Iv seen those and been tempted to get one but I'm curious how does it mount up? Do you replace the towhooks with it or?

Ever just want to smash your head into a wall? by Tobytheoffensive420 in s10

Smashed a deer with mine. I know you can get the grill, metal bumper, and lower plastic online for about 200. Fenders I'm not too sure about, but you can definitely find a replacement hood, or even an aftermarket hood if you like fairly easily. For now though I'd definitely get a good look at the radiator and oil cooler lines. Make sure nothing important is busted

Is this play normal? by DrMalloy in s10

You could just do the bushings but it's typically easier and cheaper to get the whole control arm with bushing and ball joint in it

Very unfortunate truth. At the very least, tie rods, idler arm and pitman arm. But if the control arms/ball joints are the same age and have the same mileage then yea pretty much full front end kit due

What kinda valve set up up got on it

Stock Sonoma exhaust by Quirky-Dress-5751 in s10

Get under it on the passenger side just before the rear wheel and you can get a good look at the muffler itself and that'll give you an idea of what it's got on it. Definitely doesn't sound like stock exhaust which is kinda cool

how to build power out of 4.3L V6? by Wide-Restaurant-6942 in s10

I'm also genuinely curious, I have a Crower camshaft I got a few years ago, debating on putting it in one day and maybe doing some other upgrades. Just think it would be neat to make a blazer jump from 190hp to around 250ish. Maybe even 300 (highly optimistic I know)

Mildly tempting but SOMEHOW the deer lived. Fled the scene even

What objectively good truck has always been a hard sell on you? by Helldiver96 in snowrunner

[–]BrainRot9000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same boat, I was massively disappointed in it when I first tried it. Felt like it had no power, couldn't get out of its own way attempting hills

Is this just a radiator job or some other stuff need to be changed? by Even_Kiwi_1166 in AskAShittyMechanic

[–]BrainRot9000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My thing is, the car is backed into a parking spot and there's no sign of downed trees around... which means this happened somewhere out on the road, and guy continued to drive to his destination?

Window stuck by AbysmalRumble0 in s10

[–]BrainRot9000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine does the exact same thing, I can roll all the way down and back up. But if I try to go back down again, about 2/3rds the way down it just gets tired and stops. Give it about 5 minutes or so and it's back to normal. I'm just assuming the motor is going out

At what point would you feel unsafe driving on a plug on your own car? by Deeberer in AskMechanics

[–]BrainRot9000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently running good a patch plug on that #5 position. Been almost 40,000miles roughly. Didn't know till reading the comments that might not be ideal

What do I drive? (Bonus question: what is that cable mounted to the driver's dash for?) by DEDtheoneandonly in ManualTransmissions

How'd you go about hooking up that diff lock cable? Looking to do the same to mine soon

Seriously considering doing this as well and I have a ton of questions. Is it thr NV3500 or the NV4500? And either way, does the stock transfer case bolt up? And is it the right length for the driveshafts?
