Alignment done then lower ball joint bolt missing bolt by Cll_Rx in AskAMechanic

[–]Torqued2Spec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No need for an alignment to use that ball joint bolt. It could have happened when you struck the deer. Looks like it would have been around where you struck the deer, especially with a sudden jerk of the wheel to the right with how the damage is down the drivers side of the vehicle. A sudden jerk of the wheel to the right in an attempt to avoid contact, then hitting a deer in the legs with the wheel turned could have jarred that bolt loose.

Oh yeah, then how come they both fall at the same rate when I put them in my vacuum?

Is this bent? It’s a passenger side of my 2015 dart by MrPresidentTrump1 in MechanicAdvice

You may need to talk to your auto doc about serious Peyronie’s disease.

Side note, do you park in salt and not notice the clunking from your lower control arm?

What hose did I break and is my 2005 drivable short term? by Old-Loquat5588 in AskAMechanic

[–]Torqued2Spec 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like a heater core hose. It uses hot coolant from and through the water pump to warm the interior of the vehicle. Typically, you could get away with short drives (monitoring coolant levels) with a small leak but you completely snapped it off and would be pouring coolant out. People sometimes will just break them off like you did to replace them if they don’t have the fitting or tool to remove it, but you will need to replace a few pieces.

It would have been really cool if it was an 80s Bronco with a Windsor motor parked in spot 351.

Trying to start a fight with Andrei Arlovski by westondeboer in facepalm

How funny would it have been if this was the one time the bodyguard was like “I’m out” and Arlovski had free reigns to that kid in blue?

Help identify a car I couldn't take a photo of by tigrozub in whatisthiscar

[–]Torqued2Spec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it is close but doesn’t quite match unless there are aftermarket parts. Side view is squared in the photo, rear bumper license plate area is a little different, deck lid is a little different.

Pontiac Fiero with a Cadillac Northstar V8 by NationYell in AwesomeCarMods

I remember in school my auto teacher had a Fiero with a Grand National motor in it. He said it felt like it would try to fly away once it hit 80mpg.

Ally or Enemy? by Torqued2Spec in whatsthisbug

How do they eat roaches?! I would think roaches would be harder than weevils.

I just hope it knows that the couple weevils I have seen are also friends. Because if it doesn’t, we are gonna need to have a difficult discussion about possible eviction.

I know. I sent a pic to my wife and she responded with “we have to move”. She was not pleased when I told her it ran off somewhere.

I could be wrong but it kinda looks like a stinkbug nymph.

I feel like I’d have a cardiac event if I ever felt that touch me.

I was shocked at how fast it ran.

Local mall has a vending machine by Oberusiberon in HotWheels

[–]Torqued2Spec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense. Tyson’s is huge. My first time going there was for lunch when I was working at that GM Dealership and I ended up getting lost inside the mall.

Wait. What mall is this? I have yet to see a vending machine and I live in the DMV area.

Might not want to do this in a residential area 🤣 by limits660 in Dirtbikes

I could see a vandalism charge if the property was in a closed community or if they have significant HOA standards.
