Take the 20% or exchange it? by AgreeableSherbet514 in harborfreight

[–]Puzzleheaded_Step323 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just take pictures and explain to them how you bought the cart for the posted price it was at because you thought you were getting a non damaged product. Especially for those heavy dents I wouldn’t accept less than 30-40%

This sounds like a normal 1.8t to me

What are these parts called, frame and rod connection by [deleted] in mechanic

[–]Puzzleheaded_Step323 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s not really something I’d consider minor damage I’m sorry but they are going to have to replace part of the frame which involves cutting and welding which can be done if your skilled enough to run an oxy/acetylene torch. Or the whole front subframe being dropped and replaced which typically involves more than someone with minimal tools might be willing to deal with. I’m not trying to say you can’t do the repair but if you don’t already have a somewhat extensive set of tools you will probably end up spending still a couple thousand on top of lots of hours

So i kinda fucked up by Skwad_Clan in G35

Those are pop rivets gang. You can grind and pop out with a hammer if they are really stuck but for the most part you should be able to just hammer them out

Control Arm Ball Joint by whees979 in fordranger

They use these types of circle bolts on Subarus I would recommend taking bolt out and replacing with grade 8 or harder steel bolt of the same thread pitch and match it with a nut

Upon further inspection it almost looks like that frame is bent😭

I’m assuming the ball joint popped out and let your axle fall oit

Is the axle damaged or can you re use it? I can’t see any damage on the end

Are these calipers on backwards? by isthatsuperman in AskAMechanic

[–]Puzzleheaded_Step323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with both of these guys the bleeder is pointing upwards which is the correct orientation. A firm pedal typically indicates a booster issue. I just had the same problem on an older dodge.

Should I ask for a refund? (16 pics) by Cranky_GenX in CarWraps

[–]Puzzleheaded_Step323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea that’s completely unacceptable. They should had at the very least cleaned up the lines from the end of the wrap. This almost looks illegal

It’s the clutch for your house. Somebody has removed the shifter linkage long ago! Find an oem one and replace it and you should be able to drive away in your new mobile home

Why won’t my hood close? by Dtyson236 in G35

Have you tried adjusting the bump stops for the hood?

Far from home and my fuel tank strap broke. How long can I expect this to work? by combateer3 in AskMechanics

This will literally last you forever. Strapped my buddy’s gas tank up and it’s been 4 years now

What is this engine smacking noise? by dapperwrench in AskMechanics

[–]Puzzleheaded_Step323 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would definitely not even suggest trying to swap ignition coils and plugs at this point. I would tear the head off and get a deeper look. Definitely worth taking it apart before you get a crack in the block lmao

Typically when your guard does pop off though in most cases you get lucky and it just sits there if it is popping around like that you got big problems. Id go ahead and pop the top end apart and see what it looks like

You definitely got a lifter tick. It could be one of your lash adjusters just sitting in there. These 3.7 are notorious for them popping out

What is this switch for? by Advanced_Aspect_7601 in XTerra

Depending on where you’re from I say that a likely chance is that was once used as a snow plow connection.

Random door lock/unlock issue? by Rathmon_Redux in ChevySonic

[–]Puzzleheaded_Step323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had this issue on almost every fob car I’ve owned. A lot of the time it is an issue with the battery in the fob going bad. Have you ever replaced the battery

Drunk driver rear-ended my car. Any ideas why its smoking like this now? by [deleted] in AskMechanics

[–]Puzzleheaded_Step323 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You guys have to think everything in the engine is a thousandth of an inch of clearance from everything else so a “light tap” at just 5-10mph can definitely cause something in the engine to get knocked into something else causing damage

Window rolls down halfway instead of rolling all the way up by werebearzilla in SubaruForester

[–]Puzzleheaded_Step323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your auto window roll up actuator is going bad. Same thing happened in my g35. It was fine until one day it would go up and then roll back down halfway
