Hey folks, I'm in the process of fixing up our shop truck and I got to thinking.... Are on board air systems still viable? With how good the cordless tools are it won't be running air ratchets, I'm not going rock crawling, so why even have on board air? Not gonna lie, I just kinda want it but...

Any one familiar with the hydroboost system please chime in here. Is this system just not capable of pushing 37-12.5-16.5 tires? I swear this is the second Hydro boost system that just won't push the tires. What is the issue here?

Hey folks. I'm looking to replace the engine our 2004 2500HD ram. It has over 300,000 miles and recently it over heated and spit coolant out the rear of the block. We just put a new Trans in like 500 miles ago and the truck is important to me so I'm thinking, let's just throw a new...

That is the plan... 20 pounds of boost 27 pounds of fuel pressure. The limits on space will hurt but we will do our best. I'm kinda doubtful but in the end the Dyno will tell. I said I was done but I swear this is the last one.

My buddy made a funny observation the other day. When the part says "Universal" what it actually means is, "This part mostly fits Chevys but sometimes if your lucky or good it can half *** be made to fit something else." I'm still smiling over that one. :rofl:

I would REALLY enjoy getting to see these in person and take a good hard look at how they work and what makes them "tick". That would just about be the best beach day ever. Some cold beers, a surf rod and these things cruzing around... Enjoy.

This was probably the first thing to trigger my obsession with vintage fishing gear. The funny thing is, as much as I love it. I never looked super close at it. Turns out it is brass or something so.. Gonna clean her up a bit. Im not sure if I will bother putting her on the buffing...

The other day i was watching some documentary on something or other about deep ocean stuff. They show the obligatory shot of the ROV touch down and silt plumes up around the machine. We've all seen it. So pressure vs density? Here is an excerpt from the wiki page on the Marinas trench...

My neighbor moved to North Carolina and for obvious reasons decided to not take this with him. I have other weights that I enjoy working with but dam. This thing is a monster. Just to pick it up, I need to center my self. You dont casually just pick this up. (Well, I sure as **** dont) I...

Two very well respected companys. Both made in the USA. Eh.... someone copied their Homework and forgot to change a few answers... I almost wanna call Microtech and ask if they worked with Streamlight or vice versa because no way this is random... The teal one is my Microtech, Ultratech...

I have know about this car for a while now. It was at a buddys shop but i never asked about it. I just admired it from afar. I mean its not like he was just gonna be like "oh yeah, that car... take it..".. so I just kept quiet and mind my own business. Well today was the day. I show up at...

Hey folks! I got tasked with bringing a old Dodge Brothers truck back to life! Im not sure what year it is but the manual says 1941-47 and seems to be the right manual. The door tag is in place (two of them in fact). Of course I forgot to take a pic of the door tag but I can get it later if...

Sure he did... everyone owns one. They say Honda on them and sport a large wing with tow hooks right? But sometimes they did or do own cool cars. Case in point. My new friends mom mentioned her brother owned a race car and that they enjoyed racing. We had a nice conversation and parted ways...

Roasted pumpkin seeds! I love em. The smell when baking them, snacking on them while watching cheesey horror movies is second to none in my book.

Miller welders that is. My millermatic 210 MIG has been acting up and as I am self employed it is my sole source of income. I watched some u tube videos and did some google searches to figure it out and was able to determine the "contactor" had given up. I bought a new one ($100.00 bucks) and...

When I bought the van it had an old Rosary in it. It was the only piece of the previous owners trash I kept in the van. The other day i was driving along and the sun visor swung down and ripped the Rosary off its home, breaking the string. I tossed the broken parts in the cup holder and...

For once i will not be blowing a car all apart. I decided to unbox everything and bolt it on the car. This way i will know what i have, what is missing and what is broken. The front bumper was way to far gone to save so out came the DA and now its black. Also cleaned up the hood and primed it...
