Calling all Virginians (Tidewater area)

does anyone have a timing light? and the mechanical incline to do a timing chain on a 22re?

 

i didnt think i was puttin that much torque on it. its the top bolt of the a/c compressor. have to remove that bold for a bracket to attach there to go to the ss/c tensioner pulley

 

Lol had a soldier tell me that the other day with a engine stud for wire harness. Really thought he was loosening it.

 

hah, i wasnt loosening it. just over tightened. and how do u not know which way to tighten and loosen bolts?

 

Hahaha you mad ryan

 

So defensive! I didnt mean you was doing it wrong, I was showing his lack skills I get to deal with.

 

oh i know. i got what u were saying. i jsut wanted to make sure that i wasnt tryin to loosen the bolt when i snapped it. i was just tryin to make sure it was snug. just had to much torque down low on the ratchet handle. i was sayin i cant believe how someone that works on vehicles like in ur soldiers case doesnt know how to loosen and tighten bolts in the correct direction

 

i wasnt mad at all with what steve was sayin and i wasnt defensive. just makin sure yall understood i wasnt tryin to loosening a bolt in the tightening direction. but way to jump to a conclusion on me gettin mad when i wasnt at all.

 

That's alright ryan. I did that on Sunday when I was installing those lights. I was pissed. It just needed thaaaaat much more. Then SNAP!

 

I pokin at u. But my guy really thought he was loosing it and just kept tightening didnt seem to think how hard it was getting. We gets to pull and replace engine tomorrow, with 6 days to tear the old one down and up before time to turn it in. 5 yrs and finally get to do my job right. Hence the pimp new avatar.

 

Dont you hate that? same here.

 

Yes but 15 more and retirement so I like the sounds of it. What is your job? What is everyone's job. I know ryan's. Linwoods is um signal , dont deny it.

Normally I'm a firefighter for da squids. But I took a corrections job temporarily

while installing my lift this weekend we forgot to put the shims that come with the toytec ULK under the AAL...i spoke with the toytec guy and he said the purpose is to align the axle with the carrier bearing to prevent or minimize any rear end vibration...i dont really have any now should i worry about getting those shims in?

 

I don't have teh shims....no vibes mang.

 

You have a long bed. I may think about it if I were you. I am thinking about it. I got the shimmy shakin rear end. (DCLB)
