It's getting there...

2700 miles south of border for the last 3 weekends. Cruiser did great with several hundred miles of offroad as well. Nice time of year, as all the snowbirds had left. Totally skunked on surf so we spent more time relaxing and fishing.

They cut your Huevos off if you pee in the bushes? Harsh!

I was trying to figure that out. I did not come up with that meaning. But then again, I didn't come up with anything that made sense.

Helping out a mudder trying to get his boat anchor 3FE back into the land of the living.

Machining the two front head bolts that are NLA.

@LS1FJ40 dont say I don’t give the 3FE love

I thought maybe it had something to do with sea turtle eggs but I like your idea better lol

What material did you use?

3fe love = 3fe turbo, I will be patiently waiting....

What material did you use?

Stainless 17-4PH. H900 heat treat but could do H1050

 

[scottryana]

Nah H900 will be about 180,000-200,000psi. I have no idea what the stock head bolts are. I was just curious how you were going to calculate torque values to keep them equal with the stock bolts.

One thing I THINK I see there is that the original head boot is a ROLLED thread, not a CUT thread. Rolled threads start off as smaller material and the threads are stronger. Only a possible observation, not a criticism.

Sure a rolled thread is cold worked but a machined thread has better form. Rolled thread are for mass production while machined threads are better quality. Either way thread shear is a non issue in this case. If someone goes crazy off the charts with torque the shaft will next down and fail not the threads.

Pretty sure it is so you don't pee on and destroy nesting eggs.

However, google "urine" and "eggs" to learn something new.!!!!!!.....??

Got around to popping the dent out of the passenger door. Lubed up the tumbler so now i have options of unlocking the truck. Lock actuator still seems to drag, going to pull it out in the next couple weeks and poke around. Found my main oil leak is the pan gasket and not the rear main THANK GOD. Next one to track is the one dripping from the intake runner onto the header/cat flange. Found a leak at the condenser, also found surplus R12 plus the machine to to do the service now all I need is the oil witch im trying to find 3 ounces of.

They often refer to your balls as "huevos" which means eggs in Spanish.

So yes, they are stating that if you pee in the bushes you'll get your huevos cut off.

Thanks to Kevin at Wagongear, got my cb antenna mount installed and my imaf installed, replacing my busted antenna.

Buried the multiplexer up behind the glove box, fits just barely! Happy to report an/fm is very strong and get a very fast HD Radio lock, now to buy a cb for the ashtray.

Just did the same after my FM antenna decided to radomly extend while in a parking garage. I fit my adapter over behind the lower dash speak but I think I might move it to where you put yours. I put a quick realease on the mount so I can drive around without the CB antenna installed since I almost never listen to the radio.

Looks like you are moving equipment for a band! Now you just gotta get some groupies to pose in there.

Technically on a Wednesday afternoon, but helped a friend tear down an abandoned house on a property he bought.
