    They had combustion engines back then Ding ??...:p

    Honestly tho' Ecology & Pik-a-part don't really keep track of eventory on anything that comes into it's yard, you pay $2 to get in but you'll save more than 50% over all the other yards for your parts , so they don't care how many peeps w/tools are crawling thru their shit I suspect...


    & I'm back again Leo . & thanks again buddy !!:)

    Now I gotta getr with a couple customers that were left flapping in the wind when my innerwebz disappeared.....:eek:

    Pull a part here makes you sign a waiver that you are sound mind and body and you hold them harmless should you get hurt or worse die. While getting parts. But like when I went. I was trying to break a leaf spring loose from a flatbed ford and while doing so I was lifting the whole back end up pulling on my breaker bar. The guys there came and held it on the ground with a fork lift so it wouldn't fall on me. Then kept joking around about me being determined enough the fork lift was the next to come off the ground and one guy was saying he had 5.00 that I broke the bolt off......ass hole made 15.00. And I lost a nice ass leaf pack.

    Wait.. So you snapped the bolt (leaf end to spring perch?

    I pay $75/set for mine. Pick out which ones I want, then they remove them from the truck in about 5 mins.. I'm free to roam around, as long as I don't have a backpack or tools.

    Haha, no he's an unsecured connection, so when they're home its no issue, but they DO travel alot these days.

    I always pick up a couple "un-secured" networks everytime i scan, but they're routed thru CISCO & i don't know the password(s)

    anyone know a generic password or a working guest password for CISCO connect ?? PM's accepted....

    Finally got my angle grinder and cut off wheels. I think I did pretty good. Better then how they were before. Painting them right now and hopefully they will go on tomorrow. Just need to get some center pins just in case the current ones are rusted.

    Truck looks really good Logan.



    My guess is when the cost of living drops to semi-affordable, or he gets a job that pays like a doctors or scientists, but rumor has it his tacoma will be part jeep in the next few years :spy:
