Yesterday was my planned catch up on vehicle maintenance day that started with a bang when opening the garage door and one extension spring let go… no big deal, just needed a detour to Home Depot and $31 later all good.
Number one on my to do list was brake pads and shoes for the 1987 Samurai that I’m always using to tow my box trailer.
Front Pads no problems but it turns out rear drums bind so tight that I found Internet Posts of people braking the drums to remove.
Fortunately I have a puller set I just needed to get…
Seldom drive the Range Rover to keep it nice and had it on a charger earlier. I drove off not realizing the hood was not latched and it flew up on the way to get the puller… let’s just say the pristine Rover isn’t anymore.
This was not slow motion… in less than the blink of an eye the hood popped up blocking all my forward vision.
I know I’m lucky in so many ways out on a busy highway and all…
Some Days…
