    Yeah, black truck is about to get sold for cash. That will happen at the bank, they have a notary, will check the cash for me and put it in my account. And if shit gets real crazy, there’s an armed guard.

    This is a really simple fix, disconnect the battery and do one wire at a time. Alternate the lengths of each one so you don’t have a bunch of butt connectors in one spot so that the loom will fit back over the wire and it will look professional. Use high quality butt connectors and heat shrink separate, don’t use the butt connectors with adhesive heat shrink on them as they won’t be as soft and pliable. I redid an entire engine wiring harness for a customer of mine that had some serious wiring and electrical issues. I started with one wire traced it until the wire was good and spliced a new wire in. That was hundreds of wires and I’m no electrical expert but I bought high quality made in USA tools, and I tested every single connection I did and didn’t have a single problem.

    Most people who carry, carry all the time. Not just when doing random Craigslist transactions. Darkness doesn’t exactly let you know when it’s coming, it just shows up, even at the grocery store

    I had to extend one of the rear radar parking sensors for my CBI rear bumper by solder each of the 10 million hair thin wires, insulating , and adding more conduit . It sucked , I should have just let it dangling and dragging on the street like it was if I knew how much work was involved lol
