New England B.S. Thread

I was hoping the thick layer of grime and dirt would do the same thing I'll let you know how it turned out tomorrow.

 

I have mud on the roof of my truck

 

Got my ego boost for the day when this whippersnapper says "Is that your truck" n ' I say "Yup " n' he says "That thing is sick !"

 

Lol nice work bet ya had fun putting it there

 

Rob, thank you for prices...now to get my $hit together for that trip..


I too am getting ready for New England salt....driving 1300+ miles south until it is all gone...

 

Freakin dogs eating me out of house n' home

 

One of my cats is on the KD (kidney diet) food. $21 for a 4 pound bag of dry food, $2 for a can.

Years ago one of my other cats was on this stuff. She was a 6 pound fuzzball and I always used to say at least I don't have to feed Precious (the Maine coon of nearly 20 pounds) this stuff. Me and my big mouth!

 

Maine coon cats are awesome! Neighbor has one its a tough bastard to. It beat up a coyote trying to eat it.

 

Well shit, I climbed off the roof and into my truck and have a delightful new hum on the drivers side. Wheel bearing shitting out at 27k. Guess they'll have to replace that this week when they do the cv boot.

 

Many years ago someone tried to break into my wife's apartment. She didn't think much of it, came home to a plant knocked over and him acting weird. 2 days later she saw the guy who lived downstairs and his face was cut to shit. That's when she figured out that he must have tried to break in and the cat sliced him up before he could get in the window

 

It probably will. Hope you cleaned all the grease and grime off the frame before all the work you did to it though.

 

Hopefully the wire wheel he used took care of that.

 

My wire wheels don't seem to last too long and/or work effectively.

 

What the hell does this "grease & grime" stuff look like ???? Am I supposed to have that on my frame .....

Even my "New to me" frame gets touched up after every service and now that my plans have solidified the Tacoma might get pampered like the Lexus and get a full blown detail before winter....

Knowing the guy that owns www.autospanh.com helps too...

Very interesting good sir

 

Great. Thanks again

 

I did. I wiped it down with mineral spirits to get the grime off that the wire wheel left behind.

I used one of those wire cups, I find them to be much more effective for the frame. I didn't want to go to bare metal, just remove the flaking stuff. If there was any sound paint left, I didn't want to remove it.

 

I went bare metal on my axle and it looks new. I like using my DA sander on the flat surfaces. Makes it look new!

 

Working Sundays blows . Only good thing about it is no traffic and it's double time. I'm ready to go home .
