Maintenance Thread

You fucking write like a 6 year old kid. Fucking disgusting.

Bigger tires
Higher lift
new wheels because lol pre bent pro comps.
Gear up the diff and a cat back
Thing would be cherry

work on your handwriting bro its worse than a four year olds

I'm left handed, it's not natural for me to write to the right.

>>14046845
That's not an excuse. Plenty of left-handed writers are much better than that. You probably wrote with a stick in your mouth.

Excusing your hand-writing, my list includes:
Look at Front brakes (Noise, but are new)
Look at Back Brakes (Old, should be replaced)
Clean Carpets
Vacuum
Change Transmission Fluid
Call Insurance about new wind shield.
That pretty much covers it.

>Oil change
>Sand and respray my hood and right rear quarter panel (hood had dry spray problems and did body work on the quarter panel recently)

>Put on my new bumper and tap holes in it to mount my plate
>Decide if I replace my tires with bigger ones or more of the same since the ones I bought a few years ago need to be replaced

It's my mother's vehicle, I look after it because she won't.

>>14046932
>fur
Use those sticky lint rollers, the ones that are a bunch of sheets on a roll. You'll probably need half a dozen and have to vacuum when you're done, but it will work for less than ten bucks. That shit is magic for picking up hair.

Power steering rack needs replacing, fucking expensive as shit and fuck doing that shit myself.

That and the rocker cover gaskets a lil leaky, but only a bit

That's how my mom's is, only a little grease stain.

>>14046981
Nice crop of vehicles, I thought i had my hands full.

>>14046993
Everything is road worthy except for the 325i and thats becuase its been sitting for several years.

>>14046821
What the hell. I've been given shit all my life for my writing yet it looks like calligraphy compared yours.

>>14046821

Oh boy, guess I can vent in this thread.

>1990 Ramcharger with 200k miles, estimated
>318 needs to be pulled apart to diagnose knock and potential loss of compression in one or more cylinders
>carb needs rebuild or replacement, but needs disassembly to decide
>need new battery, alternator, and headlights
>new windshield
>rear driveshaft fell out and needs replacement
>alignment, bearings, ball joints, and shocks need doing
>new brakes all around
>door hinges need to be replaced
>steering gearbox is sloppier than my mother's vagina
>locks need retooling

And all this is just the minor shit. I want to toss that 318 and pick up a 12 valve to replace it. Need a shift kit for the A518, mount fabrication, and replacement of fuel components to accommodate the diesel swap. Eventually going to have to replace the weathered axles, preferably with new D60s with Detroit lockers and 3.73s. Heavy duty leaves will then be required and I'll need to look at stabilizers and a new pitman arm to accommodate those.

Then there's the whole thing about bumping up to 34" boggers over my current 33" and putting suspension seats into the thing so I can avoid finding a chiropractor...

Owning an old Dodge truck is great. At least my daily isn't a piece of shit.

I wish those worked, but the fur seems to have weaved itself into a sort of carpet-y type of material on the sides and while the rollers do get some of it out, it still leaves a shitton of it behind. The only way I've found that makes any sort of difference so far is sitting there for hours picking it out by hand.

>>14046821
Remove the cats from the buic when they finally buy it, other than that, bitch is purring like a kitten and doesn't need shit.

And this was before the accident

>>14047230
Damn, that thing was clean. How did the accident happen? it looks like it got gangbanged.

>>14047240
Typical following too closely on the interstate, I almost managed to avoid the person in front of me by swerving to the left until I got pushed into him.

>>14046856
As left hander can confirm that we are universally shit at writing with your normie standards.
>>14046845
Though OP, I do say you should invest in becoming ambidextrous. As a leftie you've already been exposed to it more often simply because we live in a right-handed world.
I write with my left hand and draw with my right. Good practice, that.

>>14047270
Son of a bitch, that's how we lost our last car, some idiot in a silverado with no insurance hitting my ass.

>>14047289
I actually do a lot of ambidextrous things, even as a kid I prefer using scissors with my right, shifting gears with my right, computer mouse with the right, even on a can opener I can torque it better with my right.

Not going to judge on the bodywork..Look I am in no position, did you see the list of shit I want to do to my 1990 with 310K miles on the clock and like 2 accidents under the belt? Yeah ideas and reality are two different things but I do spend money on it.

I assumed a lot of the stuff you needed done was rust like on my car.

Again I am in no position to judge. I paid $2400 for this boat and spent $2900 in bodywork (plus another 500 in parts I scrapped up from a parts car and about 300 in new parts I bought) and it's sitting in my garage now... see
