    More Junk Parts. Very Frustrating.

    Probably, but so far I've found that it's flexible and strong enough that it'll most likely outlast all the neoprene boots.

    More Junk Parts. Very Frustrating.

    I'm actually to the point where I might 3d print boots out of TPU. I'll update when I actually do it lol. So far the radiator mounts I printed out are holding up very well!!

    When to replace radiator hoses?

    I've had bad luck recently with their radiator hoses and water pumps. Don't think I'll be using them again.

    Please enlighten me on ozone machine

    I've got that same one and just used it to kill roaches in a console. Worked perfectly and also works for smells in rooms.

    Cheap Part Regret/Success

    Went with a Car quest MAF and VVT solenoid for my 05 Hyundai Elantra and they both failed in less than a week. The Car quest crank and cam sensors have been in there for half a year with no issues surprisingly.

    Real Life Lithium Jump pack stories

    Try using an ultra capacitor jump starter instead! No batteries needed and will always charge when you need it.

    First Brands news?

    Its such a shame too as I bought all of their different sizes and no other locking pliers have come even CLOSE to the quality these have. The teeth grip onto anything and don't dull out easily.

    Any Quickstruts that are Decent for Toyota Matrix?

    I'd see if Mando is sold on Amazon and go with them. I'm very happy with the ride quality on them so far and the price is right.

    Who remembers the 60's /70's California NOX box?

    Thanks!!! That was extremely fascinating to read!!! The fact that GM kept that failed catalyst bead bed design in production for long is staggering.

    Who remembers the 60's /70's California NOX box?

    Just read an old document about it and ****, those prices seemed like a lot back then!! And even after the law was repealed back in 1980, you were still required to keep the devices installed if they were installed before 1980 lol 🤣

    Moly Grease for Dana/Spicer U Joints?

    I've got 290k on an '02 Frontier with the original non-serviceable U-joints still tight.

    '15 RAV4 brake slide pins stuck...

    I'm not a fan of Toyota rubber grease for guide pins. I've seen too many cars have it harden and seize the pins after a few years. Personally, I use silicone grease for all of my pins without any issues.

    Vintage Group 7 V4459 oil filter C&P

    I would think it's definitely 2005 since the copyright date is from 2005. I don't think they made this filter past 2012 judging from the lack of posts after that here on the forums.
