They're heavy duty enough to decelerate a passenger in a collision without the seat coming loose. They may fail if you hit an immovable object at a high rate of speed with a heavy game strapped to them, but they will be fine for using to keep the game from sliding around during normal transport.
I had the same issue a while back on an aluminum radiator I bought for a previous truck. I went to a local radiator shop and they let me dig through their bin of random fittings until I found what I needed. You might have luck trying a similar approach.
Perfect! I just got back from a Salt River rafting trip in NE AZ, and the weather was perfect and the flowers were starting to pop. Everything from cactus flowers to bighorns to cardinals to a momma hummingbird feeding babies.
Is there a gap to the body? If not then I might be inclined to cut the top off the slider brackets so it doesn't transmit vibration to the cabin. Looks awesome!
If can get some pics of how it turns out I would appreciate it! I have considered plug welding studs to plates and then welding the plates to the frame, to eliminate the clearance issues but keep them removable for repainting.
It sounds like these aren't really catalytic converters, right? Does it just look like a cat and uses the spacers to not throw codes? They obviously aren't using much or any platinum at that price point. They look sweet and my cats are rattly, but I'm not sure if I want to deal non compliant...
Yes, that's what worked for me. Similar driving in a helicoil.
ETA: after thinking about it, I can't remember if the key was to screw it in or wind it up so the diameter was smaller. But you'll figure it out pretty fast.
I had the same thing last year, and just needed a half a can of refrigerant. As others have said, I would start there. I have all of the parts on hand to fully rebuild my system, but I haven't had any issues since last year.
I mean, the starter isn't easily accessible like on some vehicles, but it's not that big of a deal to pull the intake manifold. Not something you would want to do in a parking lot per se, but don't wait until you're stranded in a parking lot.
At this point I think it's more a question of...
If it has a mix of junk coils, I think I would spend the $64/each for new Denso coils and install new plugs at the same time, just to eliminate any possible issues being induced by s***e parts.
Yes. There are other factors in our fuel system that likely contribute more heat to the fuel though, right? Like the fuel pump being immersed in the fuel, and the fuel picking up heat from the engine and exhaust system. Those last two are things that people in this thread have been working to...
That's what I was thinking as well, is that slightly loose wheel bearings could cause a similar effect. It's at least something to check early in the trouble shooting process.
