My girl isnt that bad but yeah some of my buddys girls are a little extra

 

Nahh I picked this one particularly because she doesn't partake in BS like that

...she does watch cringe tik toks though

 

I like that. Some days, I wish my Tacoma had a longer bed.

I checked the local listings out of curiosity. Nothing '79-80 on Craigslist, but this caught my eye...

...and one for @Abeyancer

Same. 8ft bed required.

 

Bumper is off in anticipation of other things

 

When I filled up the truck today, I noticed that the pump's auto-shutoff overfilled the tank just a bit. When it clicked off, some gas sloshed out of the fill neck. I've never noticed that happening before today.

I know that overfilling (especially manual "topping off") can foul the evap system/charcoal canister.

Is the pump's slow reaction to a full tank a possible sign of something wrong in the truck, or should I just find a different place to buy gas?

 

Welding a new bumper.

Requires pulling off the factory one, so I took the time to undo the aftermarket fog lights and random wires.

 

Click each one and you'll see pics posted in my thread. I'll be tacking all of it while on the vehicle, but will weld some on the vehicle and some off.

Yeah feel free to post in it! It's a fuckery thread in itself

 

Ooh whatcha planning on making?

 

That's how I feel about TIG welding.

I'm hoping to pile up some aluminum coupons, not to mention buying weld-it-yourself projects, and just focus on nothing but aluminum at the house.

After I get a good feel for things, I've got a project to finish for a member on here.

 

I'm glad I'm not part of it....but also its kinda funny to laugh at

I like how the first one is very clearly staged since how tf would you not notice a phone attached to the passenger door facing you directly

 

Is that a Milwaukee as well? I usually brute strength it with a set of these

 

Yeah their propress tool also has attachments now for electrical stuff

 

This is one a friend sent me.
I'm A-Okay with avoiding this level lol

Damn, too bad you're not nearby.

I get powder coating done at work for free, though I've only had small things done.

Using a spool gun on aluminum is way easier than doing TIG, if you're needing to get something done right away.

 

I got zero welding done this weekend. Didn't even unplug the dryer. Even if I wasn't depressed about the coolant puddle from my 04 both my roommates were washing/drying clothes all day.

Next rent house I'm going to ask the landlord if I can pay to have a 220 outlet installed in the garage.
