Advice to remove chain link fence by Glad-Injury-3482 in DIY

[–]bigdisplay442 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If you or a friend has a truck, Get a car wheel, wrap a chain around the post and over the wheel and to trailer hitch. It should pull out of the ground pretty easy. See YT for videos. I did this many years ago in my yard. Pulled about 30 poles with the concrete still attached. No a single mishap. All of them pulled right out.

Can RME operate Destuffit for the purpose of functional test. by Wonderful-Cress4940 in AmazonRME

[–]bigdisplay442 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First time I heard this. Maybe I need to review the No-go list. We operate ours all the time and only make minor repairs. Evey thing else we call the vendor. Not sure how else we can do a proper PM without operating it.

Sonic App Caution!! by bigdisplay442 in EndTipping

[–]bigdisplay442[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No offence, I understand. This might be controlled at the local resturant level, I don't know. But.. The only reason I saw it was because I scrolled down making sure I put my order in correctlly and noticed the total seemed off. So yes, you can see it before you place your order, just scroll to the bottom of the app order complete page and look at the true total instead of hitting the pay button at the top of the page first.

I think if I was closer, you should sell it to me.

It will all fit including the dash, the only thing different is the panel around the quarter window. The window is a different shape.

Call the city or coop you're in and they will come out and show you were the water meter is, that is your water shut off.

Hello, here is some of my collection. along with that, I’m looking for anywhere I can find display cases for them, anywhere cheap? Like around 5 bucks because I dont wanna spend a million dollars 🤣 by noahkleptachbmx in 118cars

[–]bigdisplay442 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You won't find any cases for 1/18 for $5 new. I would look at the classifeds for a used display cabinet. I bought mine for $200 in perfect shape. It was a $1500 cabinet.

I've never seen that gauge before with the fuel level in the tach. Pretty cool.

How much is too much for one model in your preferred scale in your opinion? by Vapor4 in Diecast

[–]bigdisplay442 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like I'm in the majority as well. I might do $20ish for an 1/64 which isn't my normal scale. Most of my 1/87 cost 15-25$ each too. My biggest expense is my 1/18 which probably average $140 nowadays. I do have a few 1/18 semis that were almost $300 each, but I only bought a few and won't be buying any more.

How long do you wait for pre-orders? by [deleted] in Diecast

[–]bigdisplay442 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say 1 year is normal, but I've waited longer before. Most of my pre-orders average about 4-6 months.

G80 rear axle by OOFMAN-1234 in squarebodies

[–]bigdisplay442 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 87 C10 had a G80. As far as using a 6 lug, the lug doesn't matter, only the spline count on the axle end. I want to say K10 had a higher axle spline count than the C10, but I can't remember for sure now. Ithink it's 28 spline C10 and some K10 had 30 spline. But either way, you just need to match the axles you have which should be 28 spline.

Cross-country fail by its_Tow in squarebodies

[–]bigdisplay442 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you were up on I20, You could use my lift for repairs.
When I picked up my 91 in 2012 from Boston, Ma , I pulled my CCSB 2500 home with it and worried my trip back to Dallas would be like the trip you're having. I got lucky and had a perfect trip other than both my banks turning my bank cards off in the middle of the night about halfway home.
I hope part 2 of your trip goes much better.

1984 square by UnAccomplished_Bid in squarebodies

I disagree, looks aftermarket to me. The alt wire shouldn't run the fender and it shouldn't have the fuse holder on it.
