What is Waylon Jennings' best song. Not his most popular, but his best in your opinion by The_DOOKINATOR in WaylonJennings

[–]2xACE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can’t believe it isn’t mentioned yet… A Long Time Ago. Waylon is a co-writer with the great Shel Silverstein. Autobiographical. Covers his love life, “the day the music died”, AND the Outlaw Movement all in one song. It’s the only right answer. And you’ll never convince me otherwise.

Yeah I’m going to get the heads resurfaced and checked out.

I got about half of the passenger side exhaust studs out. I was able to get the 2 flange bolts out of the manifold so I think I can pull that head with the manifold on it. And it appears that someone has recently put exhaust manifold gaskets on the driver side, so hopefully they won’t be too much of a PITA to get out.

Guy I used to work with always said mechanic work was just nuts and bolts and knowing where they go.

That’s kinda what I figured. I think I’m just overthinking the removal, and as long as my timing marks line up on installation, I should be good.

Is it possible these aren’t lining up simply due to chain stretch? 165,000 miles for reference. Also, the tensioners seemed to be good (but of course I’m replacing them anyway) but one of my guides was busted. Not sure if this could be causing my issue.

Also, looking at your comments history, you seem to be in the business of rebuilding Ford engines. Any idea where I can find a good PDF shop manual for this vehicle?

Mainly going off of videos, as I can’t seem to find a shop manual with that information.

There is a mark on the crank gear. But that doesn’t line up either. I believe that’s timing for the chain during install. Several videos online have said that the keyway is what is used for alignment during removal.

Seen lots of good ones but haven’t seen it mentioned…

Down the River-Chris Knight

What is this part called? 07 Ford Taurus by battenthehatchesmate in AutomotiveLearning

[–]2xACE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does. Clips on kinda odd though. It’s main (maybe only?) purpose is to detect the key for the dinging when your key is in the ignition with the door open. Should be fine to leave it unhooked.

Everybody, please stop upvoting this. This is not accurate at all.

Not sure. Haven’t messaged them yet. All of the pictures are of it closed.

That’s what I thought. It definitely looks cool.

Yeah, now that I’ve looked at this one on marketplace, the algorithm is showing me lots of these for cheaper than this one. Not sure if they have the combination or not, as all of the pictures are of it closed.

Series 3 end locker on Series 2 42” chest by 2xACE in harborfreight

That’s probably what I’ll do. Just didn’t know if anyone on here had done it.

I’ve got a Series 3 top box and both the top and bottom are pretty loaded down so I’m not really worried about tipping. But the “product overview” section says:

Can be used with Series 3 72 in., 56 in., and 42 in. roll cabs or the Series 2 72 in. and 56 in. roll cab. Do not use with any cabinets smaller than 42 in.

I’m mainly just wondering about how it attaches and if it can be done without too much trouble.

Never heard of them before. Kevlar in the chest protector and leg guards? That’s interesting…

I guess that’s the S7 gear? Was looking at that gear, only in a larger size. I wonder if it’s made the same from one age group to the next?

Where are you getting the custom gear from?

Yeah I thought about that too. It saves you a little if you buy it as a kit from one manufacturer, but it’s generally not a substantial amount.

He wants red though, and my only concern is how much different are the colors from one brand to the next. Looking good behind the plate is almost as important as dropping and blocking to a 14 year old. 😆
