    TWT -- The Wrenching Thread

    Welp, this sucks…. 2016 dash wiring harness melted!

    I believe @Malleus had a similar issue with his LX570. Dealership replaced his harness under warranty or at least partially under warranty.

    Holy hell…43 year old bushings

    I think you'll have to cut both sides, effectively turning the pins into three separate pieces in order to drop the spring out from the frame side mounts. A sawzall works fine for this as well. I don't believe a die grinder is going to be as effective as an angle grinder or a sawzall. A 6"...

    Anyone know this guy???

    No, but I do follow him on IG. He appears to have a super nice and capable rig, and he puts it to good use.

    Holy hell…43 year old bushings

    Shackle bushings are cake. Just wait 'till you get to the spring pins on the frame! The way i do them is to drill holes into the rubber and then smack with a BFH. Burning them out is a last resort for me due to the smell.

    Value of a pig.

    I own a handful of cruisers. The one that holds the least monetary value is the one I will never sell because it means the most to me. That's the shoddily built, poorly executed, rusty pig named Bucky. Just goes to show value, like beauty, is in the eye of the beerholder. :beer::beer::beer:

    Patch, I was not aware you were selling these. I can take this down if you prefer, or best case, it will be a bit of free advertising for your ingenious idea in sticker form. BTW, last year's COTR was a fantastic event. I'm sure they all were, but last year was my first. You and Lee...

    The Cruisers On The Rocks event at Windrock provides Patch Agan's @cruiserpatch simple little GMRS Channel / Frequency chart as part of their driver registration packet. It would be nice if we did something similar. For now, here's a copy of Patch's chart for folks to use. Take a pic of this...

    Clunking noise

    I thought mine were too, and I never in a million years would have thought that the hood would have made such a solid sounding clunk. I thought it would be a tinny, rattly sound, but it wasn't. It sounded like someone smacking the floorboard with a rubber mallet.
