THe NAC Lots-O-BFG KO2 Thread

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Made my rear driveshaft today. Durango slip is nice and tight. It's like 30-35 spline too. Pretty beef.

Also discovered the 3500 lb trailer axles are the perfect size to sleeve stock XJ shafts so i made a spare rear driveshaft.

Threw the DOM on the front truss. Should keep that dent free.

Repainted my tailgate. Looks brand new.

Helped adam make a new trackbar. His XJ drives way better now.

That MJ is sexy. Strange but my buddy and I were talking about MJs a couple weeks ago and how if I ever get one I would paint it burnt orange. Now I see one and want it. :thumbup:

Look at the bends in those linkages, that shit is custom.
 
Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

you should open a shop and call it Carsmelo's Custom Rides, bucking the trend of replacing Cs with Ks

the splint I'm wearing is anodized blue and has speed holes. OH SHIT I'M GOING SO FAST

I have a frame straightener. I might get to use it soon on my brother's car.

God damn I love having a chiropractor for a father.

The lower center/right side of my back (and wrapping around my side) felt all tight and weird since like last Tuesday/Wednesday. Figured go to the Dr. to make sure something wasn't wrong later this week but decided I'd ask him to take a look at me. He just did his thing and apparently I had a few ribs out of place and my spine was all fawked up. He snapped me into place and already I feel 10000000x better. There is even one part at the bottom of my spine that he couldn't fix yet because the muscles were too tight and he will finish that tomorrow once I loosen up.

I just made a dumbass over-engineering mistake. Lately my dishwasher has been acting up and not dumping the detergent in, or so I thought. I use these little gel-pack things of detergent rather than the powdered stuff, and everytime I'd open the door after it finished a cycle, the little gel pack would still be sitting in the detergent spot. WTF? It always used to work fine.

After a long period of dicking around with it, I finally figured out that I have to load the gel pack in a specific way, otherwise it gets hung up on the little door and won't fall out into the dishwasher. Guess I just got lucky the first few times.

Wow.

So that was from a month and change ago. The dishwasher continued to perform poorly even after I found that issue - which turned out to not be the issue at all. It just wasn't washing anything.

I changed to powdered detergent today and ran the same load of dishes & glasses through that I've been trying to get clean for two months. Opened the door and there was powdered detergent all over everything inside.

Wait a minute...

I went down in the basement and found that the ball valve for the water supply to the dishwasher was closed. I think I did this a while ago - literally months - because it was dripping slightly.

So my dishwasher wasn't washing because I had the water shut off to it. Not because of some misshapen detergent packet, but because it had no water.

I r smrt. :|

Ya Sean blew up the rear shaft in his mj, decided not to come. So Ken said he won't go bc he's a bitch. I mean, yea I'm a girl for temporarily throwing in the towel on my pos, but yea. In other news, I got my xj high centered on my rear diff in my driveway and had to have my neighbor pull me off in his f250

I did however, in proper fashion, bounce off the rev limiter before giving in to the strap.

Let Sean know he's a giant poon and that I have a shaft I can shorten for him and bring with me. How long does it need to be?
