1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Fixing the wife's santa fe, swapping control Arma due to ball joint wear. Do I do these torque with the vehicle on the ground or can I use a jack to press up on the control arm until the spring compresses?

 

Either one is acceptable. I usually use the jack to just before the car lifts

 

Same poison. if I remember correctly cub Casey it owned by yard machines which was bought by husqvarna but left alone to operate as normal. I'd go for the husq just cause there are usually more husq dealers around compared to cub cadet

 

Only because it doesn't specify, I'd just torque to spec when installed.

 

Cool, I'm using a "be your own mechanic" garage, rent a bay for 50 an hour with full toolbox and 2 post lift.. this lift is fucking life saving lol

 

LESS POSTING MORE WORKING

TIME IS MONEY

 

Smoke break to look up torque specs


Back to it!

 

Which one is that, I'm acquaintances with a guy that owns a few of those on the west side. I talked to him about starting a similar thing here.

 

Stews garage, they just opened a new location in auburn at an old trans shop

 

We had some nice cruisers today at Rigs and Coffee.

No limburger style cheese in stock that I can see, but I did just text my wife if she can bring me some Blue or Brie cheese

All this talk got me craving some

 

Searching for some missing parts I need rn

Came across a 07-11 2.4 Camry alternator. It just randomly stopped working properly 2-3 years ago when that car was at 120K and I tossed a new OEM in it.

Hate to throw it in the scrap pile since it might be rebuildable. But I don’t own that car anymore. I’m a hoarder and need to stop.

Fun fact:

Lays sour cream and onion chips have enough onion powder in them to make dogs nauseous in just a couple chips.

Glad she started feeling better before we got called into the vets office and gave them $300 to tell me to wait it out.

Didnt know onions were toxic to dogs, let alone onion flavored chips.

 

Now you just gotta wait for the noxious farts haha.

 

Good to know!

 

Thinking I may do away with the 'beige' case for awhile for my new-old PC

I'll use my current Fractal case for the E8400 build, and buy a new case for the 12400 build.

I'll just have an extra 6700K setup put away for a backup.

 

Cub Cadet is now owned by MTD (the maker of Yard Machines). MTD was private/family-owned until a year ago, when it was acquired by Stanley Black and Decker.

Does that change anything for you?

Sour cream and onion dog farts

We're heading out in a bit to look at this girl

Wifes met up with a few ones we've been interested in so far, but these rescues are very hesitant to let people adopt bigger dogs with small children in the family.

 

Looks like a certified pre-owned good girl
