Yup, I'd own it

 

Poor photoshop

 

So, with new hydro assist lines, proper reservoir that prevents cavitation and a rebuilt ram the crawler steering works great.

Pump didn't make a single noise on a test drive and it didn't puke any fluid or make any foam in the reservoir. Drives nice and straight now lol

 

Fuck yeah, one check in the box from the list.

That's way better than a lot of us at the moment. Motivated to do more?

 

Gf: “so I’ve got this clunk in the front end of my car…”

Trust in mechanics -1

 

I was gonna take a break and walk the dogs but the wind really kicked up and I'm hiding inside. I might start cutting the brackets off this new axle or work on the jeep some if the wind dies down

 

Sus

 

Upper arm bolt loose? That would be no fun if it backed out completely

 

Yup. All four of them. Gonna give them a chance to make it right - bushings looks like they might be chewed up.

 

Maybe I should get a spool gun. At least it shouldn’t get worse now…

 

Yikes


More and more I find that mechanics fuck it up all the same, they just have the ability to fix it more timely than I could and probably have nicer tools

 

Ya. QC is nonexistent, which is pretty bad considering what’s at stake and how much they charge these days. New uca bushings and end links were upward of $2k and they didn’t even tighten the bolts? Sheesh.

 

Let there be light.


Also got everything wired up for two wall sconces in the living room.

 

Drilled relief hole at the end of the crack? Someone's band-aided broken aluminum before

For the minimal amount I have to TIG anything, spool guns are the best. But I've already told you that before

 

Those rafters look like there's not enough wood :/

I need to call the roofers this week as I discovered that the fix and flippers put new shingles over rotted decking thats around the chimney.

 

Only took me 2 years to finally wire this up.
