    suggested way to fix Rod knock?

    Agreed. Once you've had a failure like that, the motor is contaminated with bearing shavings and you'll need to figure out why it happened. Just do a full rebuild, you'll thank yourself later.

    Hood strut defect?

    I put a pair of Monroe's on the Expedition. That's a big ass heavy hood and they're doing fine months later - I suspect you just got a dud.

    Well you're all usually semi-naked indoors. I can only remember one night where the three of you were topless on the front porch watching fireworks... :aigo: You know, that woman next door hasn't said a word to me since... Hmmm... This is a bonus! :evil2:

    I suspect we're known as "those crazy gun people with the giant dogs that have a bunch of Supras and always have hot women hanging around every weekend"... Did I mention I love my life? :D

    Wolves are a bad choice. They are way too wild. And a hybrid is even worse. You take the aggression of a wolf and couple it with the complete lack of human fear of a dog and you have a problem. I owned a Siberian Husky/Wolf mix years ago. It's a dog that will continually challenge your dominance...

    I will never own another breed other than an Akita. To me, for me, they are the perfect dog. They are very loyal, large, capable of defending themselves, they have the right energy level for me. (They aren't hyper - they aren't lazy). There are some caveats owning an Akita: #1 - The wolf is...

    The (old) Official Gun Thread.

    For my sniper rifle I use Hornady TAP (Tactical Application Police) ammo. I've got a bunch of different variants depending on the application. TAP Barrier, TAP Personal Defense, etc... I've carried LE rounds in my pistol at several times over the years. However these days I tend to run with...

    That pretty much describes our Akita's. They both defend the house and land around it. Logan (the male) takes patrolling the yard very seriously. (Birds aren't even allowed in the yard when he's out there - he clears the place out... ) When he's "on duty" is obvious, he's got this walk and...

    At Thunder Ranch, Clint Smith said it best: "You never take a handgun to a gun fight. If you know that you are going into trouble, take a long gun... A handgun is for fighting your way to your rifle which you shouldn't have put down in the first place" In other words, a handgun is a convenient...

    http://www.theboxotruth.com/docs/bot33.htm Rock salt is a joke. Adults are talking about serious business here - home defense against an assailant with known bad intentions and the willingness to break into someone's home - go do something else. Allow me to clarify something... When you...

    Laws like that just give the homeowner motivation to be sure the guy leaves in a body bag instead of handcuffs....

    And it's a moronically dangerous self defense load due to over penetration. All that Dirty Harry shit sounds really nice until you accidentally kill your neighbor because your hand cannon passed through the wall, the chimney and the guy next doors head... As I said recently: However for...

    Get yourself a cheap, well made 12GA shotgun. It's one of the most practical home defense guns, it's easy to handle, doesn't require a whole lot of skill or practice to deploy and generally scares the shit out of people. Also, your Weimaraner was bred as a gun dog, he'll think it's cool. :D A...

    Vacuum a little on the low side? Should I be worried yet?

    Vacuum a little on the low side? Should I be worried yet?

    Your rings probably haven't seated yet. I wouldn't sweat it. Get 1,000 miles on it and let us know how it's doing then.

    Any electrical gurus want to chime in please?

    It's likely a 100 ohm specialty resistor or a 100 ohm trimmer... You'll want to know the exact wattage, and since it appears to be missing standard markings, you'll probably want to contact the manufacturer, or try to find a schematic for the unit. What's the brand/model?

    The (old) Official Gun Thread.

    I used to have a Colt Delta Elite back in the late 80's early 90's. I know the 10mm well, it's what I carried prior to the .45. But it's a royal pain in the ass to get a hold of sometimes if you're not reloading it. That and the recoil (at least on my Delta) was a bitch to manage. Hard to do...
