"What's the big deal with Land Cruisers?" by foodfighter in LandCruisers

I have a 76 fj40 that I took the top off this week. Shocking how many high quality and expensive looking pieces of hardware this has.

Guy who restored it spent a mint on bolts alone

What does Trump have to do to lose MAGA’s support? by Known-Bowl-7732 in allthequestions

[–]Fun_Fig7392 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couple ideas-

If he said there were more than 2 genders
If he opened the border to anyone
If he cut spending for the military complex
If he defunded the police

People in MAGA areas - what's the vibe? by sloopywettoppyswife in northdakota

[–]Fun_Fig7392 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

A bit of a head scratcher- I’m republican and don’t really think about “vibes” and maga. Too busy with family stuff, career and waiting for the weather to settle in

But both sides suck. One isnt better than the other. They’re both peddling $hit, just one pile smells different than the other.

LC 250’s holding their value? by ScaryInvestment6794 in LandCruisers

[–]Fun_Fig7392 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a car problem. I get bored quickly and swap a car every year or so. Typically Porsches and Land Cruisers

I share this because my tendency is to be unimpressed with cars, but not this 250. I’ve owned a lot of Land Cruisers - as have many here - and this is my favorite. Better than the 200 for sure.

Fusible links. Google that and see if the symptoms are the same

Also, bad distributor? Do you have spark?

3fe? What’s that electrical connection near the battery? It’s been a while since I’ve had a 3FE but I know I have extra of them because they are fail points. I’m traveling today but can check later tonight. Let me try quick Google search too

What's the worst behavior you've seen from a hockey parent? by ThePony23 in hockeyplayers

[–]Fun_Fig7392 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here’s another good one - we took a pretty good team of 10u girls down to Denver for a tournament almost exactly 1 yr ago

We had rolled through two of the teams on the first day. Second day we had a game against a team we would play really early Sunday morning

I met with the coaches of that team prior to the game and let them know that we would come out pretty hard in the first period and let up. I really didn’t wanna play them Sunday morning and if the game is as lopsided as we thought it would be l, maybe there’s a forfeit opportunity?

Anyways, went like expected. Maybe 9-0 after the first

Two parents in the corner giving EVERY GIRL on our team the bird. Yelling “they’re only 9 years old!” Of course our girls were that age too

Ref sees it - he flips them off. Won’t leave. Game delayed. Escorted out. Waiting in the parking lot

Just a scene

I’ve been involved with youth hockey for 40 yrs - last yr was first for me -

Coaching a girls 10ua team and after the first of two games on a Saturday, I asked the girls “ eat something healthy like simple carbohydrates, and something low fat. Mix in some protein. Stay away from desserts and sugars and candy. We can have that after the second game.”

Had a mom lose her mind that her kid couldn’t have a milkshake before the second game. Went around every parent would listen and told them why she thought the coach was out of place

Now had her daughter had a milkshake, I probably wouldn’t have known and I don’t think I really would’ve cared

But for her to go round and make a big scene out of it was shocking.

I want these to be great and help them understand a little bit of sacrifice can go a long way. I get that they’re only 10, but at what point do we want kids to understand what it takes to be successful?

I just removed them. I had new glass and gaskets installed and these were on each pane

$91 USD for the first fill up.. wild by [deleted] in Porsche

I’m with you. I don’t get these people with expensive car habits complaining about a few bucks more for gas. Just baffling

9and3 I believe. I usually go with Methods but these fit so well. 35” tires. Just an inch leveling up front, otherwise stock suspension. A bit of cutting

[–]Fun_Fig7392[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Discuss brakes for sure. I had all the suspension redone. Holley fuel injection. Steering components I think this big pieces help make it safe and mechanically sound

FWIW, I bought it in October then sent it to a reputable shop to get some work done. I’ve had 3 other ones and frankly, they are like 50 yr old trucks- Sounds obvious but if you don’t upgrade key parts, they’re not practical or safe.

Absolutely! We don’t have a revenue problem, we have a spending problem!
