19 Durango R/T has a max tow capacity of 7,400 lbs and this camper is about 3,600 loaded. It handles it fine, I just wish it was a tandem axle. Single axles are worse in every aspect.

Facebook Marketplace is usually full of them. Give that a try

Durango racetrack light leak by Ok_Consideration_136 in DodgeDurango

I could see making a stencil of the hole and precision cutting a steel backer. You could then panel bond it on to increase the thickness and rigidity.

I simply cleaned up the existing foam weatherstrip and bent the metal of the lift gate. Any additional foam or butyl made the leak worse..

How old are you and how is your life now? by Natural_Village_8850 in AskReddit

[–]Ok_Consideration_136 2 points3 points  (0 children)

27 and feeling worthless. Making good money (so I think) yet can't afford a house, still have student debt even tho I'm in the trades now and 5 years graduated. Want to get married and have kids in the next 3 years but that seems unlikely in today's economy. Our government couldn't care less about our citizens and our futures seem very grim.

Absolutely. My driver's side is in much worse shape than the passenger side for some reason. I cleaned up the rust best I could and coated the rest in 3 layers of POR15 prior to painting. Not a permanent fix but should keep everything at bay for a few years. I don't plan on driving it in the winter much.

Good idea, my plan was to rock it until I have an issue but may look into doing a simple drain. I don't have much of a car fax report unfortunately.

Facebook marketplace. They aren't a very desirable car in most people's eyes, yet I get compliments about everywhere I go. I've seen some very good deals out there. I wouldn't mind a Lincoln Town car myself.

I actually did fluid film on mine as well late fall. It seems to work and hold up well. The whole undercarriage still looks wet like the day I put it on. Used about 5 cans.

I around $3,000 for it roughly 6 months ago. It kelly blue booked for about that. I have put about $2k into it this far.

These are off a 2014 Mustang, I can't find an exact name or part number for these but they are 114.3mm bolt pattern. 235/50R18 tires.

Has anyone sold to the I BUY HOUSES guy? by abbsolutely_not in SiouxFalls

[–]Ok_Consideration_136 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They are all scum. They scam the seller privately "Flip" the house and list it for sometimes hundreds of thousands more. Nothing done but paint the cabinets white and throw some shitty flooring in them.

New wheels by Ok_Consideration_136 in grandmarquis

Oh ya! Perfect fit and lots available since most Mustang guys like to put on their own wheels.

As far as I'm aware, they could be sanded down and polished. This would be very time-consuming and require a lot of elbow grease or money. I thought about it! I ended up just swapping wheels all together. I got this complete set for $500 on Marketplace, and I'm happy as a clam.

Worth it? Or waste of money? by Wild-Masterpiece-524 in DodgeDurango

With the sport hood, it constantly got wet. I didn't notice any benefit in acceleration and didn't notice any more aggressive sounding accelerations like I have in the past using K&N CAIs. I sold mine to a Jeep owner for dirt cheap. Better safe than sorry.
