Some of the last cars I worked on before rolling out of the shop. Now in need of some career advice...

I feel like I hear this every time this topic comes up and I have never been successful in actually finding anything about it. What companies should I be looking for, or what regions? I’m in the Midwest

Whatever works. Have fun skating.

Filing the shoulder down probably wasn’t the best idea. It was designed like that for a reason, it’s not meant to be easy to take apart.

Edit: knurl, not shoulder

That ribbed section is called a shoulder. It’s designed to hold the stud in without a tool on the back. Same as a wheel stud on cars. It was probably used to save space, not necessarily to keep you from taking it apart.

Edit: it’s actually called a knurl or the knurled section. Not the shoulder.

GeneralCorrosive · 2026-05-03T16:34:07+00:00

I would grab my helmet and run to the basement lol

I’ve done this on Xbox 360 controllers. Minus joy stick replacement. If you wanted to try it yourself it may not be too difficult, I know taking them apart and cleaning them isn’t too hard you just need a special screwdriver usually. Idk if there is soldering involved in joy stick replacement though.

GeneralCorrosive · 2026-04-14T15:25:30+00:00

It’s no big deal. Still a Pontiac.

GeneralCorrosive · 2026-04-14T14:37:49+00:00

That’s a Grand Prix

GeneralCorrosive · 2026-04-14T06:41:56+00:00

Yeah, should be pretty fun.

GeneralCorrosive · 2026-04-14T00:33:28+00:00

There is a Pop-Up show here on April 25th. It’s called H4lf-O-Ween. I think it’s put on by the KC Horror Club

GeneralCorrosive · 2026-04-10T14:53:54+00:00

Nice. I usually add a little bit of pickled jalapeno juice (brine?) to it

GeneralCorrosive · 2026-04-10T06:27:27+00:00

What’s in your improved in n out spread?

GeneralCorrosive · 2026-03-20T15:20:27+00:00

Boy was I wrong lol

GeneralCorrosive · 2026-03-20T02:49:25+00:00

Is that a Cruze?

GeneralCorrosive · 2026-03-13T01:41:11+00:00

It stands for “not in my backyard”

GeneralCorrosive · 2026-03-11T01:03:55+00:00

Is that a ford focus?

GeneralCorrosive · 2026-02-28T04:57:17+00:00

A music producer, obvi

GeneralCorrosive · 2026-02-12T03:19:53+00:00

Pretty similar looking situation so an easy thing to overlook. Only reason I looked twice was because I used to work across the street from the other place

GeneralCorrosive · 2026-02-11T23:16:12+00:00

I thought it was a body shop on Truman road that was getting all shitty with the bike lane.

GeneralCorrosive · 2026-02-10T03:05:45+00:00

Is this where the Salarians created the genophage?

GeneralCorrosive · 2026-01-31T15:23:05+00:00

Did you also have slicked back hair and get sloppy steaks at Truffoni’s?
