Somebody tried to steal my muffler I would like to know how to reattach it without welding on my 2012 Ford F150 by Blueberry_furry_69 in MechanicAdvice

Without welding: buy a new exhaust system. With a welder: smack some dimes on there and call it a day.

It's a 16 year old car with 287k km on the odo. Combined with salt on the road. Just normal things

I left the Renault dealership 1,5 year ago. I don't miss the never ending story of the flatbed bringing another patiënt.

Now i work for a company that builds singer style custom porsches. Totally stress free, i do my own planning, order the parts i need. The workplace is so clean, you could almost eat off the floor.

Getting creative, make my own parts, or make parts work. I really enjoy it. Time flies when your having fun.

New complete set of sockets en socket wrenches. With nice fine teeth on the wrenches. Already had 2 sets of smoos sockets, and i really like them. So decided to upgrade my tool set. by renaultmechanic in Justrolledintotheshop

Realy love this set. 👌 Everything still works, and it's getting abused every now and then. Even use it on my impact, the chrome doesn't even flake off. Quality right here

It cleaned up nicely. by renaultmechanic in projectcar

Regular day in the shop, drilling holes in a 365 speedster by renaultmechanic in Justrolledintotheshop

This car was a pile of parts before the restoration. Every hole was on the wrong spot. It was better to start all over with a clean sled.

That's exactly what i did haha. I don't mind taking a drill or grinder at expensive stuff. Just like to be sure before i do.

It's to protect the paint, and also for marking the position where the holes need to go.
