I have. I have also used a manual tire pump. I don't use either of those things anymore because newer and better things have come along. Bumper jacks can and do bend or scratch bumpers. Back when you could get a replacement bumper for fifty bucks, that was fine but try to find a shop to...

If you've ever taken these gauges apart, you'll wonder why you even trust them. They are extremely simple and from even a layman's view, they are merely "guidelines" as to what is going on. Tachometers are often notoriously slow so while you rev past 6000 rpms, the tach may show 5000, 5500...

Absolutely not an upgrade. Easier? Yeah but the load carrying capability is much lower than stock. Please, no. Where are you going to find a bearing that does not need the inner seal? You'd need to cut off the axle ends and weld in a different type to make this change...a radical change...

What an idiot!

David Mann, with the new Satellite he bought to replace the Valiant that was wrecked by a rogue trucker. ( Dennis Weaver )

Portland cement is a brand of actual "glue/adhesive/bonding agent". I didn't know that they also marketed their own brand of ready mix concrete. This term is as bastardized as Hot water heater and I could care less.

If I could get you to drive this far, I could let you practice on tires I have here. I have a tire mounting machine and several junk tires. For years I have plugged holes in my cars and trucks. Construction and nails goes together like fat chicks and a bucket of fried chicken. I bought a tire...

My hesitation to use the bumper jack is based on the cost to straighten an original bumper!

Oooof. I've been there. Hopefully, I fixed that problem.

Ignorant Americans use the term cement to describe concrete. It pisses me off every time that I hear them say it. I dropped the bucket on the cement. Oh really? Is it stuck there now? Cement is a glue, a bonding agent don't you know ? In my circle of wood framers, we called dimensionally large...

I parted out a 2004 Camry and decided to repurpose the scissor jack. (Dwayne's Plymouth is in the background here) I reinforced the pad.... Then using a rubber donut for a pad... No scratches to the underside... Now, I would not use this on any inclined surfaces for risk of the...

I agree. I carried a small trolley type floor jack for years but then took a scissor jack from a 2004 Camry that I cut up and welded a small pad to it. It weighs 7 lbs and works fine. I used it at the Air Tel in 2024 when a low speed bump knocked my left tailpipe loose from the muffler. For the...

Coronet on the right, beat up Valiant on the left:

The trip to the city (Las Vegas?) did have some cars newer than the show's timeline but I let that slide.

Driving from the right side of the car would be weird but then trying to shift with my left hand would take weird to the next level.

OR you turn the battery around and then it fits just fine.

Well THAT clears that up. I've read the "washing machine" reference a few times but didn't know what you guys meant. Thank you.

After Ozzy, I read someone write Holk Hogan is next" as if he were ailing and fading. RIP, Terry.
