For Stock Rigs Only

So the $40 Hobo Fright bike rack was well constructed for the price. Unfortunately it works best with traditional tube frame bikes. Didn't really work with ours.....as some of the reviews warned. So I returned it.

Found a Hyper Tough (Walmart's brand) for $89. Still a bargain for this type of rack. Rather than hang from the frame, the bikes sit in wheel baskets. Works well.





Folded.....though I have no plans to run on the car when not in use.

That damn transmission allen drain plug on the Yaris stripped out on me. Had to snag a new one from the dealer this morning. Getting the old one off was a real joy. But I got it and changed the juice. But while I was at the dealer (which is rare) I stocked up on filters, since they're cheap. No Fram for awhile.

 

God love ya..

ROFLMAO.

IF I thought the plug would strip I’d use vice grips at the same time.
Those plugs suck…

 

I tried vice grips. Just not enough shoulder on the bolt and a bit too recessed as well. I was finally able to hammer in a #60 torx bit and break it loose.

Not sure what the deal was. I've had it out a few times over the years. Never torqued it more than 30 lbs. Those allen heads seem to gunk up over time and get a little fragile. Oh well. She's good now.

This what I have to say to it.

At least it was less than $3.

Lies


i rest my case. Lol

 

My yearly trip to the dealer at $5 a piece.....that's all

 

Necessity is the mother of invention. Got sick of wrestling the auger around every time we remove it (awkward af). Stole a cylinder lift from work that we dont use/want and bam, rolling auger storage. Will weld a proper mount up this winter when I give more of a shit but at least the damned thing is off the tractor and mobile.

That is awkward. Nice solution.

 

Would you believe me?

 

Goes double for you..

 

You Test Me….

 

Can't argue with that.

Wait... what? Did you just post something, Mark?

 

It's pretty close. My calculations showed 139.997

 

She won’t believe you.
She’s still tired.
You know what that does to her social skills.

 

She'll believe me

 

Pfffft
