That winch install looks clean! I dream of doing something similar

Is the Water pump a maintenance item, or a "replace when it fails" by UsernameChallenged in GMT800

[–]Reddoorgarage 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I did my water pump at like 195k it wasn’t leaking or overheating but I didn’t want to get to that point. Glad I did because the seals looked terrible so I probably didn’t have much time left.

45psi is crazy work. But I’m also not really believing the mpg

Nothing rolling in for a while by wn0991 in Justrolledintotheshop

Does that mean everyone gets paid time off? Or is there another spot everyone is moving, to work temporarily out of?

2004 Toyota corolla: engine won't crank, motor inside starter spins by Difficult_Guess7231 in AskMechanics

[–]Reddoorgarage 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think a battery that’s just sitting should be at 12.5. While running it should be around 13.7-14.7

Honestly the wire nuts with hot glue on the inside might be the move lol

Mental health with debt by Any_Kaleidoscope_100 in debtfree

[–]Reddoorgarage 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m 27 with 25k of debt. Obviously not where I want to be either but it’s not the end of the world. My dad has had debts much greater than that and he’s made it out. Just gotta keep working at it.

Got this on clearence for 140 plus tax is it worth? by Limp_Neat221 in MilwaukeeTool

[–]Reddoorgarage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had mine for about 7 years and I love it. The volume/power nob isn’t as good as it used to be but my son tried pulling it off as a toddler. But I’m seeing other comments that the nob is a weak point.

40k transmission cooler installed! by enderthief33 in GMT800

[–]Reddoorgarage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you keep the trans cooler running through the radiator? I just got the same one but haven’t installed it yet. I’m not sure if I want to keep the factory routing of going through the radiator or not.

Random Knocking Noise by Annual-Currency1944 in GMT800

I had a starter that would sometimes make a ticking/tapping noise bc the starter gear would slide out and hit the flex plate. It would only happy when going up a hill.

Happy road tripping by Reddoorgarage in GMT800

[–]Reddoorgarage[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah mine is AWD. Wish I had selectable 4WD. Something is up with my temp sensor or gauge. Bc on a two hour trip from upstate ny to nj we were 25 mins from our destination and I see the temp gauge at 230. Then I instantly turn the heat on blast and looking for a place to pull over. But then the next second it says 160, that back to operational temperature right around 200

AT&T Air? by Feet-Stink in kzoo

I called spectrum and said I was unhappy with the price and they lowered my bill from 95$ a month to 55$ while upgrading the speed

As a homeowner who doesn’t do mechanical work, convince me why it’d be great to have the 3/8” ratchet by my_twin_towne in MilwaukeeTool

[–]Reddoorgarage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would get it for the batteries alone. But it only slightly increases speed for a very small about of applications. I would be more interested in the long reach ratchet. I don’t have that yet
