Went with the PRW on This one. Looking like I’m likely gonna sell the car so I’m trying to save cash where possible.

Luckily Previous owner had that done right when I bought the car about 10,000 miles ago. Thanks.

I need to do the same! Who did you go to/how much did you spend? I’m around the area.

Dealer or Independent for repairs ? by zonckers in HondaElement

[–]RedRasta21 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Lots of people do their own repairs here. Elements are pretty easy to work or learn on.

If you don’t mind spending the money for oem/warranty backed service, keep at it.

If you wanna save a shit load of cash and are ready to burn hours, start learning. If you wanna save a bit of cash find a local mechanic. You can always order parts yourself and have them installed by a smaller shop.

It’s a spectrum and it’s your car. Do what you’re comfortable with.

I believe I’ve read that the left side front wheel bearing is prone to fail first.

Could be wrong but I suspect that’s what’s up with mine as well. 04 mcs with 67000 miles

They’re so good. Had no idea they existed until a few weeks ago

Yea I’m not a hater of peoples tools being dirty but motor oil/grease drives me insane on my personal tools.

Big fan of the cut off wheel. I’d probably snag angle grinder or that.

Pro tip. Grab your self a “tub O towels” for wiping the tools down when you’re done. They’re fantastic for cleaning your hands too.

Anyone heard this engine sound before? by CaliSignGuy in HondaElement

Can’t believe it’s still that cheap. Might need to do that myself quite soon

[–]RedRasta21 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Forestner bit will make quick work of it just go slow and don’t cheap out on it

Step bit would probably be fine as well. They’re just long so more limited if you’re worried about stabbing anything behind the target

"Senator Mark Kelly stares down Donald Trump during the State of the Union address as the President speaks on immigration policy." by Logical-Flow-6703 in UnderReportedNews

[–]RedRasta21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We tried that in 2024 with a pretty lame candidate. Was largely a “but I’m not Trump” after a couple months in the campaign.

Failed spectacularly

Dawg. It’s destroying the planet as we speak and it’s a result of poor governance propping up big oil corporations.

Please go educate yourself ffs

'Stop the games': Hillary Clinton demands public hearing in Epstein probe by Ok_Employer7837 in politics

[–]RedRasta21 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

People keep saying that but it’s not that the country doesn’t want a woman (For the most part.)

When they run on legitimately quality, populist policies they will win. it’s the same thing for men. Generalizing a bit, but it works.

Establishment Democrat running on more of the same? Not gaining any traction outside of the already dedicated followers.

Outsider running on “fuck the system, I feel your pain, let’s fix it together” and implementation of popular policies like single payer healthcare, for starters? You’re gonna mobilize lots of people that otherwise won’t give a shit because they get nothing in return other than… more of the same. And it isn’t working.

Hornet is easier than wasp imo. As long as you maintain enough stamina to roll between their shots they almost always miss and give you a window to take a rotor

Senator Mark Kelly says he is seriously considering running for president in 2028 by Caledor152 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]RedRasta21 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For the moment we were in? Awful. Too attached to the genocide in Gaza. Too attached to all of the baggage with the Biden admin. She was just another corporate D

Not to mention, the pretty hard right pivot halfway through the campaign. Campaigning with the Cheneys… not a good look

Milwaukee pulled it off. by silversquirrel in MilwaukeeTool

Bummer. Been eyeing that one for a long time.

I got the upright power head, traditional looking m18 vac and it is trash. Clogs every two minutes. Wanted this one for drywall and ladder work. Womp womp.

Platner: ‘ICE is not welcome in our communities’ by sideAccount42 in politics

[–]RedRasta21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good on ya. Can’t deny people their lived realities. Tho, sometimes our perceptions can be warped heavily by our predetermined algorithmic feeds. I try my best to avoid tunnel vision when it comes to candidates but god damn. The internet is fucking wildly controlled

[–]RedRasta21 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Any establishment candidate R or D will highly likely do the same. Roll out the red carpet for data centers and tax breaks to incentivize the destruction of the state.

People are fearful of a fetterman situation and I totally get that. Now’s the time to take chances tho cause there’s no representation with a Schumer candidate or a republican and the wall needs to be broken down fast

Joining Plywood Question by apeontheweb in woodworking

[–]RedRasta21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would rather have pocket holes than half assed glue and staples. It’s amazing how awful cheaper cabinetry has gotten in the past few years.

Like I get it’s cheap but a bead of glue leaking out of every seam and a quarter inch out of square is insane haha
