  3. They're actually thinking about getting rid of daylight savings, mostly having to do with the rise of E-commerce, and the shopping patterns of online consumers.

  5. Would this be a bad time to point out America wasn't officially a nation until the constitution was ratified in 1789, a full 13 YEARS after the Declaration of Independence???

  6.  @thirzapeevey2395  You mean the articles of Confederacy, not Confederation, and no, that did not make us a nation, it made us a British colony with no provisions for taxation for the nation under said articles. Still doesn't change the fact the constitution wasn't ratified by the continental congress until 1789. While most still consider 1776 as our birth year, it wasn't made official until 13 years later.

  7. REEEEE, YER SPOSED TO HAVE A BASEPLATE ON THE GRINDER TO BRACE AGAINST REEEE!!! I mean, it's only stupid if it doesn't work, but the chance of it getting caught and bucking is fairly high here, so maaaaaybe consider reattaching it?

  8.  @Mikey-wf9py  Either magnets, vice grips, or a clamp of some kind to hold it in place, and then they just weld the bolt to the frame, turning it into a stud.

  9.  @notarealdruglord  Genetically speaking, we're all monkeys in the end. Besides, sometimes yer the monkey lending a hand, other times yer the tech in charge directing traffic. It definitely goes both ways in this business & you gottah learn to laugh at yourself. That being said, I wasn't necessarily talking to you; you just chose to get offended, that's all...

  10. Actually, a lot of guys call that the 'Jesus bolt' because if it pops off and the steering wheel gets all loose as a result, you go 'JESUS!!!' Also, if you're going to start praying to someone, it might as well be him, because not even God can help you at that point...

  13. Am I the only one here wondering what happened to the assault blow gun? I mean, he ruined a perfectly good Airsoft AR-15, he might as well use it!

  14. Russia is already invading the U.S. the same way Mexico is... Although it's more accurate saying we're being invaded by Russians looking for a better life because Russia is experiencing a serious brain drain right now as millions flee to escape being conscripted into the army.

  15. Yaknow, they make brushes specifically to wash the blue stuff off the white walls on tires; my OCD is not happy, soooooo.....re?

  16. Fun Fact: Automotive windshields are designed with asymmetrical impact resistance. In English it basically means it takes ten times the amount of force to damage the windshield from the outside than the inside. This is done for safety's sake should one ever go head first through the windshield in an accident by not wearing their seat belt (RAAaaay, looking at YOU!!!) It also ensures it's easier to remove in an emergency should you need to kick it out in order to make a quick escape.

  27. Everyone kept telling Ray how 'easy' it is to work on a Rubarsu, he finally gets one, and it does THAT!!! 🤣🤣🤣 They really ARE easy to work on; just not THAT one...

  28. You are SO lucky Ray!!! Do you know HOW many guys would LOVE to have one of their own always coming in clutch with food, and assistance and love????

  29. Note the use of a dead-blow linear impact driver on the timing gears; thus the true difference between a pro in a shop & some rando jacked up in a Walmart parking lot at 2 in the morning....

  30. 40 Degrees here in Denver, but for the Mile High City in January, that's SUPER warm! When the polar Vortex hit, on the last day, it was actually colder in Denver than it was in Antarctica!!!

  35. I've had wheels so rusted to the hub, it required a ten pound sledge directly to the steel wheel (without warping it) to remove.

  36. Brake-Kleen is great'n'all, but you have GOT to get a vapor honing machine!

  37. To me, there's just something fundamentally wrong about a transverse V-8; then again, one mustn't pre-judge and it depends on how the car identifies...

  38.  @nunyabisnass1141  All machines need maintenance & repair, but more specifically, the solvent in the machine needs to be replaced periodically like an oil change, but more frequent.

  39.  @nunyabisnass1141  Chances are, his shop just wouldn't use it enough to even justify the initial expense, but places that do a lot of internal engine, transmission and drivetrain work usually have them because they're constantly in use.

  42. Pro-tip: Use a large pipe wrench (and cheater bar if necessary) adjusted to get the best grip on the lower control possible and then use that to flex it down and into place.

  45. The bad news is a replacement seal retainer would have to come out of a bone yard. The good news is, being as common as it is it'll be an easy find should the owner ever feel the need to replace it.

  48.  @bradhaines3142 You bend it back into place while it's still soft. Also, by doing so, you actually return some of the flexibility to the plastic once it cools back to room temp. tl;dr = The tabs work as good as new if you do it right!

  49.  @bradhaines3142 I hit upon this years ago just playin' around in a junk yard. I wasn't exactly playing at the time as I did have a clear goal, but was in a place I didn't really have to worry about breaking anything other than the parts I was trying to retrieve. One brain fart later, and it turned into one of the greatest discoveries I ever made!
