  1. A result of our strict duopoly in politics. You only can chose from the Democrat or Republican/Trumpist that bubbles to the top in most races. Coupled with party manipulation of voting districts that results in politicians choosing their voters through gerrymandering rather than voters having their say in the matter. More than a few states are controlled by representatives elected by the minority of voters.
  2. Here's what my clip looked like when it came out of my turbo. Car had 60K+ miles on it and came with a worn input shaft in the spares that had already been replaced. Regardless of failure mode, boring the crank for a later stye roller bearing seems prudent when the crank is out.
  3. I wonder if you might revisit your original tube-beading plier attempt, but create your beading profile right up against the pivot point of the pliers to get proper leverage. You could also tack a rib to the handles to address the flex, those pliers aren't getting any prettier. Although for this sort of tool I'd start with a Vise-grip plier for the compound leverage and adjustability.
  4. Over here we have been told for generations that the second amendment is our defense against government tyranny. I guess it's left to the gun owner to determine who is a tyrant.
  5. I would buy a little battery-powered felt pen that electro-plated gold/inert metal onto bare electrical contacts!
  6. Re: Import duty into the US. It wasn't much on my system, but the company that bills you will tack on more in service charges. And Trump has promised more tariffs on imports as well, so don't dawdle.
  7. The service note devote several pages just to the various states of the headlight lift mechanism. Worth a look before going too deep into troubleshooting.
  8. Speaking of turbo upgrades, the manifold is also available with a T4 flange option.
  9. This Supreme activist court, which seems quite happy to return to the legal realm of the founding fathers on other issues, completely forgets what compelled them to throw off a monarchy as it creates an Imperial presidency, above the law and unaccountable to the citizens. The hubris of immediately trying to overturn his hush money conviction with this decision, as if it had some relevance to Official acts, tells you all you need to know about his felonious intent.
  10. I wish We were only broken at his level, but it's nationwide. His local followers, having declared public schools evil centers of indoctrination, and having failed in their efforts to create a Christian conservative public school district, have now defunded our local school district, forcing closures and a desperate plea for private donations to scrape by this fiscal year, not to mention student and staff departures. Our state super-majority party just voted for a party platform to cease public funding for any education past 12th grade. Hard to see a future in a fact-resistant tribe that thinks democracy, elections, schools, medical care, science, clean energy and the justice department are bad things, but I'm afraid we're going to find out.
  11. I recall having to peel back a bit of carpet to access the aerial, and it was a bear to get out of the confined space. Look for the smallest replacement unit if you need a new one.
  12. The report said it had been transferred, so I would guess it went down there when he abandoned NYC. Maybe he'll tell us when it becomes another of his many victimizations to share with his followers.
  13. Reportedly Donald turned in two of his three pistols to the NYPD, who of course also want his very rare NY concealed carry permit back, but the third went to Florida. Both NY and FL prohibit felons possession of firearms, will it now show up in a Mar A Largo bathroom?
  14. Just how late did those 4 lug wheels continue being fitted?
  15. I can imagine some Parole Officers are in terror of being selected to oversee his rehabilitation. He has been talking about drug tests a lot lately, I guess soon he can fund-raise on his results.
