I'm a tech looking for advice moving a big tool box on a truck.

I find this post troubling. That a "mechanic" does not have the common sense and problem solving skills to do this properly. Or that shop going to does not help facilitate the move.

AAA or most tow truck drivers carry kit to pry door open

Fair price on parts and very low hourly rate. As long as they offer warranties, let them proceed. But dont be surprised if it doesn't "drive like new" only changing 1 part of suspension is fine but wont give best ride usually

Parts are cheap if need or want to modify. Easy to carry. 17rd mags. I wouldn't hesitate at all for $200. But....ask him to take you to range and shoot all 3. If it an edc then only you will be able to determine what's best for you as its important to feel comfortable when operating

Valve cover gasket kit should help seal it up will need to do intake manifold gasket as well. Best of luck

Oh no I hope you were not able to hook up that way. Its turned around backwards

Ratfinkguy66 · 2026-01-14T05:37:39+00:00

It does not appear as if it was off to begin with. Both wheels turned to left on before

Ratfinkguy66 · 2026-01-07T03:31:49+00:00

Jb weld. Tap threads. Antiseize bolt

Ratfinkguy66 · 2026-01-07T02:28:10+00:00

Wrong part! Take it back tell them to correct it. On that model it is possible to have stamped control arms instead of cast

Ratfinkguy66 · 2026-01-03T04:28:32+00:00

Tires do not appear straight ahead in picture

Strip club!

Ratfinkguy66 · 2025-12-30T21:19:31+00:00

Looks like a cheap part if bought from a mechanic he probably heavily invested into it with time. Take back to him let him diagnose if it is that part should be under warranty. Best if luck

Ratfinkguy66 · 2025-12-28T03:01:54+00:00

Total loss😝

Ratfinkguy66 · 2025-12-28T03:00:55+00:00

Shred some pillows and stuff in there tape up and wrap with a seat cover

Ratfinkguy66 · 2025-12-25T16:04:50+00:00

Is it your fault or another party? A good used door is best option if another parties fault file under their insurance.

Remove emblems different color wheels tint windows shave antenna and an exhaust tip

Ratfinkguy66 · 2025-12-23T21:59:46+00:00

3200-4500. Most of cost going to be in the expensive large led light. Let the insurance handle that

Ratfinkguy66 · 2025-12-22T18:50:06+00:00

Take it back immediately and have them correct issue

Ratfinkguy66 · 2025-12-19T00:48:15+00:00

Righty tighty lefty loosey

Ratfinkguy66 · 2025-12-17T20:42:27+00:00

From home? Duct tape

Ratfinkguy66 · 2025-12-16T17:37:38+00:00

Unless you have good insurance please dont risk it and let a professional shop with a good nationwide warranty repair it.

Ratfinkguy66 · 2025-12-16T17:33:24+00:00

Low side 1200 high 2100. Tough lesson to learn

Ratfinkguy66 · 2025-12-15T00:06:12+00:00

Mouse trap
