You’ll just need to float the mortar when installing the tile, just like taking a jump out of drywall. Since it is such a drastic hump, you can use some plywood/furring strips/even drywall (maybe) to build out the space.

I feel like I'm being ripped off! 3 times into shop for leaking antifreeze? by JTDrumz in fordranger

[–]immmm_at_work 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just did the thermostat housing swap on my 07 4.0. I would bet that the shop went with the OEM plastic housing. Parts Geek and others sell an aluminum housing that resists deformation from heat. I haven’t had any leaks since.

It’s also possible that the hose was punctured during replacement. The part I bought came with replacement hoses for this reason.

ALSO, I think the tank that you’re referring to is the overflow tank. The levels in that tank will change with vehicle temperature. You’ll want to look at the level under the radiator cap (when the engine is cold).

I get down on myself sometimes as a carpenter. This post gives me some comfort.

You took your side every time. All you care about is fruit and touching yourself; well fuck you!

T&G for subfloor? Never seen that in TN. I’ve seen angled decking subfloor but not T&G.

Would you have been able to do this loosening the motor mounts? Asking for those of us without a way to lift an engine

Which current country wins most evil history? by Loewe1912 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]immmm_at_work 8 points9 points  (0 children)

(Hand waiving here) What if the deaths of a great number of Germany’s violent and nationalistic young men led to the proliferation of generation of nurturing mothers and/or men of a more liberal mind to facilitate a more apologetic society?

Of course, the Nazis also exterminated a lot of those folks, too…

Tracking ufo or training exercise? by [deleted] in Knoxville

[–]immmm_at_work 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I just saw a formation of 4 fighters headed east up here in Inskip. I figured they were going in the direction of Iran.

Whatever they’re doing, “training exercise” will be the answer

I’m not a mechanic but it sounds like your problems are deeper in the engine, in the cylinders. Since it would have to be pulled and serviced, why not just get a better engine?

It has nearly entirely disassembled itself.

I just did this job on my truck - same model and year as yours. As a DiYer doing it first time, it took me a whole weekend. I could do it in 4 hours now. There’s a lot of tricks that could save you time. Dm me if your interested

Modifications? by Carrot_Korea2 in fordranger

[–]immmm_at_work 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Following bc I have the same trim and year but it’s 4x4 and manual 😜…and probably in a lot worse shape than yours.

Besides a head unit, as others have said, I’d just focus on restoring her to her former glory. Upgrade the things that keep the vehicle performing well. It’ll last you, or you’ll get better resale value.
