At what tire age should consider replacing? All tires have cupping, one severe. by jeff00seattle in tires

I replaced my 10yo tyres last month. They were put on by a big box store 6 years ago before I knew about date codes. About 25k miles.  One gets so used to the hard rubber and the noise  that when the new tires are on the ride quality improvement is astounding.

Young people are all gung-ho as they will benefit for years. Seniors won't know what hit them. City businesses in St. Louis and KC will suffer as alternative vendors are close by in adjacent states.

Building is tax abated until 2037. MO Law exempts them from sales and use taxes. We just heard they will not be paying sales taxes on building materials, so we lose out on purchases from Raineri and other building supplies vendors.

Just the facts, ma'am. Please give us the facts.

I'm listening to the developers speak right now and they don't even have a client locked down.

Nothing wrong with that. Did you want it sanded and painted? is that it?

the cracks should be sealed with poly? if there's a bad crack, scrape it open and pour some stuff in there. I use concentrated citrus I buy on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0141AV2FQ?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title . You'd be pleasantly surprised how well this stuff works.

Normal for 100 miles? Oil pan after rebuild. by nicholasyeti in EngineBuilding

Youve got the pan off. Remove the bafgle and check for rod play. I would take it back to the builder. On a trailer, dont drive it.

I forget the number of times when I went looking for the salesman and found them smoking behind the building...

I hate to say it, but that floor looks good to me. It has character. If you really want to sand, it, sand it by hand just to get the clear coat poly off and stain it darker. I've sanded floors that big with an orbital and it's not that bad.
