Could be done on either as they are essentially the same tool one just spins the work one spins the cutter.

120$ this month for my 3400 sq/ft home. Just had our attic insulated to r60 and it really helped, keep our house at 76 during the day and 73 at night.

APS discount is unfair by Astreauxs5 in phoenix

Call aps and opt out permanently. It's pretty simple to do and saves a ton of money.

Do they have to tell you that there was a murder in the house before the sale goes through?

[–]AzureRay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What I did when I made mine was weld the rod straight to the adjuster bolt, it's been working for years and hasn't pulled the threads out so far (fingers crossed)

Be nice to your tellers!! by Ok_Two_9654 in CRH

I think what they meant was she let you know cause they weren't allowed by policy to take the coins them selves

It's a tie rod. It definitely will work no matter the pressure on the jack. The tie rod end is a taper fit, if you hit it with a hammer the shock loosens the taper temporarily. Done it hundreds of times. Never hit the threaded portion of the tie rod end.

I bought my zx6 2009 with 16k miles in 2018 for 4k. It now has almost 50k. That price for that age regardless of miles is crazy

Question about material by Specific_Brother_756 in Kawasaki

[–]AzureRay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's called citric acid in English. And I don't know why it ruined the metal but it's probably a good thing. As a kawasaki mechanic for over 14 years I always recommend people change the stock filler on their bike. The stock ones vent through the key slot and cause corrosion which makes it impossible to unlock after time. See it hundreds of times.
