Replaced 4 OEM shocks. DANG those retainers are pricey!

I'm unemployed still. :(

These guys are using some of the equipment I helped develop and trained them on a few years ago. One of the techs left for another job so they asked me to come and help finish the shoot.

That sucks. Sorry to hear that. Been there, done that. I'm gainfully underemployed right now. I guess the upside is that I love my job. The downside is that it pays next to nothing... Good luck. Be safe over there.
 
Spotted a nice 80 while visiting Kathmandu..

Well it got just a little bit hotter than that today on set here in India. BTW, this was NOT part of the script!!!! 600 on set (450 extras). No injuries, no fire alarms, no sprinklers, only one working fire extinguisher, no fire marshals. First fire truck arrived after 20 mins. Definitely not like shooting in LA.
How many bananas job is that to fix:)?

Finally dug into that radiator problem



Thermostat housing wasn't as bad as I thought. I'll make it flush with JB Weld though, just because.


This was a lot harder than it needed to be. I'm replacing the blind bolts that you unfasten through the front with through bolts and a large washer. Not being able to put a wrench on the back side of this made it a PITA. Sometimes I want to slap engineers for trying to be too clever by half.
 
Sprayed a new coat of Corrosion X HD. Damn new England road salt.
 
Got some 315's in the dura track flavor. Waiting on my ome 2 inch to get in, weather made ups late :(
 
Shoveled the drive and carved out some company for the 45 who's under road salt arrest in the drive and then took the 80 out playing in the snow around asheville nc for the weekend
