Oh yea, not much room on a 911 either. I spent several hours doing the head temperature sensor. Getting the wire grommet back in place was the hard part.

Idk, it was a free prize for finding the pelican in a picture on the Facebook page.


Probably will be a whole roll of stickers.

I've heard stories of those bolts taking days of applying pb blaster (or something similar) to them every day for many many days before they finally let go.

I've yet to experience it, and don't ever want to.

I know from experience that the space is tight to work in, but can you get anything in there to wake 'em up (hit the fcuk out of them), or heat them up?

pst...don't tell anyone....I've been known to write 'a t-shirt would be nice' in the remarks section of the surveys they send out after purchases....I've got three so far....

I like the numbered 550 Spyder mugs they were giving away a while back...I've got two of them...

I like the t-shirts, they just the white cotton ones but they are nice and light. Perfect for this heat. I wear them all the time.

Yes, we were able to get in there, we tried from the top, from the bottom with all kinds of tools and lube. If that bolt was a hooker, it got trick f*$&ed and still wouldn't budge. They ended up stripping out.

I just counted 19 dog toys on the floor. I guess I don't need to look up to count them. poor underprivileged dog children.

I get scolded if I leave a empty beer bottle on the end table for a little while.
