Welcome to my brain. It’s messy. It’s interesting. And it’s all connected if you stick around long enough. "Believe Nothing: no matter who said it, even if I have said it, except it agree with your own reason and common sense. Siddhartha Guatamo, the Buddha.

Satyrday wowsers and relaxin’

Whuz a Dio do to relax?

He works on shit,,,, Or kayakz but waters still way tooooookkkoooooollddddd fer that’un.

I did the idler arm on Buffalo today, have new pitman arm to install, but didn’t see need. Thank goodness: that thing is in a seriously jammed tight, ain’t gettin’ at nuthin easy, gotta take it damned near OUT of the vehicle to get the main nut and use the pitman arm puller,,,. Very intimidating project,,, But once the new Idler arm was in place, things went from loosey-goosey to STIFF!!!,,,, COOL!!!! Didn’t wanna do that arm anyways,,,,

Alignment,,, Went WAY smooth,,, was even able to do a caster sweep with the end result right at 0, where it belongs. Both front tires were positive cambered, but I knew that,

not so much now. Negative 1 degree per and a zero sweep, doesn’t pull at all, and steers like she should, without trying to jerk the wheel out of my hands when crossing road gaps.

And I did some work on Bloo too! Pulled that harmonic and looked at the old seal. Wasn’t the outer ring leaking, it was definitely the seal, Pull it out, and install new, that really does feel tighter on the shaft than the one I just pulled. Letting the RTV around the outer ring cure up overnight before I do anymore under that hood. Tomorrow, no rush,,,

Spent a bit with Da today too. Has some work that needs done towards his ‘house sellin’ plans’ Unfortunately, it must be doen snail mail,,, no other way to contact the owner of the property he is eyeballin’.

that means I need to figure out what my printer needs. My handwriting has gone down hill over the last few years with my increased level of typing (and old age,,,)

sigh,,,

Or I just pay a buck at the library and let them print it out on theres,,,, Sure seems a lot less headachy that way (and tha’s whuts eyez gonna do!)

It’s been quite the relaxin’ sorta day! And SPRING weather to boot!!!

More laters,,, domestics tomorrow and more Bloo funs afterfact,,,

LLLLL!

    Yo bro! Good to see yer still kicking! Re: The Printer
    Be aware that HP went over to a ‘subscription model’ for MOST new-ish printers… the one I got during the Fight for Gran#2 suffers from that.

    I get ink, sure… but I’m limited in pages allowed, with a $$$ charge if I go over the monthly allotment.

    Just food for thought as they started phasing out print cartridges for models that didn’t/don’t connect to the net…

    So there may be issues, and I wanted to give you a heads up

    • Not interested in buyin’ a new one. the one I have is ‘ancient’: it was the portable HP that I bought for while out touring, 22years ago. I doubt its gonna print doodly at this stage LOL (and needs to be sent to the recycler honestly) I’ll pay the library to print the very few things I need printed if need arises.
      But definitely, thanks for the heads up: thats a load of boochit ‘subscription printing’,,, may as well not sell the damned things.
