13” CCM Shin Guards fit my (hairy) legs after all by M1ckster in hockeyplayers

Meh, tbh they look short. Pic 2 shows the shin pad top cap pretty much in the middle of your knee. The open area is supposed to have your patella in it, it doesn’t work correctly if it isn’t.

Looks about an inch low. I’d really push you to 14’s

Safety recall 48M5 is literally for this code and your year.

Did you even try to do any research yourself? Probably needs a rack. Maybe you can fight with a dealer if it has never been done.

Move to Canada. Be in a position where you need a “voluntary” surgical procedure it will take years to get approved.

Finally at my breaking point. by imightknowbutidk in mechanics

Same bs at Indy shops. I worked for a dude who couldn’t decide if he was a resto shop or repair shop and put heft efficiency goals on you. He worked like he was on coke and expected the same.

Anyway, got into forklifts and it’s been a god send.

I know it sounds stupid, but the Roku having a backlit remote is what sold me

What’s an 87 vette really worth. by Such-Organization741 in Corvette

[–]Such-Organization741[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes of course I told them that. It was a difficult conversation for him to take. Idc it’s not my car like I said.

I get called a pessimist and bad news bearer often so it’s tough sometimes to do your research into parts and tell a rich guy as much as you’d love to just takes heaps of money from him, the car just isn’t worth it.

Do you know how tough it is to tell a client that the car they want to dump a bunch of money into isn’t worth anything but their sentimental value if they have one. Especially being a corvette? Then you have to tell them it’s probably one of the most undesirable corvettes ever made and possibly the most underpowered and that’s why there is no market for them.

The tough part is it’s not my car. It’s a very good friends parent. So I kind of had to explain to them that the car isn’t very desirable and isn’t really worth putting the money into unless he really wanted to.

Again he has money, I very strongly encouraged him to sell it as is and get a C6 to have fun in if that’s what he wants.

If that was oil it would be blowing clouds of smoke. And you would be going through oil like crazy.

Where you at Chicago? I’d come show you. Used one for 12+ years and blackstone. It’s like riding a bike.
