What was plastic?I'd like to meet the engineer who spec'd plastic for the cooling fan pulley bearing.View attachment 17350
I'd try ANYTHING on that book's front cover . In fact if you put some Old Bay on the cover I'd chew on that too !!Trying to eat better constantly and I've been wanting to buy this vegan cook book for a while. Most of the stuff looks awesome in it. It used to be called Thug Kitchen but I guess the recent political climate caused a name change.

Made the tortilla soup tonight for supper. It was pretty damn good. Well be making it again, no doubt.

Oh, the bearing cage? How many miles on it? The roller cages were plastic in the front wheel bearings in our 2wd 1993 S10 Blazer. We sold it with the original bearings and 215k miles on it.

I keep them on, but only because they're seized at this point.How many of you keep shackles on your recovery points? I’m in the process of taking everything out of the back and reorganizing all my storage space to thin things out. I don’t want to look like a poseur, but keeping them on means I can use them if I need them on the trail without potentially crawling in the mud to install them first, because I don’t put them on at the trailheads like I probably should.
All mine are stored in the truck. I got tired of them rusting in place.How many of you keep shackles on your recovery points?

I have soft shackles for my current truck. And a shackle tampon for the rear hitch.How many of you keep shackles on your recovery points?

The only one I have on the outside is holding my winch line. It's under a little tension so it'd be tough to steal. Then my other two metal shackles are in my recovery drawer with my two soft shackles.How many of you keep shackles on your recovery points?

I leave mine on . I never had a problem breaking them lose on the boat. Put some anti-seize , tighten them good then run a zip tie thru them like so .How many of you keep shackles on your recovery points?

Didn’t even think about anti-seize. I was going to do the zip tie though since you’re supposed to back it off a half turn from all the way tight. I have some silicone/plastic washers enroute too so they don’t rattle. I might leave them on till winter. Or maybe just leave them on and be diligent about cleaning them.I leave mine on .

That's dope. Does he do that professionally? I've made my own for my 1st Gen and I made @JeffPro4x a set for his 2nd Gen.View attachment 17376
My brother has a side business upgrading headlights. Came to visit for the weekend and put in HID projectors with a color match ring on them. Super bright and I think they look pretty damn cool

I antiseize mine as well. With the winch tension on mine, it never backs loose.Didn’t even think about anti-seize.

Thinking more about it today I think I’m going to leave them on for now (front ones). The back one is the tow hitch shackle and that’s not tough to get to. Last time I used the front ones I had to dig them out then get down in the snow to get them on the front.
Glad to hear it. Jim has a tentacle monster that he does.....things...with.No my name is Pat and I have a black and white cat.
Me too. She's a tuxedo. And she's also a horrid bitch. But I love her anyway.No my name is Pat and I have a black and white cat.

All you really need to know about this car is if you've got a black and white cat and your name's Pat... it is available in red.
I too had this same evening.I might have grilled a lot of steak. I might have eaten it. Either way, there was bourbon.
Id stuff 31's under that and daily it. In that color.
Thats a GREAT goal. I need to be less lazy.Anniversary weekend. One of our 2021 goals is to hike every weekend this summer. So we are getting a head start at Snow Canyon State Park in southern Utah.

I am so not vegan. Check my posts in the cooking threads. But I need to eat better (high cholesterol, hypertension, heart attacks in family, ect) and I like a lot of vegan dishes I've had. But I'll still throw down on the grill with some ribeyes and shrimp when I want. Just trying to improve the in-between times.Interesting. Are you Vegan, or just interested in the recipes?
I so need to eat better.
I've lost a fair bit of weight since September and it can be a struggle to find healthy things that don't suck. Cutting out anything "bread-like" was important for me and I had to stop eating Jasmine rice which is one of my favorite.I am so not vegan. Check my posts in the cooking threads.

Sounds really good!I've lost a fair bit of weight since September and it can be a struggle to find healthy things that don't suck. Cutting out anything "bread-like" was important for me and I had to stop eating Jasmine rice which is one of my favorite.
What I do now, frequently, is I'll put some dry rubbed chicken or pork in the Foreman (or crispy salmon on the stove top, salt only) and then I'll use a trick a chef friend taught me. Use a broccoli crown, cut it up in large pieces top to bottom, throw them in a bowl with a teaspoon or so of olive oil and a bunch of chopped garlic, stir and then put it on a baking sheet and roast it at 400 for about 15 minutes, at that point add half an onion cut into round slices (like onion rings) and a half a pint of mushrooms then cook for another 10 minutes or until onion soft, mushroom release moisture and broccoli should be slightly blackened on the tips.. Mix that together with the chicken is a sweet sauce or spicy or a Chinese hot mustard sauce or whatever sauce you like.
Just one idea but I eat this a lot.
First read through saw rubber chicken, and was like.... not really sure that would be healthier than just eating meat...What I do now, frequently, is I'll put some dry rubbed chicken or pork...
