell me “everything looks good on their end”

 

Of course it looks good on their end....

Link up wifi directly to the x1 router.. see if it helps.

Anything hard wired? TV, desktop?

My TVs are hardwired...

 

I keep having the same exact problem with them

 

Driving me nuts and they have a monopoly of course on the product. Supposedly we’re getting fiber eventually but I live outside of town so our area isn’t a priority

 

Nothing hardwired except for the router into the modem

 

Are there neighbors that live close enough and interfere and be on the same frequency as you? Also there are some home room to room and the baby monitor stuff that operate on the same frequency as the Wi-Fi. It could be you have something that is intermittently activating and drowning out your Wi-Fi signal. First thing I would do is change your Wi-Fi channel either one or 11 I think they default to like seven so everybody ends up with the same channel. There are some SS ID sniffer programs you can run on a laptop that will show you all the Wi-Fi signals available in your house from here you could see which channels are overlapping and receiving interference

 

I recently had a similar issue with my Linksys Velop mesh network and spent about 1:15 on the phone with India troubleshooting. they had me change a bunch of settings but I don’t remember what they were. I have charter and it was the router settings vs the provider settings.
