Re: assembly lube; it's not what you think.
Also, be very careful when abbreviating the term... Could potentially alter your weekend plans, if in the wrong company.

Re: assembly lube; it's not what you think.
leddzepp; thanks for chiming in. I do Appreciate that a moderator supports my thread. By the way, your forum name/the rock group just happens to some of my favorite tunes to listen to while working on my ride. There is a radio station up here that does lunch with ledd on the weekends. Good time to work on the truck. It's kool man, tks

Re: assembly lube; it's not what you think.
Hey man, this is hard work...gotta stay hydrated. Need a smoke with that? (I work in a cigar lounge). I'm often tinkering on the truck before or after work in the parking lot. Got some new belts to put on Monday before my shift now that I know I have a '72 350 in my '71 GMC with a long water pump (belt sizes from a '73 look like they'll work a little better than the guess work that's on there now).

Re: assembly lube; it's not what you think.
I'll have Oktoberfest on tap here in the mancave soon. There are always half kegs that don't sell and you can get them for $50...it's crazy cheap! If you like a hoppier beer try Yuengling Lord Chesterfield Ale sometime. Not super hoppy but it's their hoppiest. I'm not a hops guy.

Re: assembly lube; it's not what you think.
You are correct: it's not what I thought it was going to be.

Don't take this wrong guy's but I don't think working on our trucks and drinking is a very good idea, for that matter drinking and doing any kind of work is. I understand having a drink after wards but the topic suggests you are drinking while doing the work. Is this the kind of message you want your kids to see that it's OK to drink while working?

Re: assembly lube; it's not what you think.
I haven't done much wrenchin' lately so I can't comment on the subject. But I will say that a super cold Icehouse after a morning goose hunt goes great with bacon and eggs. When you're toting around a $1400 shotgun, you don't have much budget left for fancy beer
