I wouldn't necessarily be concerned with the level. If the pic was taken when it was hot, it is over filled. If it was cold, it is really over filled. It is a reservoir so a long as it isn't below the line and isn't over flowing, you are fine. That is some nasty looking stuff. You really...

BFH or jack it up on the bends with a bottle jack.

When it comes to rotots, steel is steel. There is no need to over spend. Unless you are looking at getting cross drilled or slotted rotors, save your money. Pads are a different story.

I would love to see the print out of the alignment specs. If they can't center the steering wheel which is expected as part of a wheel alignment, I could only imagine what those numbers must look like.

A friend or two is the only way to go. The problem mounting bumpers it is hard to find a good center to balance the weight and be able to move it get it into place. With that much weight it doesn't take much to easily scratch any paint it comes in contact with along with some nasty dents or...

You need a press. If you don't have one you can buy something like this 6 Ton A-Frame Bench Shop Press that will run you $60 with their coupon. The other option is to stop by any shop. Not necessarily a machine shop. You should be able to get the press work for $50 for both. It literally...

Areeed, but considering the OP is from NC and probably not encountered much road salt or the nasty chemicals that cause corrosion they should be no issue. Even with the DC winters that mine experienced, there was no issue and they both slid right out. Actually looking at the prices now, it...

I disagree. With a simple press you can have an extra $40 in your pocket. Steel is steel and the hub is not a wearable part so there is no reason to replace it. Unless yours is heavily corroded or damaged, there is no reason to waste the money. I can understand as a mechanic that you will...

Seriously? You got 113k on a 9 year old belt and you think it might have been something other than age?

high-tech in Chantilly? Those guys are good and honest.

I am not sure I would take it to a body shop for something like that. They don't typically work on electrical systems there. Dealer would probably be the best choice.

That sounds right. They use aftermarket glass and that is common with aftermarket junk. You could go back and complain, but it is probably pointless. My father took his truck to get the back window replaced and they messed it up and would do nothing. You can still call Baker instead of a...

Don't bother with Lee & Cates. They are lazy ****s who tell you nonsense like that because they only want easy work. Go with Baker. Robbie and Jay are freaking awesome. Oh and if your bill is over $200 you get a steak dinner at a steak joint in a shady part of town. I just had them replace...

It isn't stealing. It is returning to where they came from. Those things don't fall off. :hunter:

Check the kids bikes in your neighborhood. You can pretty probably find everyone you are missing.
