Another day gone by

Word out on whuzgoin’ on with BCE and FAM so go give ’em some love, let ’em know your thinkin’bout ’em.

Found my issues on Buffalo, not as bad as I suspected and totally on me for being ignorant of that particular ‘upgrade’ that GM did on those axles. Currently back on line with a bandaid, will pull things apart and do full repair this weekend. Yup, gotta pull the axle again, but at least the new bearing and seal are NOT the problem (sorta are sorta aren’t)

For some dagblamed reason, they made the bearing/race/seal as a single press in unit for this model. Pricey as witch too. $45/ea,,, And whutIdihdn know was that there is a ‘sealer’ that is supposed to go on them when you press them in. Like thread locker, to hold them in place. (why I had to use the torch and other tools of destruction to pull the old burned up races out.)

The whole unit was shifting around and lettting the goo out around itself. Seals and bearing are still good, just need hammered back home and sealed up proper-like. And Right Now, for the band-aid till I can fix it, I cleaned up the area with acetone, slapped some grey goo RTV on the joint and wrapped that point in Gaffer’s tape (yeah, I still have some rolls of that stuff) to keep it from slopping around for the next couple days. Buffalo has a lame paw wrapped up, until The Surgeon can get in there and fix it proper,,,, Hate doing shit twice, but thats what happens when you don’t fully investigate the unknown, no? On me, full admission, now I pay that price.

RTFM, (if they give you one) or dig it out of the netz if they don’t. Didn’t, and it shows,,,,could’ve been much worse,,, only leaked while she was sittin’; just made a damned mess of her stalls in the process.

On to the other stuff,,,, I’m of two minds about this (s)election cycle. Looks like a good showing is being made by Trumped,,, Not that I think there is an actual chance in hell he’ll make it anything, (lots of reasons behind that) and the attitude from the Shaministration is ‘its in the bag’,

But,,,,,

Oblammy (the real power behind the curtain IMO) is on record of running to Slo-Joe telling him to ‘do something’ either sit-down and bow out, or ,,,,,

AND the sociomedias are ablaze in fear,

Something ain’t goin’ well in Libtard Land,,, Cracks are showing more, and while I have no doubt they can actually ‘DO’ anything, (other than shit the bed) they DO have the ability to do a ton of damage on the way OUT,,,,

and the Immivasion continues apace,,,,

And Guv Abbot, not a patriot but doing patriotic things, TL Davis’ take on things here ,,,,

the wording is specific, this MAY be the spark that starts the divorce proceedings. That there are already another 25 states standing behind Texas on this (How about standing ALONG SIDE you weanies!!! Post similar worded Decrees and let them know THEY ARE TARGETS FOR TREASON CHARGES),,,,,

No rush, right? Things like this take a minute to ‘ferment and ripen’ . Don’t WANT a war, but I am just one trigger boy in a world full of many.

and I ain’t gettin no younger,,,,

More laters,,,, Keep on livin’
