New to me LWB. Runs, drives, shifts well, very quiet and smooth. Oil level is fine, not sure what weight it is though. Been driving it for two weeks. Two days ago it just suddenly is making this ticking sound I can hear from inside, and very distinctly outside. It started after I drove to work...

OK, so I'm trying to figure out how to go about drilling, then securing the bolt into the vertical holes on the crush cans on the ARB. It's an 04 Disco, with an earlier DII bumper going on. If I drill the hole, fine, I can do that, but then there is an obstruction (factory welded piece) in the...

You should not run in an earthquake -- easy to fall down, all that. Duck and cover, all that. Find a doorway, and if that fails: http://www.freegifhub.com/i/earthquake.gif Find a Disco. Anyway, it's the first thing I thought to do.

First, how do hou remove the nut? Get someone one the crank handle? What else should I know?

...what terror attacks have they stopped? http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/jun/06/us-tech-giants-nsa-data When will someone who actually works in the government just stop and say, "Uh... excuse me, is this legal?" When will the press actually get angry about all of it? Until we have...

Sad day to hear that Tim Samaras and team were killed. He was the sort of level headed, easy-going one of the bunch. Not the one I would have expected to get into trouble.

This photo alone says a lot about gun control. The attack took place in the street with people watching and taking pictures instead of shooting the attackers with guns, they shoot with their cameras. The police took 20 minutes to get there. A woman officer took the two down. :bigok: And as...

Obama today: I found out about the IRS targeting certain groups from a news report. In the news today: http://www.cnn.com/2013/05/13/us/justice-ap-phones/index.html?hpt=hp_t1 Most of the rest of the world just turns on the TV to get their news.

What is it that causes the diff to stay locked after manually unlocking it after being off-road? I seem to remember something about this being caused by "winding up" or spooling up of the differential? But it's one of those things I've never actually asked about or figured out. Any 4x4 tech...

Bombing on Monday Rumors that a "Saudi" is under guard in hospital -- not a dark skinned person, not an Arab, not a middle easterner -- specifically a Saudi Then we are told it is all a mistake. Then, just today, we start seeing photos of what look like several SeALs at the marathon, near the...

So, I've never like the light tan leather steering wheel anyway. And the leather is getting all old and nasty on it, so I need to do something. Find a replacement? How hard is it to pull one off and swap it out for a new/used item? Find someone to recover it? Anyone do this? I would want to...

I'm proud of these business owners, and I hope the government won't find anyone else to sell or deliver they're insane purchases as of late. http://cnsnews.com/blog/gregory-gwyn-williams-jr/firearms-companies-restricting-sales-government-agencies-areas When it comes to the recent ammo...

What pointers would you give for bending and fitting new brake lines into a IIa?

http://www.feinstein.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/files/serve/?File_id=10993387-5d4d-4680-a872-ac8ca4359119 This is just a summary of the bill that is coming in January. But in case you cannot wait for it: 120 named firearms to be illegal. Any gun with 10 or more rounds in magazine. AR's and...

So, I'm a gun owner. Not a 'collector' but I've got a few and I've had a few. Some of you heard about the mall shooting here in Portland on Tuesday before the school shooting on Friday of last week -- it was a crazy week wasn't it? A couple of things. First, I happened to be shopping for my...

The '03 BMW we have, a 325i sport trim, has 186k on it, and it's getting a bit small for our growing kids. We've been spending about $1000.00 every six months on simply replacing items that are going bad. Although we like the car... We've been wanting a wagon and we've been wanting AWD. The...

A couple of questions for all of you. But first, some qualified statements. I'm not really much of a Romney fan. I don't think he's evil like we are lead to believe, but I find him boring and leftist even. I don't really think he's going to turn things around -- in fact, with Bush and...

Ruger Mini-14 Not as sexy as an AR, but not as poseur either. I almost sprung for an AR, but I know too many people who've actually earned one to just randomly buy one for myself. I may get an aluminium hand guard, and I'll need at least a 10 round magazine. This is an early model that can...
