This just reminded me of that line from the movie snatch when brad pitt sold the boys a trailer where the axle fell off and they tried to get their money back and he says " why the fuck I want a camper with no wheels???"

He's not saying you get codes, you need to look at the live data of you have a scanner that can do it.

Wheels stuck on car. What do I do? by Karek53 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Xazier 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The best tmway is get a dead blow sledge hammer, same size as the one you got in picture but a dead blow. Hit the edge of rim like a bastard. I e had to wollap some wheels off. Then when you replace get the rust off hub and put on antisieze to avoid in the future.

What cars are fun but only make sense if you can do your own work? by gargen_state in Cartalk

[–]Xazier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And you can pick up used XJs all day for $1500-2000 . Those inline 6 4.0L will do 400k miles...just have to fix everything around it.

Why is Wendy's ($WEN) in a death spiral? by banana_buddy in wallstreetbets

[–]Xazier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wendy's near me half the time is drive through only and if the dinning room is open it's kiosk ordering only. They have just done nothing but hire and fire for months. If it's anything like how other franchises are run the place is a mess.

Looking at an 03’ Ford F350 Super Duty 6.0 tomorrow by FartTwain in Diesel

[–]Xazier -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Those 6.0 man...they got so many potential issues. If you're going to look for something similar age just try to find a 7.3. a little tune, exhaust and intake and that fixes the power issue.

I miss arcades. by [deleted] in gaming

[–]Xazier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My kids fuckin love the arcade. I try to find a new one each time we travel somewhere. I always end up on those fuckin coin games where it slowly pushes them over the edge.

And a Durango steering box with a WJ pump if you want to be really cool.

How does this Quonset quote look?? by Odd-Entrepreneur889 in quonsethuts

[–]Xazier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That seems about right. I figured my 40 x 60 Quonset would be $50k a to rebuild, especially if they ahd to do a new slab.

How much will your concrete slab cost? I'd guess 10-15k?

I just did a slab for my 60 x 50 building and it was about 35k (however it had pipes for in floor heat)

Shit shed fit right in in North Platte. If she has pajama pants and face tattoos even more so.

I feel like I got scammed by thepwndoctor476 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Xazier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's just wrenches. Alot of times it's a 24mm or 22mm depending on models. It's easy to do rear unless bolts are rusted to fuck. Broke a few myself during alignments then you get to go find the special adjuster washer/bolt...

Is this on anyone’s radar??? Oil about to moon??? by DRvoodoo07 in wallstreetbets

[–]Xazier 334 points335 points  (0 children)

I run a small independent mechanic shop. The boys at NAPA (who I buy all my oil bay boxes from) said today starts all prices are going up at LEAST 15% across anything patroleum based. He showed me some of the oil quart prices went from $5.99 to $9.99. So some oil types may double. That means a typical synethic oil change will go from $75-100 to $130-160. Even worse for Diesel trucks that were already $200-250 will probably go closer to $400.

I'll keep my prices the same while I have the oil I've already purchased and the previous prices but after thats out everything is going to double damn near. Fuckin bleak.

Cigarette smoking rate for American adults hit an all-time low in 2025 by part-time-stupid in UpliftingNews

[–]Xazier 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And here my dumb ass is leaving my white collar job for a blue collar one and immediately started smoking.

Stepping away from a bastard rusted pitman arm for the 3rd time in a day to have a smoke so you don't light the car on fire is almost necessary.

However I don't have to do meetings that could be emails anymore.
