60+ year old thread.

LOL I can relate. I brought an iPod3 for my wife as a birthday present. It is to be delivered tomorrow as well.

What cover did you finally end up purchasing? There are a lot of nice covers out there for the Tacoma. A lot nicer than a snap on cover I had on a 79 Dodge D50.


Well here is a quick pick of the headlight trim ring all painted up.



This next pic is the reflector bowl with the projectors mounted back in the headlight housing. I am thinking of putting this assembly in the Tacoma and aligning the headlights. If I am too far off with the rotation it will not be a super PITA to fix properly.

 

evening all: headlight project looking good!

thought we had a deserter on our hands, but she's back. hi sue

 

Nice setup on the back of the Tacoma Susan...I didn't get to do any biking last season due to the shoulder surgery, but expect to hit the trails soon...Got a Mongoose a few years back from my son who was trash..(.oops treasure hunting)..picking and found the bike with a bent rear wheel. took it to Sports Authority and got a new wheel installed for $10.00...been using the bike ever since...

 

Hi Paul...post a pic or two after you get the cover on...

 

You old people need to have little bells and id tags around your necks, so you don't get too far away from your home. Just dealt with one who thought she was in Louisiana and was screaming at me to take her home. She told me that it was my job to know where she lived.

 

Hey Curt...be kind to us old folk...was she drunk or did she have mental issues? or did she see that cellur company commercial where the woman gets in the squad car thinking it's a cab cause she's so busy talking on her cell and expects you to drive her home...LOL...Ken

 

looks good man!

 

lol.

 

i need to get a best top.

i’m waiting on my lifeproof iphone case. ordered last night. can’t wait for it to be water proof to 6.6FT and dust and shock protected. been wanting one for a bit now. old cheap case broke.

 

Did she offer to buy if you stopped by Duncan on the way to her home?

It would be the least she could do.

Us old folks what can you do, against the law to shoot us.

 

Alzheimer's...it's a bitch.
Finally got it srted out after the Amberlamps took her away. Son called in looking for her. I got all the necessary information logged in under our Names Table with alerts up the yin yang on her. That way we can take her home if she get's out again.

 

Nice job Kurt!!!

You are right Alzheimer's is very mutch a bitch.

 

morning all: just got done "TRYING" to post what I did to the boat, on tinboats.net. when I tried to download the pics., it said file size too big. something I got to figure out again, but I'll get there.
alot of the stuff I did, and the way I did it, is different from how the others added the mods. to their jon boats.
I should post a pic. of our river anchor. my buddy designed it. it looks like a pyramid and weighs 18#. seems to be a really good anchor for the river. I never saw an anchor like this, all I know is that it works.

 

Is tinboats.net getting the photo from your computer or a site like Photobucket. Photobucket auto resizes for posting on forums. If it is from your computer you may have to resize the photo file using Microsoft Office Picture Manager.

 

photos are from file in computer. what it's doing, I think, is downloading the whole file. I only want 1 pic at a time, to add to each post. I can do it here but can't seem to do it there, YET!!!

 

Carl:
Each picture is 1 file. Most likley a .jpg file. That file needs to be resized smaller using the MS application.

 

OK; will try later. thanks

 

Sorry I'm a day late here...the paperwork wasn't in the glove box...found it in my "files" on the shelf above my work bench in the garage.

I think I broke the code:
I have kit #2407 applicable to 2005 thru 2011 4x4 or PreRunner 4x2.

The kit #2410 is for a 4x2 (Non-PreRunner); which makes sense because the PreRunner is (basically) a 4x4 suspension on a 4x2 truck; in very simple terms. I'm sure some on here could explain the differences more dramatically; but that's my explanation.

These are the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs.

In the best words of Ralphie from A Christmas Story.....Fuuuuuudge!!!

Working on the trailer hitch - have to remove two bolts from the frame - the one on the right side is frozen and started to strip. I guess I'll have to take it to the garage to get them to loosen it for me, then replace it.

The process is easy if the bolts aren't frozen. I got the left side off with a little time and WD40. Not so lucky with the right.
