Sorry Dave, I thought yours was the Android Bionic. I looked back and it was Strodder that had that one. What model is yours? I can look up the manual, and see.

daverod · 01-02-2012, 07:51 PM

I checked phone has no flash. Dumb.

**chevy_man5** · 01-03-2012, 12:35 AM

That sucks!!

57truckguy · 01-03-2012, 01:38 AM

Well a camera without flash is kind of like an elevator without a shaft. loL

just hold the phone in one hand and a big HID flashlight in the other

ejn74 · 01-03-2012, 10:07 AM

I have a lg phone with no flash and there is a setting for night time that helps in low light. should be the icon .above the setting icon when in camera mode

57truckguy · 01-11-2012, 02:24 AM

Well did you ever get you phone figured out.. LOL ???

daverod · 01-11-2012, 03:21 PM

I did.

The phone is just a POS.

Good thing I kept my old phone I'll just use it. The only thing I could post would be the empty space where I rip out all my air stuff for my 52.

My carrier bearing in my 64 took a poop. Ordered a biggier better badder one fron cpp. Sounded like my engine blew up when it when out. I was only 100 yrds from home so I just drive it.

daverod · 01-16-2012, 11:29 AM

I order the new billet carrier from CPP. My OEM carrier did'nt last 2 years. The top of the carrier just seperated from the bracket. Guess I could have welded it back on. What a $hitty design.

bubba327 · 01-16-2012, 11:42 AM

I hate it when stuff is cheaply made and doesn't last. I made a junk yard run to the Jalopy jungle for the youngest daughters 94 GMC .
Just looking for the plastic interior dash and better trim pieces for the dash. Every plastic dash and glove box and fuse door cover are all broken in the same spot.
Plastic junk!

I have a whole new appreciation for the 64 with a steel dash and no plastic.

watahyahknow · 01-16-2012, 01:50 PM

it whont be long untill 3D printing is going to break though and you can make youre own plastic parts

daverod · 01-16-2012, 03:43 PM

it's even worse when the guy pressing on the bearing tells you the one you brought him to press on is a cheap one and his guy has a hd bearing for 100. Funny thing is it looked just the same as the 30 one I bought. Live and learn.

watahyahknow · 01-16-2012, 08:38 PM

its the power of persuation , happened to me too
internet is making it harder for them though , i now know wat things are suposed to cost

daverod · 02-02-2012, 11:22 AM

Put my new bearing on. Noticed that on one of the driveshafts the yolk on the end was'nt welded on to match the yolk on the other end. It was off by 15 20 degrees? That is'nt normal is it? I guess I should get it fixed. I just don't know if it's really wrong.

Strodder · 02-02-2012, 11:28 AM

Worth bring the driveshaft to a Driveshaft Specialist.

maybe it wasn't made for normal people
crosses should be parallel to one another

daverod · 02-02-2012, 07:29 PM

So I'm OK.

It was a driveline guy that pointed it out to me? It still feels kinda weird. I think I'll turn it 180 to see if that helps.

daverod · 02-02-2012, 07:31 PM

I bet I could buy a new old one for less that it cost to have the guy cut the end off and even it out.

not much to it . just put it in the lathe,clean the weld , part it until you hit the shoulder- turn it and weld it. you will be about 1/8 of an inch shorter.
it is easy for me to say as I have lathes

if you turn it 180, it will be the same thing, just traded sides
that is just like; if a bear was coming at you. would you run in the opposite direction?

watahyahknow · 02-02-2012, 01:33 PM

ask de specialist first theres something rattling in the back of my mind about them needing to be offcenter so they dont lock up but i think it was 45 degrees

bubba327 · 02-03-2012, 10:35 PM
