Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Wife and I marked a few more waterfalls off our list. The entrance to the cave is blocked but still cool. Saw a large black bear on the drive in.

New dryers suck, why they need a mother board is beyond me...

The motherboard is for the bluetooth to control it from a phone. I've had enough negative experience with anything Maytag built in the last 20 years, that I won't consider them anymore. When the Maytag washing machine we got with this house seized the main shaft for the second time in 3 years due to a crappy design with crappy seals and bearings, it went to the crusher. Most of the mainstream appliances have only a 1 year warranty too. I bought a Speed Queen washer with a 7 year parts and labor warranty. It doesn't have all the problematic bells and whistles, nor can we program it from our phone, which is exactly what we wanted to stay away from. Why the heck does a person need to control a washer from their phone ??? |

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
It's just nuts isn't it? A while back I was heading through Lowes and I swear I saw either a washing machine or dryer with a monitor in the door. TV or PC or something. Now who needs anything like that? Gizmos and gadgets are ruining everything.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
not my truck, my wife's inherited tacoma. brought it home last weekend, started working on it. polished out a bunch of minor scratches, replaced the rear bumper plastic. bonus, turns out it is a TRD sport. someone sometime pulled the decals off the box but it has the embossed TRD seats and embossed TRD exhaust.
picked up these today for $1400. brand new Fuel rims with new Nitto Terra Grappler A/T G2's. was on the guy's tacoma for exactly 3 days, maybe 20 miles on them. even though their the same size as the stockers, there about an 1 1/2" taller and a touch wider. they clear no probs, but it looks a little funny in my eye, so i ordered a 3" lift for it, hoping it gets here by friday. wifey does not want any higher than 3, she hates climbing into my crewcab, but it does sit kinda low stockwise. also ordered some vent visors's as the drivers rear one is missing. only other plans are a canopy and call it done. wife is all giddy over her new rims and can't wait for me to toss them on |

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Changed out the broken tail housing on my Chevelle in the storage building with no lights. I do have electric power and the entire 48 ft length has clear plastic on the ridge. It lets in a lot of light on a sunny day, but not under a car... LOL. I have an LED trouble light I used for that. I installed a rear axle last summer with 4.56 gears to go racing and apparently my original driveshaft didn't like the rpm and went jump rope which caused a severe vibration that snapped the housing off.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Mike, I don't know how your dryer is made but one we had many years ago had an ear shattering screech. I thought it was the drum rollers under the front of the tub. Turned out it was the center spindle at the back of the drum that had gone dry and scored the ball it rotated in. I couldn't fix that one.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Near as I can tell, the Maytag Maxima X dryer was made in 2013.
No center spindle -- the drum rides on 2 rollers in front and 2 more at the back. Spring-loader idler pulley near the motor and a long skinny drive belt that goes around the drum.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Yesterday I took the Camaro to a local cars and coffee. Weather was perfect. Mid 60's. About 80-90 cars turned out. It was held at a local tire shop. Free burgers, hot dogs and soft drinks. They did a great job.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Switched out my gas tank and need to get a new rear wall teal carpet. All the ones online say they’re for w/o gas tank? I obviously need one that accommodates a in cab gas tank. I also found a spring hold down under the seat for tools? I saw the spring on the passenger corner for the jack but the jack tools are in the center console of the buddy seats.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Here's how the tools look when they are stowed under the buddy seat. I always wondered what the shapes were for on the cab floor.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Started putting in the new headlamps in my Chevelle . They said they are direct replacements but I had to do some messaging (sanding and die grinding ) the back of the housing to fit the buckets . Much brighter but I don’t think I would do it again . I’d just go with the Silver star seal beams
