How much that sumbitch set you back?

 

$34 and shipping. Not a whole lot, thing it was a $40 part in the US anyway

 

Oh weird lol okay, I'd have thought opposite

 

Yeah I was pleasantly surprised. Gotta put the intake on tonight

 

Just the bushings.

 

I think your truck has eczema.

 

Super nice!

 

Snooze fest in here

 

I’m trying to Trig

 

Sin=1/cos or something.

But a squared plus b squared equals c squared is all you really need in life. Auto Cad does the weird triangle stuff for you.

 

AutoCad is neat, think I might try and find a solid works class this summer, just because

 

Its like autocad, just easier to forget in my case. And my instructor was horrible. Had us using youtube videos as templates for the midterm and final. No lie, this was the final project. Said "follow along with the video, due in a week"
Soildworks really shouldnt be an online only class btw.

 

Maybe AutoCad class would be difficult if I hadn’t used it before, professor isn’t great and the Ta’s don’t know what their talking about.

 

Yeah I got screwed in that solidworks class. When I registered for it, the class was supposed to be in person with a different instructor. Well that guy quit and the idiot they replaced him with decided a class with 1st year students learning 3d modeling could be taught online. We had like 3 assignments the whole semester. Only 2 were actually using solidworks. The midterm and final lol. Both self taught copying off youtube videos.
Pretty sure that guy doesnt work for my school anymore lol. The dept head emailed me personally asking what was up with the guy at the end of the semester.

 

Wtf. Go to fill up the tank and as I'm exiting the vehicle the damn seat lever pops loose and goes out the door. Pick it up, mutter a colorful descriptive and toss it into the cup holder.

Open the gas door and that POS tab the door locks around, breaks loose as I'm opening the gas door and goes flying.

 

I broke the lock thing on my 99 a couple years ago, shit just flaps around now.

 

Wondering if you guys with a manual trans have a clunk when changing gears.

When throwing it into gear (any gear, stop or roll), with foot on the clutch I get a little clunk when it pops into gear, even with the clutch pedal fully down. To me it seems like the clutch isn't fully disengaging, but it's real easy to get into gear, so it must be disengaging enough..

Just wondering if throwing it into gear and getting a little clunk is worth changing the clutch.

 

Post a vid if you can. Your definition and my definition of a bad sounding clunk are probably 2 different things. I do get a reassuring clickish noise from my shifter as I shift gears.

 

W. T. F. man, who put that curse on you?
