Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

Thanks all for the warm wishes! What kind of baby oil are you using? Mobil 1 0W40 per the sticker, but I've been finding chunks in the pan between changes. Is this normal? 😲 Pretty normal for the intermediate shaft on this particular model. :D Did you get the smaller single row or the much improved...

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

Fellas! Just checking in to say I'm not dead (yet.) My son was born! IMG_20190205_124603.jpg Little guy came in a very surprising way. He's actually not supposed to be out yet... My wife was due Feb 25. Her water broke at 33 weeks while she was attending her baby shower in Austin, TX, with her fami...

Re: Jake Raby's Part 1 of the Focus On: Bore Scoring Series is on YouTube

Yea, no doubt about it. No telling how many shops install LN bearings in failing cars. I'm sure Charles Navarro fights it all the time. When the car goes boom, they wanna blame the manufacturer. Ugh! I see that as a societal issue. If somethings goes wrong the blame MUST be placed on someone other ...
