    Well thankfully Mike pointed out a very important fact about steel and aluminum that I was not aware of so, there has been a slight change of plans. Saves me some $$$ in the end:

    Then again, save the tires while you're at it..just pick it up and throw it in the bed of the Tacoma!

    The ring..eh, it's not for everyone. That said I never thought I'd get married and I did.

    Yes I noticed the jersey..was that a softball team or something too?

    You can still paint it blue and sexy :D

    It happens all the time with aluminum wheels against the steel hubs which is the reason for using neverseize on the hub when you rotate your tires. Even with steel, take it out once in a while to make sure it doesn't rust to the receiver but it won't be as bad as the aluminum.

    Well the sliders are on but I suck at posting pics. I will try later to post up. I have to pick up a couple of clips for the brake lines, they broke when moving the lines to tighten the hardware. I would have relocated them anyways I dont want any rubbing

    Damn Denis, spend enough money? You doing the compressor/gear install yourself? Take good notes - maybe I'll do the same one of these days.

    Another option is mount the compressor in the bumper that's where mine is. Protected and out of the way

    billy, if you have the photobucket app on your phone you can import images from the library there, into photobucket, then copy the image link and paste that into tw.

    hope that's helpful.

    side note, i use this on my ipad and it works. it should work for apple phones, however i don't know if it works the same on different devices.

    For some reason one of my partners dubbed me the 'Pecka Wrecka' (insert angel face) so another one of my co-workers had her mom make me a hockey jersey with my number and that on the back to wear to my pick up games.

    Thanks again for all the useful info!

    Pretty much. If you haven't noticed yet, I'm a little obsessed with the number 35.

    Got it back today. They had to rebuild the carb AGAIN. They said there was fuel still in the bowl.

    It is an Ariens ST420, from what I can find it's at least 20 years old. The reason for fuel in the bowl is that even though I ran it dry there's still some in there, there is a button I need to press on the bottom of the carb to drain it.

    Mind you they just installed that button now. It wasn't there initially nor did they the first time they rebuilt the carb.

    $150..hey Morgan Power Equipment in Halifax MA, GFY!

    Wow $150 . I'm in the wrong business .
    At least you got it up and running again . Put some sta-bil in it . Comes in a red jug . Any auto place will have it . You shouldn't need a lot . Just a small jug should treat your fuel system a few times .
