CAT INTERCEPTOR posted:I'm kinda tempted to trade in my VE for one of the last Commodores next year. Maybe even step up to some sort of HSV - I really doubt they will lose much value. Either that or keep the present car in good ocndition - I cant see it really losing too much value now, any Holden or Ford V8 or Turbo I6 I suspect will become collectors vehicles. I wanna see the bogan fist fights for the last HSV. That will be a bum fight of epic proportions.

CAT INTERCEPTOR posted:Q. What do you call a dead politican? Just ONCE I want to see one of our politicians make a statement that doesn't begin with "well the last mob did this and were better" (even when they're just as loving evil as the last mob). Tit for tat statements are what 5yr olds do, not adults on six figures a year!

And the US never got the really good 60- the HJ61 with the 12HT turbo diesel. They're cool trucks but front and rear leaf springs mean they still ride like an ox cart

Looks like a perfect excuse for a big bullbar on the insurance companys dime... "Look, the factory bumper is $1500 unpainted and by the time you paint it up and fit it you'll be looking at $2-3K. This bullbar is only $1800, how bout it?" Thats how i got my winch bar on the red hilux!

MustardFacial posted:It's the bush I want dead. I could care less for the berries. Blackberry bushes are nasty, invasive fuckers that ruin every lawn, driveway, tree, fence that is in it's way. They are impossible to kill without very harsh chemicals. I get it from an agricultural supply store. Its active chemical is Triclopyr so if you look for something like that your onto a winner. 100% fool proof way to kill poo poo with it is mix it 40ml in 1000ml of diesel and apply it to cut stems, it will gently caress up trees if you do that!

some texas redneck posted:So a catering truck decided to change lanes without checking this new invention called "mirrors", and clipped me. What the gently caress is wrong with your country???? You pull a stunt like sideswipe a vehicle and take off and your getting a couple of police officers turning up at your door, looking at the new colour and impact damage on your car, and hauling your arse down the station for some hard questions and a "So, you've heard of hit and run right?" if you do that poo poo here... No wonder you guys all carry guns. Seems shooting the cunts about the only way you'll get a serious response out of your police service...

Argh... Battling with rear axle bearings... Stupid semi floater designs that need a loving SST and special tools to remove.

Came down to having to buy a press for $250 and fabricating up an adapter bracket to make it all work and for $260 the local Toyota dealer will rip out the old bearings and seals and set up both sides, so they've got my axles and I'll have em back tomorrow.

loving stuck waiting for toyota to ring me to tell me my axle shafts are finished... Cant do anything more on the car until i can put the back wheels back on, because i'm ballsy, but not loving stupid enough to lift a 3200kg vehicle in the air on 4 jack stands on slightly compacted road base... 11 years and 280,000kms of gear changes does a hell of a number on the shifter bushings. That would go a long way to explaining why the gearshift was as loose as a high mileage hooker and shook like Michael J. Fox when you went over corrugations!

It's dark and cold outside, so I'm lying in my recliner in front of the fireplace, listening to the Dandy Warhols sipping Woodford Reserve Kentucky Derby bourbon. Not the worst way to spend a Saturday night!

Well a year ago today we got our furry little arsehole affectionately known as Isaac. Since then he's failed to cat and broke his leg getting off a table, treated us to months of squirtybum trying to diagnose his grain intolerance, managed to scare the poo poo out of himself when he snuck out of the house and the door closed behind him and now he's stolen my bloody recliner in front of the fire. Happy one year anniversary arsehat cat.

One bit goes in below the lock lever and pulls the button in, other piece goes in from the front of the glass and pulls the arm over. Theres a reason toyota stopped fitting the things to their 4wd's!
