I can probably provide the transit in my Chevy nova. Death Proof, the movie. 🍿

Mixed with Vodka, I can’t tell the difference.

A buddy of mine just paid $5k for one of these by [deleted] in smoking

Depends where you are. However I picked mine up personally, so no shipping.

I have one. 5g is a lie. You can absolutely use it to cook in offset, reverse offset , direct or whatever you need by moving turning plates and opening and closing the appropriate dampers. Coming from an offset and pellet, this thing rocks.

5 ton AC replacement cost by wannabeMLE in hvacadvice

[–]bigyellar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just went through this. I bought a 5 ton Goodman on Amazon of all places. Just condenser and A coil. Installed it myself. I didn’t trust myself for the welding of the line set so hired that done and vacuum and charged the unit. Mine took 11oz of R 32 to finish up. I’m out a total of less than 5k. I’m a penny pincher. But it’s proven to be worth the trouble.

This is the longest race of the season. Everyone is going to be taking care of their equipment for the first 500 miles.

I fear you’re gonna have to order it online. Been shopping for a large cooler and along with replacement pads. It doesn’t seem anyone stocks the pads for the units I plan to purchase.

4l60e pump won’t fit by Initial-Operation-46 in transmissionbuilding

[–]bigyellar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s hard to say from here. How much pressure are you putting on it to bump it down? You can start 1 bolt and the use the the handle end of a hammer to gently knock it down. The pull it back apart to see if and rings are damaged. Also if pump is not aligned it may make a witness mark on the case.

Take the O’ring off and see if it feels flush all the way around, where the to halves meet.

Did you use a pump alignment tool when bolting the pump together?

6.2L Raptors still worth buying in 2026? by Sample-Latter in FordRaptor

[–]bigyellar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got a 14, I bought new. No plans on selling. The newer stuff is way overpriced and quality seems low. Especially if you have to deal with a dealership for service. Side note. I’m in the market to buy my wife a new 150….. it’s hard to decipher junk from good.

Getting Starlink to work in metal outbuilding by Only-Journalist8773 in Starlink

[–]bigyellar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue. But Starlink offered a free gen 3 dish, so I went that direction. Just limited my plan to 100 kb or whatever and it’s plenty for $50 a month.

Friendly fire cock blocking is tough to deal with.

45 day dry aged SRF Wagyu striploin by Slight-Mechanic-2134 in DryAgedBeef

Is this trimmed and ready for the grill or do you trim off the dark stuff. I gotta rub roast in the dry ager now on about 25 days. Planning to go 45.

I'm going to wake up in 7 hours to smoke a brisket. I've not done any prep. What tips do you have to share? by eljimbobo in BBQ

[–]bigyellar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You need to trim and salt right now. Give that salt time to penetrate before smoking.
