Awesome Thank you for sharing. Wishes for many enjoyed miles

Looks like your ramps are triangles big feet. But something on the loading was a tad off. Maybe a little nose down a little uneven ground etc. Did the ramps try to fold back up? Were the ramp pads or feet too far off ground or the angle of feet didn’t “ bite” . Mine when level are...

Hook it up and use the landing gear to lift up and see what happens. Mine can lift my ‘97 2500 rear off the ground. I have heard and seen you tube videos of loading equipment where the trailer lifts rear truck wheels off the ground and truck and trailer roll. Yes, if your ramps don’t have...

You make charcoal. Then it is best to load it or inoculate it with nutrients and or some bio organisms. Then you amend soil with it. Charcoal has a lot of surface area and helps hold nutrients in soil so they don’t leach out. If you get a good blend of soil and loaded biochar it helps the...

Anyonoe make biochar? Biochar looks interesting but also appears time-consuming and labor intensive. I will flame off the garden at end of season and the winter weeds and turn over the soil.

We plant some marigolds in the garden too. But we will still have to use some seven dust. I heard drip irrigation is supposed to be better than wetting the leaves too frequently with a sprinkler.

Fresh veggies taste better. We redid our boxes this year. Still have to mulch between them, add the drip irrigation, and some trellises. It will be overcrowded in a month. We have some flower pots with herbs, some blueberries, and a few blackberries too. We don't have enough blackberries...

Thanks. There are homemade versions on Pinterest and instructibles made from a turnbuckle. I had sorta thought about a turnbuckle But didn’t think thru the lead turns and options instructibles gives decent instructions. Wouldn’t be hard to make but I bought one for the size at the tip...

So what do you think of those tools to make a hose clamp from wire ? clamptite My initial use would be for garden hose to make a low profile clamp for a new end.

I don't know why this took so long for me to figure out..... Anyway, maybe it will help someone. I needed to smooth my pitchfork handle again and reapply some boiled linseed oil. After hitting a few rougher areas I figured a way to sand it more uniformly. The video is shaky and just a...

I read something recently that suggested it is best practice to jack up a vehicle by the frame to unload suspension to grease the ball joints. It makes sense as sometimes I lift my bushhog to grease the tailwheel kicking it to rotate it as the lincoln pumps grease around the "pin". But then I...

Nice! Congrats on a job well done. Should last a long time. Enjoy the handshaker as a nice functioning one is cool. Yeah, I hear ya KISS Keep It Stupid Simple is generally a good policy but he did have a compound problem: broken stud ball, and the clutch disc did have a broken spring (not...

If you can find a turnbuckle about the right size that can be modified that might work. Leave enough room for a jam nut. If the extended pilot was the issue it might squeal or make noise plus I would think the interference of soft metal would wear away pretty quickly.

Needs to be left hand all thread or bolt on one side and L/R nut. If both are right and a regular coupler nut is used it won't extend or contract turning the nut like an adjustment. Could still work just has to be sorta unassembled to work by position on assembly. I think the clutch not...

Glad you found a smoking gun. Clutch release and launch problems can be elusive. Let us know which clutch you go back with and how you like it.

No, I have not used it but am planning on looking at it in my hand to compare to standard options then decide. I posted it to show at least someone else believes the length of bearing surface is important and some don’t seat flush with crank end. Also, I like it might help square seating.

Allstar bushing looks like it is at Summit https:// www.summitracing.com /parts/aaf-all26112/make/chevrolet

The pilot bearing depends on what's left. The bread/soap/grease method I have heard of but never tried. Depends on how well it seals to your drift/punch thingy could use a little electrical tape to tighten it up maybe. Use a rag to cover it I imagine it can be a messy process. I have used a...

I have a question though for my next time at some future date and my knowledge base. At the coupling of transmission to transfer case. Do ya'll grease the splines or oil it and let the transmission oil splash lube it? I think the overfill recommendation is to help lube this?????? I think I...

I agree Rockabillyrat. In my picture I have a needle bearing. It sorta looks like the bushing but that is just the end picture and it has a bushing and race/cup assembly iirc and the bushing part holds the little seal to keep clutch dust out of the needles and grease. The first needle bearing...
