    Usually when I have a car repair happening, I get them on the lift where all the tools are located. That wasn't the case the last two days while I was repairing the 41 truck which was in the other garage. That meant waling back and forth for tools. My phone said I did 7,000 steps yesterday and I never left the house.

    I am headed out now to pickup all the tools that are ****tered over the trucks floor and put them all away. I think I will grab a bucket and do it in one trip.

    You'll be putting out the tool gremlin traps because you'll be missing a wrench or two.
    :p

    She will want some JIS bits for toolkit…makes a difference getting some things apart under the hood. Those are not Phillips screw heads..
    My parts truck had snakes living under the hood and mice nesting in frame rail. Family of snakes left after a week…

    PXL_20250831_195301723.jpg Billy, I drug a 99 home last weekend, little 4 popper decided to run on only probably 1 cylinder. 303,000 miles on it and only the engine needs repair. I LOVE me those YOTAS !!! MITCH Well i pulled the engine down, burned exhaust valves on 1,2 and 3 BUT the cylinders still have their cross hatch and no ridge at the top, just some minor scuff on the cylinder sides...303,000 original miles, gotta live them Yotas!!!

    Nice looking find!

    That is horrible. Horrible for him and the other fellow shot but horrible for all the children without a a daddy and Horrible for the widow raising them on her own.

    I've had a set of Old Williams since age nine my Dad gave to me when I started working on my bicycle. Older made in USA hand tools are a great find and last longer than tools made with a C or J from across the pond.
    You have done good Gr***hopper.

    Do the Yota'z have a drain tube in the cowl area?
    My 98 Suburban K1500 had a leak inside on the p***enger side front floor board and I was told there is a drain tube that gets plugged up now and then and it needs to be blown out with compressed air. I'm not sure how that could back up water into the Cab area bcuz everything is sealed up good but after blowing the drain tube out I nolonger get water in my cab.
    Maybe your Yota has a drain tube that needs cleaned out?

    I am no expert on anything (other than women), but I don't think there is a drain tube in there. Nothing I have found with an inspection camera or online.

    Thats a nice mobile. I had planned one, but it turned into a mobile detail cart. Fortunately, it comes in handy more than a tool cart. :cool:
