Solid machines.

 

[UpnAdam]

I have one too, I've yet to really try it out yet though besides boogering a Chinese hoe head back on

I love this machine. I haven't found anything it won't do. I'm 2 for 2 getting broken bolts out. One was a head bolt in the block and the other was a stud in the back of a brand new steering pump.

Hell that alone was worth buying it lol.

Back to the temp/speed settings. Mine has "autoset" and it is actually pretty close to where it should be. The only place I really need to switch it to manual controls is for overhead stuff.

So I need to score more 2 inch tube before this weekend.

I also think I'll make a pulley installer because I'm tired of renting one. It's free to make I guess you could say.

The brakelines need to be done as well. So my approach will be to start at the axle end and work back to the master, throw a few extra loops in the slack and finish it off. I have the tube benders already so it's just a matter of doing it. I do need to go borrow the flare tool...

I've been watching some install videos on the cage. Seems like theres some holes to drill and measurements to mark so I'll try to do that throughout the week as busy work when it gets late.

I've been slacking on getting the headers completely sand blasted due to shitty equipment. It would be great to tackle those at least by the end of the weekend so I can start the painting process with this lovely hot weather.

I've found this thing to always push way more wire then what I need. Maybe I'm just slow and inexperienced but it makes me rush too much.

It's definitely not set to how I used to weld but it just took a few welds for me to get it figured out.

 

[Bent77]

You'll laugh, I weld better with the radio on, i guess i follow the timing.
But i rarely run the wire as fast as they say to

Today was hot, tomorrow is going to be stupid.

It's been crazy. I can't even go in the garage till after 7.

 

[skunked]

It's 95 in my garage right now. Counterproductive to say the least.

 

[wetoolowdingbangow]

Brutal. I'm thinking I should just start power napping when I get home then stay up later working. It's a 3 day weekend coming up at least.

To top it off I'm doing the brakes/cv on the shitbox honda. Those ghey screws that keep the rotor on are hell. I got one out and the other is solid frozen.

Impact screwdriver, easy peasy.

Yeah that was what the first youtube video said...face to palm. Gonna see if I can borrow one tomorrow.

Ok will do thanks!

HEY!!! This isn't Honda tech! Either hijacks or truck builds! Stay on task!

 

[wetoolowdingbangow]

Some things I made to press the damn pinion bearings in.

 

[F.S.F.W]

Need a bigger tool to press the race on now. Lol

 

[wetoolowdingbangow]

Races are in already. Just re used the old bearings for those.
