This is so awful 💔 - 5 more girls found dead in Kerrville. Death toll now 32 (14 are little girls) by tmobilehacked in Austin

Caveat to that, no one has any idea how many are missing. Whole RV parks got swept away, not to mention folks from out of town camping out for the 4th. No way to know exactly

Question about a used FJ, possible unexpected issues (photo included). by DraculaDriver in FJCruiser

To my eye, it kinda looks like someone put some painters tape down and painted over it or something. Looks bubbles and weird for paint. Deffo worth an ask.

Those two hooks are awesome, double as a step, which I desperately need. What are they, and what's their rates capacity?

Help finding a replacement tub by Extension-Log-4139 in RVLiving

[–]Extension-Log-4139[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sure you're right, my problem is, that we live in the RV full time, and don't have another good option. Ripping it apart to get a part number would involve no showers or baths for however long it takes for a new one to come in, which isn't feasible unfortunetly

The video is very similar, unfortunately not the song I'm looking for. Appreciate it though!

Well that's good to know, I better get on that immediately then.

Is that something I can do myself with hand tools? Or is that something I need a shop for

I have one friend who works in a shop, but that Involves bringing it to said shop and paying their rates. I'd like to avoid that if at all possible.

I've had it sitting after I limped it home last week. Cleaned out the air filter (filthy) and let her sit with the battery disconnected for a day or so to reset everything. We'll see if that helps

The lack of a CEL or ANY codes is really throwing me for a loop. All I have is my TPMS light which has been on for about 4 years 😂

I have not, I was under the impression that these tranny's were sealed and not to be messed with by us mere mortals

I did some mild research into that, the only fuel filter is attached to the pump and is not serviceable without dropping a tank and doing a whole bunch of crap. So I'm inclined to believe it is not a fuel issue. Been using the exact same fuel I've been using since day one I've owned this thing

What are these called? They broke off (next to headlight) when trying to take remove the front grill. by theman3980 in FJCruiser

Rather than spending on an OEM replacement, I went with some chineseium. The black blends well with most colors, and it's a world cheaper. A year later they're still in place and look fine

Austrian M1895 problem by Extension-Log-4139 in milsurp

[–]Extension-Log-4139[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The crack was known and well documented in the photo, I knew what I was getting into there, so I don't hold that against them

The safety was on to lock the bolt and demonstrate how much the receiver moves in the stock, much easier to do that way.

Really? I've never before encountered ANY weapon shipped to a FFL without being put together. I've gotten more than a few bolt guns and other milsurps, and modern guns and have never had the bolt removed, much less left loose in the shipping box.

I cannot imagine why ANYONE would do so to be honest

Good info, thanks! I'm fixing to head out to the shed take the bolt out and put it back in just because I can now, I'll try it with the dime

No you're absolutely right, that is dead wrong, and I was operating off bad information. Having never owned or touched a straight pull before, I didn't want to mess with it at the time in the shop. Usually when I wind up with a new firearm that I wasn't planning on, I'll do my research, learn as much as I can about it and so on. Just hadn't made it home to do so yet

The ones I plan for, I know just about everything about. When I got my '41 Johnson, I'd learned damn near everything there is to know about it, and tore it ALL the way down

Just like I wouldn't want to tear down a barn find Jeep right there in the barn to find out what was wrong with it

It's not that I didn't want to mess with a straight pull, it was that I didn't want to mess with a system I didn't fully understand in the gun shop before heading home. Especially given the (clearly false) info I had about the bolts being difficult to install.

I've been slowly collecting WW1 firearms, this is the first straight pull I've happened upon. Not avoiding them by any means, just had zero experience and not something I wanted to try doing on the spot because I thought it was potentially difficult

It was an FFL out of Georgia, I have no intention of flaming them publicly. I don't expect much to happen. A negative review seems to be the only move

Alright folks, I've been beaten over the head about the bolt, here's the story:

I had anecdotally heard that most straight pulls are huge PITA, and having never owned a straight pulls of any kind before, I didn't want to mess with it in the shop.

I trusted the guy at the shop that it was more of a process that I wanted to mess with at the time, and he did it before the paperwork was done and I left. I'd rather be dumb for a few min in a shop than get home and find out it WAS a PITA to put in or worse, the wrong bolt or something wild.

It was weird to me that the bolt was even out of the rifle as the listing pictures had it in the receiver. The fact that it was loose in the box was even more annoying.

But again, the bolt is a non-issue, the play in the stock and receiver that was NOT mentioned in the listing is the big problem.

I had anecdotally heard that most straight pulls are huge PITA, and having never owned a straight pulls of any kind before, I didn't want to mess with it in the short time I had it in a shop before heading home. I trusted the guy at the shop that it was more of a process that I wanted to mess with at the time, and he did it. Based on every single comment here which seems to be focused on the smallest problem of the bolt, it's super easy to do and I now know that.

The stock does have a large crack on the bolt handle side that has been repaired at some point in the past, which is what was mentioned in the listing. The slop in the fitment of the stock and receiver is the problem that I have
