    comment Water found on Mars!

    What's wrong with all of the water here on Earth? Start looking for Martesian bottled water to hit store shelves this month.

    My trip.

    P.S. Let me give a shout out to dpantazis and crumm for some good info. And also mad props to BJS (Brandon) for giving me a call and giving me a little walk through on what needed to happen. I wouldn't have gotten the job done without you guys. You saved me a ton of money and if you...

    My trip.

    So the ride to Texas was pretty good. Nothing much to speak of there. Did some fishing there, caught up with a few friends and saw my sister get married. And before long it was time to put the stock wheels back on and head back to Charleston. I was getting 16.5 mpg hauling the boat so I...

    Help Needed Broken wheel studs

    There wasn't a gasket. It had a rubber O-ring similar to the one on the oil filter cap. I just shoved it all back in there and bolted it up. Did I miss something? I'll check for leaks for the next week but I think I'm going to be ok.

    Help Needed Broken wheel studs

    I already used a screwdriver to pry the "cover" off. As it turns out, there is an axle shaft hooked on there. Another thing that sucks is the 2 3/4" socket that a webpage said I needed isn't what I needed. I need the one with the four prongs on it. I don't know which so I'm going to buy all...

    Help Needed Broken wheel studs

    Do I need that puller to get the cover off. I took the eight bolts out and the cover moved about 1mm. I'm thinking that's what you meant because I don't know of any other way to get it out (without damage [hammer]). I'm going to the store again in a few minutes for that socket and a puller...

    Help Needed Broken wheel studs

    Ok, just got back from the store and they had to send for the socket. I should get it in an hour or so. I'm going to get some gear oil too. What are these seals you speak of? I'm going to look into it too. Thanks for the call and replies. Too bad nobody lives around here, its hot and...

    Help Needed Broken wheel studs

    HELP! I cant get four old, messed up wheel studs out of the hub and the new ones in. There isn't enough clearance from the hub and the e-brake. I took the bolts off of the e-brake assembly but there isn't anyway to move it around because I can't pull it out enough to get the bolts from the...

    Heading to Texas

    Just a round trip. I'm not out of the navy yet. My sister is getting hitched the weekend after Memorial Day Weekend. I took extra time off to make the trip worth the money spent (not that being at my sister's wedding wouldn't be worth it). Either way, I'll have plenty of time to get after...

    Heading to Texas

    Well I'll be starting my trip to Texas Thursday morning. Not a minute too soon, oil prices decided to get higher. At least I've saved up for this. And just an update, I did get the hub on my boat trailer repaired from a different shop. One of those mom and pop places for probably $200 less...

    Why I love my truck

    Big ol' diesel truck-2, piece of crap econobox-0. I say 2 because I caused a girl in a prius to roll up her window at a stop light. Then just to rub it in, I rolled some diesel smoke over the hood. I think that made my point.:sweet

    comment Top up your TANKS !

    For some reason I'm still able to get an unknown blend of bio for $3.75. It's been that price for a little over a month. I'm not sure when its going to go up but I do know that it will stay at least $0.20 cheaper than the other stuff. At least I've found one good reason for still being in the...

    Trading in gas guzzler may cost you

    I blow smoke in every "green" car when I get the chance. I wish I could get out of the truck and thank them for offsetting my carbon footprint.:sly

    Wasted fuel!

    I just spent the last two days running around trying to run errands and it seemed that everywhere I went, they didn't have what I needed or couldn't get to me that day. I left the house at 8:00 in the AM and by noon I had accomplished nothing. I don't have the money to be spending on fuel to...

    Gone Fishin'?

    I caught too many of these to count during this winter. Now that it is warming up the speckled trout (second pic) are back and it will be time to rip them out in the late evening with top water lures. Once I get the baitwell pump plumbing repaired the boat will be back in the water. If I put...

    Sakrete 101 - How many bags.

    I'm too tired to check your math but I will say that it wouldn't hurt to buy two or three more bags just in case. You can always take them back if you don't use them.

    If you give me a few days I can do some research on the material that the flash arrestors are made of on a submarine battery. I don't know for sure if it will say what it is in the battery tech manual but I'll take a look at it when I go back. We have them on every cell to prevent a hydrogen...

    water4fuel

    After digging around on youtube I learned two things: 1. The device used to split water is way too easy to make. 2. You don't have to pay that webpage however much they want for some plans on how to make it. I'm going to have to get a small Briggs and Stratton engine and try this out. Then...

    Sounds like you may be on to something here. Two materials that would probably work great and are very oxygen resistant are inconel and molybdenum. I wouldn't know for sure which alloy of inconel would be best though. The only other thing that I know is that they (molybdenum especially) are...

    Can you guys post picks of black lifted 05-07 trucks with blacks rims? Thanks

    Not only that but a Harley grill too. And black mirror front pieces and a ranchhand front and rear bumper and...I think that just about gets rid of all of the chrome. Oh, and some tint on the windows too. It's going to get murdered out as soon as I get the cash flow. Of course is does look...
