Got the ranger all finished now. While waiting on the rotor my dad and I managed to install an electric fan that someone gave me and I found a control at advance auto for it and have it all installed and then my nephew showed up with the rotor and we got the wheel bearings packed and the rotor on and the new caliper and took it for a spin. Wow its quieter with the electric fan and the fan hardly ever runs. This should save some fuel. Plus I found a place to stow the old fan under the hood should the electric one fail on the road. Then I gave the basement a decent cleaning and straightened up my tools. Tomorrow comes some wet sanding on the midget, I hope.
 
I just don't understand how you manage to do all this. Must be wonderful to be young, LOL.
 
I have to do things Jack, otherwise I will go insane. I have never been able to sit around. Even on vacation I am this way. We went to Olando on vacation a little over a year ago and stayed six days. We did six amusement parks in those 6 days, from the moment they opened until they shot fireworks and closed the parks. We did all 4 disney parks and the 2 universal parks. That was exhausting but fun. This 2 surgeries has kept me down a lot and it has been very hard on me. Seeing all the things that need doing and not being able to do much at all. Still, I been thinking and figuring and planning while I was down. I have not bought gas in a while,WOW is it high now?
 
Understand your push and not able to sit around. I use to be like that as well but have found as I get older as long as I keep the old brain active I'm just fine. Do need to set awile between jobs. Your stamana goes away.

Which is why I am on and off here every day between jobs.

Used a clay bar on wifes car, trunk, today. Boy does that work a charm, like new it is, even took of overspray. Wonder where that has been all my life.
 
I bought a clay bar to use on my truck to remove overspray. I hope it does what it says. I sprayed an off white color underneath the midget and overspray traveled to the truck a long ways away. Looks like pollen on a black truck.
 
Careful now, Kim! Rubbing clay isn't the best on a rough shoulder!! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/thumbsup.gif
 
Hay, tried this on wifes car yesterday. Works a charm on overspray and easy to do.
