The Ravens on our pipeline projects won't go near Twinkies, nor the "One Bite Brownies".
And I thought we were supposed to be the smart ones.

Big Macs are "iffy" and 1/4 pounders are also ignored. McDonald's fries are still a favourite.

I'm with the Ravens in McDonalds. Maybe an iccasional fillet o fish if I'm craving a Mercury fix :eek::D

their fries are GOOD but that's the scariest part!! Hahahaha
 
We have ravens in our area and they're a favorite with me. They are in the crow family (corvids) but different than Crows. I prefer the Ravens. They are magnificent soarers. Crows are flappers lol
 
Ravens recognize people and things and they are able to make and use tools for different tasks. Probably more intelligent than many humans!!

So I'm not sure and i don't use anything on my tires but in chatting with one of the tire installers at Americas tire I was told that stuff isn't good for your sidewall it can lead to checking. However, there are some products that claim not to do that. If that is the case I wonder what it would eventually do to the rubber hoses and belts? Food for thought - could be BS could be fact :)

No idea , but I do know they use oil to make tires

When it's reinstalled would using some anti-sieze or dilithium white grease prevent that from happrning?

Again, totally guessing.

Ticks me off that every time I removed the wing in the past I always painted the bolts just to avoid this problem..

Ravens can get nasty and dive bomb your head during mating season if you get to close to the nest .

I've used Pledge (lemon) furniture polish on sidewalls for years. It leaves a very slight shine, which is good. I'm not a fan of the Armour All sidewall look.

I used the armour all on the tire I did the other day .. didn’t give it any excessive shine but made it look cleaner .

OH FUUUUUDDDDDGGGGE!!! That's never been mentioned before! I for one don't have a clue :eek:

UNLESS without hurting the paint you could get some WD-40 or some similar product on them to let it sit to loosen them? Totally guessing ;)

I read a few threads on her about these bolts .. I’m not using a torch to heat the bolts , I can’t get a socket on the , the damn heads are almost completely flaked away . The one benefit is that rear studs don’t have nuts on them so if I can get the fronts enough to fit up and out of the hole I should be able to remove the damn things if I hold my mouth right I just may getter done without any other damage .. keeping my finger crossed . I’ve been searching the web and there seems to be some special sockets just for this purpose .. just not sure about the clearance or if there is enough to even grab hold of left .
 
Wholly crap hahaha I tried to check the o- ring on the pump rod of the Jack .. went smooth till I was putting it back together and the retaining bolts would not start to thread back in with the springs installed tried over and over and over again .. walked away and came back and they finally started .. damn , I’m in a jinxed mode for sure .. but the kicker was , I had to run and get more Jack oil and bleed the air again .. got the air out and lowered the Jack lift and it stopped so I put my foot on it to push it down easy and all of a sudden POW the filler plug exploded out and the Jack oil soaked my ass from head to toe ,, shit tastes terrible and surely blurs your vision .. I can’t find the little rubber plug anywhere . I think it may have blasted off and is no orbiting earth hahaha ! I’m not sure I can even get a new one .. why the hell wouldn’t they have just put a threaded plug in the damn thing is beyond me ! I’ll have to search and check stores and see if I can find something that will work I guess .
 
Been going back and forth with Sears whoever over the Jack and the pressure washer … Jack and parts have all been discontinued and the pressure washer has a lot of discontinued parts but may have a carburetor , I need the carb number to be sure .. at a minimum I will be pulling the carb and checking everything internal now before I spend another penny on it .. hopefully they may also have a rebuild kit for the carb .. but the primer ball appears I won’t be able to buy that separately and would have to fork out around $100 for a new carb if they have the right one .. hell it would probably be cheaper to just go to Northern tools and get a more portable 20 ton Jack for $99.

I'm thinking you should price a new Jack and pressure washer with the spring sales come on in a week! Then fix these for a hobby
