I hope I do. This has been the year from hell for me.

Anyone know a way to raise the window? I don't think it's the fuse cause there's just one for both windows and only one doesn't work. It has to be something with the motor. It's supposed to rain a ton tonight though and I have no where to put it. This stuff always has to happen on the weekend when all the shops are closed.

Its just not you. I just don't think you're the type of person to not care. Its just frustration talking, you'll get some sleep and look at it differently tomorrow.

Nope. Too much other crap got in the way. Still have to rip out the carpet, put new floor in, put in new woodwork, and put in a new door. Now tomorrow I have to go to my cousin's graduation party. I'm gonna try to get the carpet out tonight, but I can only do one half at a time though cause there's no where else in this house to put my furniture.

What about cars/trucks with hood struts? In my truck, I can't drop the hood. I've gotta grab it and push it down. If I do it hard enough it'll fully latch, but still, if I just tried to drop it, it would laugh at me and just stay there lol

Remember there's some motivation behind lifting your bronco **

God better have a **** good reason for sending me home. This car has been nothing but a money put this summer. If I could I'd trade it in for a different one I would.
By left, do you mean driver? If you do, I got nothing to say. But if it was the passenger side, I'd suggest going over to the passenger door and trying that switch. Happened once on the truck, driver side switch for the passenger window didn't work, but the switch on the passenger door did.


** Got my brake quote today. As I expected, kind of scary. I need new rotors and pads in the front, and the rear... I need new drums, and new wheel cylinders because I have a leak in one. Total will be about $650 for everything. About 275-300 for the front, 300-350 for the back. The leaky wheel cylinder has got the linings in the drum moist on the passenger side, so it doesn't grip too well, driver side is ok. Nothing can be machined, as it all has been before. So, expensive. My plan of attack is get quotes from the shops around here on monday, and compare to what Pete is charging.

The goods things out of this: After this, I shouldn't have to worry about brakes for a LONG time. And it'll be smooth as butter stopping. And also, I had pete look into the front suspension and why it was making the truck pull. GREAT NEWS! It's not the suspension! My alignment is great still, as it always was. The problem here is that my tire has a broken belt in it. So that tire is on the rear now, so no more pull. When I'm returning the gauges to the junkyard monday, I'mma grab myself another tire.

And after that, I'm thinking transmission flush. I don't want that thing dying, and I found out it was last flushed 5 years ago, 24k miles ago. And then a level kit and straighten my bumper, for the 32s

That's why I said for vehicles without springs/struts.

Stupid me I looked right past that.

Charlie, have you had a full brake job done on your truck anytime recently? I'm curious as to whether or not I'm getting bent over here
