  1. Weld’m shut. It’s a European fascination. Rivets in drill-through oil ports. When you pull the remaining 2 rivets you’ll see there’s no bore shoulder for the rivets to expand into. They rattle loose.

    On the Liehberr I pull the upper rails, carve the rivets out and spot weld the ports shut. Otherwise they’re a time bomb. It’s not a matter of IF, but WHEN, they come loose and fall out in service.

  2. Phoenix rose up from the ashes year(s) go. 

    Maxidyne is all her previous “grrrl” girl monickers. However, she turned over a new leaf, she’s longer a grrrrl. She publicly denounced political arguments as fruitless because, to quote her, “everyone has already made up their minds anyway”. No more sucking the life blood out of beer drinking good’ol boys, conservatives, Republicans, sane people, etc, to satisfy her insatiable liberal appetite.

  3. Loss of oil pressure will make your Jakes dysfunctional at the lower RPM range. Mack had multiple updates for that engine to get brakes to work. Low oil pressure to top of engine (brakes) is often a sign of worn engine bearings. If you see a sudden drop in oil pressure it’s a bad sign.

    They didn’t use deadly force for a DUI arrest, they used it for apprehending someone who assaulted an officer and had a weapon.  They didn’t just shoot him for the DUI.  It’s hardly “dreaming up” a charge, someone called on him because he was passed out behind the wheel.   

    Stop arguing dude, she’s feeding on you. I promised Maxi I’d never use the bloody she-lion pic again and I’ll uphold that.

  5. Test me on this Maxi. Next time a cop stops you for Jay walking tell him your innocent, point out he’s escalating the situation, cat claw his face when he touches you, grab his taser and shoot it at him or his partner. Nothing bad will happen.

  6. I experienced that too. Got an unfair traffic ticket. Decided to play Colombo and represent myself. I went to court against the police officer and he told the Judge I acted “cordially toward him”. I won, ticket dropped. I think it’s a courtroom prerequisite for you potentially getting leniency if the officer confirms you were cooperative and treated them respectfully.

  7. Especially low since the city’s burning and the police can’t arrest anyone because they’re pending liquidation or afraid of liability. Consider what the rate of incarceration would be if the lawlessness of the last thirty days was properly & throughly prosecuted. Cooked book 🥣 soup. 

    May even see a flight path East/West/South as your productive, law abiding, citizens leaving and a renaming of the twins to “New Detroit”. 

    🎅🏿- Ho Ho Ho, let’em all go!!!! 🤷🏿‍♂️

    Actually, I take an economic view rather than a political view of excessive punishment. If we were literally going to removes eyes, hands, feet, etc. as a punishment, while some would be happy to see "justice done", our economy would be a lot less productive because we'd have a lot of people that couldn't do much work because various useful organs and limbs had been removed. You can see this in the states that levy heavy punishments where businesses cannot expand due to lack of workers because many workers are in jail.

    If you want to see the crime that really causes a breakdown in society, looks at some of the pension funds that have been looted by big business, leaving thousands and even millions to poverty.

    Agree, I’d rather they not have funded the Vietnam war with social security dollars. 

    Disagree. The workplace is more parts dictatorship than democracy. Raising my children to conform/respect/comply to societies laws prepares them to work in the dictatorship. Raising them to buck the system, disrespect authority and view selfish ambition as a high ground over collective conformity won’t help them succeed.

    I’m sitting here as we speak waiting for a sheriff deputy to come escort (hopefully) two ladies from Washington who are off their flipping rockers. They yelled at my sister in-law her 4 month old and 7 year old for walking past their camp on a public road. We are on a government campground which is public. When my brother heard them yelling every profanity for walking past their camp he as well as the rest of us were in shock. Being the polite one he asked them what had they done wrong for such a response and it’s not ok to yell at his family like that. They then started screaming he’s a racist effing pig, they are filing rape charges, calling the fbi on us and screaming black lives matter and got real pissed when I said all lives matter. They then proceeded to stomp into our camp continuing on like that screaming every buzz word phrase and profane word at 3 families minding their own business in their camp sites and taking down plate numbers and threatening to give them out to black lives matter groups and Antifa so they can be avenged. I’m totally in shock. Can not believe that anyone would act like this truly unprovoked. I left the campground and my belongings there and contacted the sheriffs office and a deputy is trying to sort this out. I politely asked him if they didn’t leave if he’d stick around long enough for us to pack up and leave because I truly feel they are very dangerous. I feel like an idiot even saying that but this is honestly the first time I’ve ever been frightened for my families safety because of another human being. 

