Things are getting pretty ugly here. Sadly, rent is not always cheaper. The price of homes has dropped like a rock so if you have the credit to get into one the payments can be pretty reasonable. On the other hand with all the forclosures the demand for rentals is very strong. The cost of rent has n...

It doesn't snow much and doesn't stay on the ground for long. I did have snow on the ground for almost a month one time several years ago. We are at the altitude where if you go a few hundred feet higher you get quite a bit of snow and a few hundred feet lower hardly any. In any case it's been blood...

A couple of issues. The weather has been a little rough, kind of cool, rain and snow etc. The second is that I'm in the middle of a bit of a relapse of my CFS (chronic fatigue syndrome). I've been getting just about nothing done on anything. The weather is expected to get a little better and hopeful...

The Spree doesn't really have front shocks. Just a spring in a tube with a rubber bump stop. This is one of the reasons they are interesting when you get them to go fast. The rear does have a damper.

One of the keys to using the Permatex is to make the coating incredibly thin. So thin you can see through it. So thin you can't get it any thinner. On my big ugly truck I had chronic overheading problem. Finally took the top off of the radiator and discovered it was full of blue silicone worms. The ...

Hello, I will try to decode your cryptic message. If you take the back pulley apart and install washers to hold the two halves farther apart a couple of things will happen.
