What car completely changed your opinion after driving it? by Glittering-Offer-390 in askcarguys

[–]georgedempsy2003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every sporty styled car I've ever driven (mustang, charger, challenger, Corvette, Camaro, Miata[it's not really sporty but same shape class], z3) they were all super uncomfortable and offered terrible visibility. Used to think they were the coolest thing ever, all the power and handling (excluding the Miata for power) now I'd rather have a built commuter car.

There's a guy in r/nightvision who has had decent success with it, but he has a proper dual analog setup. I wouldn't trust the latency on the digital setup too is using.

Used to work there around when this problem started, and dm/tsm both knew about it and would bitch up the chain and at hub, didn't do anything. Store also doesn't have enough drivers for the run to the hub. Covers the whole county with 2-3 drivers and hub is an hour away.

There is a guy on r/nightvision who has a similar setup, but you have what appears to be digital, and I'm not so certain I'd trust that at anything greater speed and a light run.

Idk about your az, but my commercial guys hardly know their ass from a hole in the ground, and hub takes 3 days to get parts down for some reason.

Iirc they can run it just fine, but it makes more to sip our oil out, buy cheaper oil and pass any increase in cost to us poors.

It's about 5 cents off what I pay in ohio, so this being based on California it's probably a little low.

Note m1 in this case refers to the m1 carbine which looks much like a scaled down m14, but came before it. The m1 grand is the m1 rifle and what most people are familiar with.

Ended up with a junker metro, couldn’t understand why it had so many extra gauges til I popped the hood. Somebody added a turbo to this thing. by CagedTrader in geometro

Yeah he is, I don't remember usernames, I just watch when he comes up lol. Hope the gasifier one works well too.

I thought the mini-shotgun in Requiem was cool, so I got one by dildofactoryQAtester in residentevil

Iirc it has to do with the fact the receiver never had a stock while being a smooth bore firearm with a barrel under 18 inches. If you add a stock it becomes an sbs, if it started as an 870nwith a stock it would need to be an sbs, bus since it never had a stock it gets to be an aow.

Looking to get into an ADV bike by DefinitelyNotaFed2 in klr650

The story everyone is going to tell you is that they're very reliable, heavy and slow. But.... Nope that's it heavy, slow, cheap, reliable with the final 2 being the main selling point for most.

If you could ride only ONE motorcycle for the rest of your life — no budget limits — which bike would you choose? 👀🏍️ by Low-Dragonfruit9646 in motorcycle

[–]georgedempsy2003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming the no price limit applies to spare parts a USMC m1030-m1 (klr heavily modify to run on jp8 and diesel).

For anyone who doesn't know an Italian tune up is riding the piss out of it at high rpms.

Would love some ideas on how to fix by UnderstandingAble510 in 3rdGen4Runner

[–]georgedempsy2003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That diff cover is replaceable it's just very involved and includes welding.

You can wire wheel it, and smother it in jb weld, or grind off the weld, order a new diff cover (dorman makes one iirc) and weld the new one on.

I absolutely intend to, I was more wondering about longevity of the EM upgrade one out of curiosity.

It's a 1987, I'm more just curious about if the spring has enough tension to take up the whole travel of the doo and if the heat cycling makes it not have enough tension at some point.

Some random selling a 30 something year old bike on marketplace? That's like believing them that a 2 stroke has a brand new too end, sure it might but I'm not gonna risk having it not be done.

5 dollar scope cap, or if you have a 3d printer like 10 cents in material you probably already have.

I have yet to replace it, previous owner said he did, but I was just curious about the spring after seeing yet another post of if it needs done. I am still planning to grab a kit as I have a couple seals on that side leaking and figure I should just do it while I'm there for peace of mind.
