yeah, that'll do it

 

I don't know why auto parts stores even sell crimp lugs cause the average moron that walks in there to buy one just does shit like this that comes apart in your hand when you try to move the wire around haha



But I got her all fixed up fresh with the hydro crimper

 

Mil style clamps overrated?

 

Just didn't have any on my shelf. I had this stuff left over from another project. Mil clamps are nice, I like them for the trucks, I don't hook up much to the car though so this little ring should be bueno

 

What brand hydro crimper. I need to buy one. Using a die my dad made on a 6 ton arbor press can get annoyijgn

 

Just the hazard fraught one. The dies could be better sized to avoid the batwings but they still crush that shit so well it'll never come off. Had it for 4 years now and I haven't even blown a seal

 

Hmm. Maybe I’ll buy that then.

 

I love my hydraulic flare tool. I can make bubble flares, inverted flares, fuel line quick connects and gm transmission connectors

 

Jealous of the GM trans connections and fuel line connections. I never have to fight much with the basic bitch brake tool tho. Have you ever had to use that wonky tool that stretches plastic fuel line over metal barbs for repairs?

Yes I have it too. I repair fuel line by flaring it for quick connectors and run plastic line

 

Damn tool has made me tons of money. And plastic line don’t rot

 

Figured out why the Z doors rattled haha. Every clip was in wrong or broken. Got that fixed up proper now and put in some speakers and I'm working on the stereo now.

Old and new




Stereo puked out the dash

 

So my mother just called me to say that she found a bunch of savings bonds my grandmother bought for me when I was born, apparently they stopped accruing interest a few years ago. I had no idea.

"do you want them?"

Uhh yeah, lol

 

Mind PM’ing me the thread, or telling me how I can find it? Not sure what the name is.

 

Rest In Peace Crow, hardly knew ya.

 

I still have two bonds from when I was born too. Wonder how much they’re worth.

 

He get banned? Again?

 

Yep, perma too it looks like.

 

Perma. He made a duplicate account apparently. Big no-no for all forums and communities in general.
