Oh shit that is bad ass....that ecoboost feels 2 x faster then my 5.4L. Nice ride Chubbs!!!
 
Replacement, doorman makes it as well as others. The bolts are stupid small soak them with penitrating oil repeatedly and start the job while it's hot. It's not fun! I know of a shop in the dearborn area that WILL do it. PM me if you want to know what shop.

1 was already broke and i broke another one..fuck this..let it leak..
how much does a job like this run?
 
Picked up a nice entry level mountain bike. Nishiki - owned by Raleigh but they are built in the same location as Giant brand bikes...

Time to get my ass back in shape completely! Ride to and from the gym + everywhere else.

EBC was giving away pads a year or two ago. I didn't even get them for free. Saw a thread about it somewhere. No one else sounded like they were going to take advantage either.

Maybe they were talking about the EBC "Green" pads, which I saw many horrible reviews about. The folks at Contour.org seem to think these are some of the better brakes you can get for the SVT, (track use too!) besides 4-month backordered Mintex brakes.

no Jason had Yellow's (their "race" pad) seperate on track and nearly cause a HUGE accident. I have had reds fail on the street!!!!!!
Seriously, return those and save you car and your health. Not kidding.

You want a Hawk, PFC, Carbotech etc. an actual good track pad.
 
Yup. We'll see what they do. Hopefully it's worth making the change because I don't run that much boost.
 
Got rid of my John Deere for this:

Loader needs to be painted but all in all it seems to be in good condition.

They were almost $100 per tire cheaper then the next good tire. I have gotten 30-40k miles out of each set I have had and I drive like an ass. They aren't the best but value wise you cant go wrong.

I'd have to disagree. There are several tires in the same price range, some may even be cheaper now than the goodyear eagle rsa. I did quite a bit of research before I bought the yokohamas I bought that came heavily recommended by other TBSS owners. I believe they were roughly the same price as the goodyears at the time. My wife drives our TBSS all year and I wasn't happy with the goodyears in the snow. The yokos are much better in the snow IMO and should also last longer. The only thing the yokos give up to the goodyears is a slight disadvantage in handling.
