    Bolt and Small Part Black Oxide Finish.

    I think I used Tremclad oil based clear. I wire wheel the fasteners, then soak/brush them in Rubbing Alcohol to remove all the grease/oils. Then toss them in the Oxide. I use pliers to remove them, dry them immediately with compressed air, them spray them.

    I learned me something today about torque-to-yield bolts.

    Why build in what will be a failure point for DYI'rs and untrained/unknowing mechanics? Most cars are built without torque-to-yield bolts on the calipers and they function just fine. What benefit of using these bolts outweighs the risk of bolt failure when they fail to get replaced? It's a...

    Yes, another 1 Wire alternator thread

    We have had dozens and dozens of issues with Powermaster alternators and starters every year. It is almost never their fault. It is always consumers/installers fault. I have heard everything from them from too much draw, bad ground, to they determined that an engine must have back fired taking...

    Hose reel

    I'm a rookie (1st water reel) so will find out. Plan to bring mine in during the winter, it's not exactly lightweight. At my age, three-years into the future being still able seems like a hope and a blessing, lol.

    Robert Redford won't be down for breakfast

    Was a great actor, director, producer, king of cool looks. Some outstanding movies. Sure made his mark with Sundance. Had it all; though not entirely, lost two children. He was a self-deprecating sort, actually said his looks could be a handicap, lol, some people have larger problems. Living...

    Do YOU go 3 or more days between showers ???

    ...the 20th century as a lot of people think it was. Anyway, for me, a minimum of three times per day; and up to five during the hot months. *** I run across stinking/seeking people every week here in Georgia. Typically, the people (any age, but usually older) that come in from the...

    Mopar racers big race of the year at Norwalk

    most of my lights were around.050-.060. That last round the launch rpm got away from me, I was shooting for 4500 and I think it was closer to 5k. I think that’s why my RT was so low, although I was trying to kill it too. That’s why I thought I was going too fast at the stripe.

    Hose reel

    I've had terrible luck with water hose reels. They seem to last about 1.5 years no matter the brand or quality. I think it has something to do with the way Florida is very unfriendly to rubber and plastic, especially if stored outdoors. What normally happens is the pivot and connection from the...