    The.....whaaaa? Commit rape without actually, ya know, “throwing the coals”, or “grabbing the goods”? Liberal situational ethics in overdrive. It doesn’t matter if it’s true, you make your own story that fits your situation and bend it to fit. 

    They were sitting around the campfire stirring each other and stroking each others victim switch. Honing it. Thumbing and flicking it. Once the sist’a energy level peaked it needed an outlet. Enter stage left......unexpecting white family. Now it’s next level time... the competition to posture. If you’d have walked up and finger flicked baby girl #1 in the forehead she’d have screamed, fallen to the ground, shook, rolled and moaned while baby girl #2 recorded it on her phone crying “OMG, OMG, OMG!!!”.

    We did this to an 05’ 427 granite and now it’s a beast!

    We wouldn’t trade that AI 460 in for an E-Tech. My buddy hauls 110K all day moving equipment and loves it. I do wince a little when I see a 12 liter pounding that much horsepower/torque & payload.

    I have a 06 AI-350 with the Allison automatic that has low power. Flatbed, empty truck. It pulls okay on flat ground but falls on its face when going up hills. Have to hold it flat on the floor to maintain speed it seems like. Fuel filters have been changed, checked for codes using tech tool, only has brake ecu codes. Fuel pressure at idle is 62 psi, 68-72 psi under load. Put a boost gauge on, needle was erratic hit like 30lbs and broke my gauge. Boost seems to come up really slow. Haven’t had a chance to pressure the charge air cooler, but boots appear good and no visible or audible boost leaks. Not sure what parameters I could possibly change, torque limit, speed, etc. Compression test shows good, injector cut out test feels good, did the injector/ unit pump run up test good as well. Asking for any help please, thanks

    Mack had issues with that vintage of tier 3 engine. If you have all your vital signs then you need to take it step further to get it to perform. It's very fixable.... click on link.

     

     

  12. Doesn't do much good now (-2013), but I have the high resolution files of these posters if anyone needs it. Got it from the guy from Minnesota who made them. Too big to post anywhere on here unless Barry wanted to make them accessible for posterity.

  13. Wow, she’s sharp. Ive seen her, but never listened to her give a commentary.

    Particularly pointing out that no other modern cultures do what the black movement has done in terms of culturally reverse engineering themselves. The Afro-Americans went from upholding hero’s of the slave era the hero’s of the faith, to hero’s of the civil rights movement. Now look at them? The only hero of modern movement they have to glorify is an ex-con  druggy.....and there’s no mistaking they gave him hero status in their minds and heart. Same with the last half dozen bozo types, Trayvon, Michael Brown, etc.

  14. Got a good look on how the crooked left operates via the foothold in our state. After Emperor Evers failed in his unconstitutional attempt to suppress the citizens of Wisconsin he made a call to the Republicans who thwarted his attempt. He had his staff record the staged conversations with staged “gotcha” questions asked by Evers and entered them into a public record. They slipped to the Milwaukee Journal that the recording existed. Legally, per open records, the Journal came to acquire the recordings.

    We’ve had the swamp drain now corked by Evers and it’s beginning to fill and stagnate again. To show his new found sexual prowess he’s flying an LBGT flag over the capitol for a month.

  15. You ever ask yourself "Why do nearly all the intelligent thinkers of our culture appear in black and white photos?". Objective thinking is has become ancient and outdated.

    When the state intervenes to insure the indoctrination of some doctrine, it does so because there is no conclusive evidence in favor of that doctrine. - Bertrand Russell

    The mechanical mind has a passion for control - of everything except itself. Beyond the control it has won over the forces of nature it would now win control over the forces of society of stating the problem and producing the solution, with social machinery to correspond. - L. P. Jacks

  16. 🎼 “Because I owe my soul to the company store 🎶 “.

    My company has the benefits system rigged so my IRA can’t be managed concerning any company stocks. So I pay a broker fee to keep my funds properly managed....however, they can’t manage my company stocks. The stock can never be sold or traded unless I go in and do it manually. Naturally they manipulate any manipulative. 

  17. No. Been watching. Call me a jerk, but I did an obituary “wellness check” today.....hey 🤷🏿‍♂️ it’s the age of internet, gotta make sure. He is alive. If the great one ever died I want to know so I can pour a Moxie into the earth. 

    My only guess is they caught him making his famous township board long pork and he’s in jail. He’s been getting hammered on by those fools.
