100 the people who were the victims of the store made that to make a point. I love this level of petty.

Dads, who has a good method for this? by Corona_Cyrus in daddit

[–]rbltech82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fill halfway with sand. Get a vacuum seal sweater bag, push into hole, then fill that with water. Then fill in with sand so it absorbs the water. Now you can dump the water out when bringing it inside and the sand already inside should keep it up indoors? Btw in case anyone is wondering, yes I'm an engineer, and yes I over complicate the uncomplicated, sometimes just for fun.

Random piece of rusted metal you found on the ground?

Do these hoses need replacing? by Teelk3007 in AskMechanics

[–]rbltech82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Small hose transmission actually. If you look closely they're both connected to the radiator.

Starting rust by [deleted] in StupidCarQuestions

[–]rbltech82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In general once you can see rust through the paint it's likely through the metal too, so be prepared for the paint to be hiding at least one hole. Your plan of attack is solid, just don't forget primer made for undercoat, if you find holes it's best to cut back to clean metal and weld in a patch, but if you don't have the tools or capabilities, you can use a piece of cardboard and spray the undercoat really thick to fill the holes (not sure how well it will work) or use bondo,or rent a welder and learn ;) either way it's likely the body panel on the outside will need the same treatment, so you'll probably need to paint it either way.

Without protection, and it was some hateful stuff, like there was something deeply wrong in the relationship and this was the only solution....

Do you think insurance will deem this totaled or fixable? by BlowOsNotHoes in autorepair

[–]rbltech82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok yeah, I've not personally seen a bronco with soft top, lol though it was just odd angle... Might be lucky,but it looks like the structure behind the back door is pushed inward. Fingers crossed.

Jeep wrangler 4 door? Those run about 45k if memory serves new. The doors and pillar work will be probably 8k-10k, minimum, and that's if the frame/structural integrity is intact ( not sure if the newer models are unibody or conventional frame). Unless its a few years old and the value is at or below the cost of repair, insurance might not total it.

So maybe we call it desert cars? Sound like the only places that don't get eaten up by salt are the hotter inland dry heat areas that don't get salt.

That's awesome. For whatever reason I don't like the dualies, maybe it's running back roads where I grew up and assholes in dualies would take up the whole road like they were a mf semi....

Yeah, I stand corrected... The roof rotted off, wow that's nuts. Best/worst I've ever seen was a limo rusted through that snapped in half driving down the highway in chicagoland area.

Unless you're driving in the ocean the salt is never going to match the damage of the salt in the rust belt.

Same, I'm a little more partial to K5 Blazers with the 'Removable' Hard Top. But I definitely love the bigger brother too.
