    The (old) Official Gun Thread.

    So I applied for my LTC-A (lg cap concealed carry) feb 9th. The issuing officer assured me that I would get it (luckily I live in a relatively conservative town). Said it would be about four weeks. In anticipation I went browsing at bass pro shops today. The guy working there was very nice...

    Way to break in your engine???

    Its possible he planned on doing the initial steps of the break in before he gave the car back. Even still I would reconsider having him do the work.

    Transmission Removal

    This. Use a 6pt box if you can, wear mechanics gloves and long sleves to protect your hands/arms as much as possible. I did it on a toyota truck which is pretty much the same setup. Its doable but sucks major donkey dick. In the future you may want to consider taking the engine/trans out...

    taking out the engine without a motor crane? possible? how to?

    ...and then they will wonder why the $150 hoist is now $160. You can keep it or sell it. Either way you get to keep some self respect.

    taking out the engine without a motor crane? possible? how to?

    Got mine new for $120, its a torrin big red from pep boys. Been outside for almost 5 years and it still works. If you cant afford that find a used one on craigslist. You will spend more than that if your cheap ass contraption fails and smashes your front end.
