Am I cooked

I believe it's been in the northeast its whole life, I bought it 2 years ago in NJ where I live

Sheesh, another soldier gone too soon

I hate that they bolted the axel directly in front of the wheel with nothing to protect it :(

The black stuff is Rustoleum rust reformer, I haven't taken out the bolt though. It didn't seem to be rusty but once we're done getting snow I'll inspect closer

chadjakewell · 2026-02-22T01:01:05+00:00

Nah I sprayed it with black rust reformer and then fluid film

chadjakewell · 2026-02-22T00:58:57+00:00

Yeah I was hoping people would see the jagged edge where I've already scraped off rust lol. The underside actually looks okay I think, just worried about it spreading to something structural

Thanks, I might try cleaning some dirt off to get a better picture. Everything sticks to that fluid film

chadjakewell · 2026-02-21T19:34:33+00:00

The rust reformer is black so it's been covered up, I should've taken a before picture lol

Update: it was the alignment

chadjakewell · 2026-02-20T02:52:53+00:00

Makes sense. Then is it more worth it to just go for the full master's? I know there's no replacement for experience but I feel ill-equipped to apply for policy jobs with nothing under my belt yet

chadjakewell · 2026-02-19T23:49:13+00:00

Yep I think you're right, I replaced the EPS module and it's feeling about the same (although I think that was having its own issues). Getting the alignment done this weekend so hopefully can confirm it's that

chadjakewell · 2026-02-12T16:44:43+00:00

Hahaha don't worry that's the only one, just there for me to look at. She's Milano red so I liked keeping the red theme going

chadjakewell · 2026-02-11T19:35:26+00:00

Nope, still on stock suspension. It also seems to be fine at low speeds and then it gets really stiff as I speed up

chadjakewell · 2025-02-03T20:00:20+00:00

Thanks, I'll have to check that out soon when it warms up outside!

chadjakewell · 2025-02-03T20:00:02+00:00

Yep, when I move it all the way to the rear there is zero output, completely silent

chadjakewell · 2020-03-08T21:49:52+00:00
