They sure can design a car, but have no clue what a 10mm bolt is!

That survey look like an easy one from the office. Its all flat.
Sure. The map is flat.

We make the world work. No one understands except us blue collar guys.

Have you seen the new Broncos? Apparently the coolant temp sensor is in the valley pan. Remove intake and exhaust manifold. Then some frontal accessories because the timing cover has to come off to get the intake off. But the oil pickup tube stops you. Remove pan. But wait there more. The steering rack is in the way....

Whenever I had to talk to an engineer I always made sure to solve the problem first. It limited my exposure to their idiocy. But on another note it was so easy to screw with them.

Kinda like the monkey hierarchy.

The monkeys in the trees look down and see a bunch of smiling faces.

The monkeys on the ground look up and see a bunch of ash holes.

Any of you guys have one of these?
I got one today while I was in the big city.
Hand held media blaster.
How disappointed am I gonna be?



I also was looking at the pressure washer attachment but it just seems a lot messier.

Also vs

Also View attachment 159657 vs View attachment 159658

Neither one of those would make a good road!

Installing the rear cat on a 3.2, don't recommend. Not very fun.

Glad I dont live in a mandated state.
Those usually get removed voluntarily.

I have one, it is ok on small jobs. I built a blasting cabinet years ago from scratch large enough to fit a mini bike frame, etc in. Used a bunch and then it sat for a while. Sold it because of space issues in the garage and regret it every time I need to blast something.

My dad has a cabinet in the shop but I can't get the frame in it. Figured it would be OK for this project.

Just have to refill it a lot that’s all.

Thats not an issue. You see where I live? Sand is abundant.

 

[Grizzlymi]

It will work fine, especially in your yard! My biggest problem with it is the mess it makes. Your whole yard is a blasting cabinet.

 

[Denny]

He gets silicosis just walking out his front door like me. I live on a beach, but there’s no water around.

 

[Grizzlymi]

Yep, even with my homemade blasting cabinet, I still wore a respirator.

Having a productive day tomorrow. Have a 2015 Grand Cherokee doing the following:

Cutting front and rear brake rotors, rotors are very warped.

New 845 transmission pan and service. Plastic pan is leaking because they do that. The filter is integral to the pan, so that gets replaced at the same time. Then refilling with new 8/9 speed fluid, which is like $32 per quart.

Then doing a coolant service. Previous owners, in their infinite wisdom decided to top off the radiator and overflow bottle with green coolant. This coolant cannot be mixed with MOPAR 10 year. It will break down and cause a sludge in the whole cooling system. So doing a BG coolant flush. Hopefully it will get most if not all of the universal from the system.

Radiator is leaking (shocker ) but sales declined. Tires have inner edge wear and cupping. Sales declined balance, rotate, and alignment.
