    I bought some stainless lines for my rear brakes after my lift....but I never needed them. Maybe one of these days I should install them... I just havnt gone beyond changing pads on a vehicle yet.

    I had issues trying to get the connectors on the frame side off so I just brought it to a shop and paid them $45 to change them out.

    I get so pissed waiting behind people in the left lane barely going the speed limit. Though I wonder if this would even help....

    My wife says ill be like those mall crawler trucks if I do this.... But I'm so tempted heh heh :D

    I'm fairly certain that drivers ed in WA is really training people to be pace car drivers.. Seriously.

    Just f'n pass me!!

    That and tailgaters. This state is by far the most horrendous one for that. Even worse than Rhode Island.

    If there is room to pass no worries, it's more when someone camps in the left lane going the same speed as the right or when there isn't anyone in the right lane. WA is still better than HI..... But not by much

    I was only living in NJ for 3 years and I can't shake the habit either lol I get so annoyed with campers as you call them. The worst is when there are cars across all lanes going the same speed.

    It's the left lane campers that really piss me off. I live up near Everett, and was working in Tacoma over the summer. A guy got in front of me in the left lane going a little faster than me, 75 or so. Then he slowed down, but never moved right. I went around him and he picked up speed to keep me from passing on the right.
    I frequently pass people from the middle lane as they don't move out of my left lane, then I cut them off moving back left.

    situation calls for the tactical deployment of my 6000k 55watt retro bright lights for a good 3 clicks at least... maybe reaching out to as much as 5 clicks

    Do you think you could fit everything under the hood of our trucks?

    My work van is a crappy ford e250 with dim headlights. I could probably drive with brights on full time and nobody would notice.

    I know a guy who actually put a train horn on his truck. He said it blasts something like 400 decibels and is technically illegal to sound.

    Look into stebel horns as well. They are a little louder. www.stebel.it

    My van does have the weight to bump people around, although it is rather top heavy with the extra rack on top. The only gun I have for work is a caulking gun. I wouldn't mind shooting fire stop putty on windshields. That stuff will smear, dry, and be a complete PITA to clean off.
