Crank windows inevitably mean there's an option for power windows. Means the mechanism inside the door is different, and the door trim panel is different between the two. Means you need to tool up for two different door designs. Means either the wiring harness is different or (usually) it's...

It's one thing to make something the same shape, quite another to achieve competitive properties of strength, ductility, etc.

There's a reason you can no longer get a 2 wheel drive 4 cylinder 5-speed-manual standard cab Ford Ranger with no power windows or cruise control or carpet on the floor. Despite the amount of online crowing about how there aren't any cheap vehicles on the market any more, that's mostly because...

Meet up 6:30 for 7:00 departure as usual.

I am in if the weather holds.

Who designed this? https://www.threads.net/@firerock31/post/DIuno_cJruw?xmt=AQGz7RtvaqRFgThDFoFKE0fmvMVSjyeL69veqVD7sbDlvg Every other truck is open underneath so that this doesn't happen. Aero covers have openings and gaps intentionally to stop this happening.

Wrist pin circlips are best installed with the gap facing the crankshaft. If it's pointing sideways then the acceleration of the piston acts in the direction of popping it out of its groove!

Another brilliant F9 production...

It's about time.

He'll escape liability; just look who's in charge.

It's getting there. Forecast for Thursday calls for overnight low of 2 ... gets cold fast when the sun goes down. Next week the overnight lows are coming up.

If it came to that ... Charging $5 for access to a 240V 30+A circuit at an overnight campsite, independently of what you are using it for, wouldn't trouble me. Plugged in overnight completely empty to completely full would be $6ish for the power, and most people wouldn't be doing that. For a...

Whoa. Surprise. And now, we have one leader that can't keep tires on their bike, and another that can't keep their bike running.

The RPM measurement issue had to do with SAE J2825, which specifies the test RPM. "Any speed greater than idle" as written into the bylaw is a problematic requirement, because that could include bouncing off the rev limiter, and nothing will be compliant with that.

100% probability of insider trading. Who's going to bust them??

I've been to Australia; did a few road trips in a hire car for a few days to get the hang of driving on the other side of the road before picking up a motorcycle for the rest of the trip. Sydney feels like Vancouver. I stayed in Katoomba for a few days to do some exploring around the Blue...

Same here; went to Hockley for lunch. No other riders there at the time.

At Hockley now. Yes, I rode. Bit windy, and roads are damp ... but generally OK.

Driveway is currently covered in snow. I'm planning to ride my motorcycle to Hockley for lunch tomorrow. :ROFLMAO:
