Yep, if ya have standard modern construction.
Estimates from 4 different companies, the average was right about $1,250 for all 6 of mine installed(34"x24") and that was no vents. Unless of course Toledo is crazy high.

Okay, we'll sadly PEX is going to be my friend here. These galvanized pipes are dead. I know why they moved now.. They knew this house needed all this work and said screw it, it's not worth the money so they sold it and moved to a newer home. There's tons of fuses in the basement so I KNOW they were blowing them left and right.

As of right now, I am sitting in what I believe to be the parents room. Why do I think so? There's an old chain lock on the door. There is a bigger bedroom but it had evidence of posters, so that was probably their daughter's. The other bedroom is painted blue... All the way and that includes the ceiling. (Who does that???)

Well, replumb. Rewire, add about 3 additional circuits and I will officially be done.

Oh and have Hart do my glass block windows. :lol:

PEX rocks, so very simple to do, very quick to install, can run it just about anywhere and also very strong.
Glass block party?!?!?! :rockon:

Well sold some of the older Harley parts I had over the weekend. Had been stored away for over 25 years so time to part with them. Couple of NOS parts that one guy who's restoring a 48 Panhead REALLY wanted and needed so they went to a good home.
Good thing though, walked into NAPA with a short list this morning, walked out 108 dollars later.
But all kinds of goodies to keep the girl running lots longer hopefully. :JEEPIN:

Hey all, hope Easter was good. Took a long weekend to Hocking Hills this past weekend, nice to get away from "life" sometimes and relax, even if it's with some other couples and 5 teenagers :SOMBRERO:

Well, got one side done Easter weekend, had to let my hands heal up before I tackle the other side :banghead:

. It was easier getting it out than getting new one in.

Lower control arm shock bushing....or what was left when I got done with drill and air chisel. :mrgreen:

So, this a bad thing?
Thanks to Tom sending me link, got new joint and boot on already.

Oh, looking for used lift kit for 02-07 if ya'll run across anything. Will need new tires in fall and wifey has said couple times about lifting it some. :BANANA:

Here is pic of our new family member "Roxy", got her from some friends. She is 9 weeks old, they started her crate training and she is almost potty trained. They still have her sister is anyone would be interested, new owners backed out on Sunday right before they were supposed to pick her up.

tommudd · **Posted:** Wed Apr 10, 2013 4:09 am

Cute pup there Tahoe!
Makes me ALMOST want one.
mmmmmmmmmm garage dog maybe.....
Used lift, maybe / might know of one
I have a set of used 948s ( rear springs) sitting out here right now
plus may know of another one as well , I'll check for you

Love Hocking Hills used to live 20 minutes from there and sure do miss the hills etc

Tahoe, we LOVE boxers! Great dogs and would love to have her sister - timing is bad though. We're now "empty nesters" and planning on several long and short getaways and it wouldn't be fair to either kennel a new pup or have a dogsitter. Hate it when people do that to their dogs :evil:

That clevis bushing looks like the one that came out of mine. Tom told me not to try it but I bulled ahead anyway. For the other side I'm just gonna get a new lower control arm - faster, easier and fewer cuss words :banghead:

So Tom, you heading off to wheel the Libby? How's the new tranny treating you?

TAHOE · **Posted:** Wed Apr 10, 2013 9:34 am

Thanks Tom. Not even worried if it's worn/sagged a little.

This our 3rd boxer, lost my old boy last fall and our other one will be 3 in July.
She is becoming a hoot, the other dogs are starting to warm up to her, she loves the cat. He rolls over next to her and she pounces, biting whatever she can get her mouth on. Man, does she have sharp little teeth. The cat acts likes he hates it, but is loving every minute of it. Amazing, she is only 9 weeks old, already crate trained and pretty much potty trained. I'm expecting an accident eventually, but she goes to the door now and then heads outside.
She already seems to understand "wanna go outside" and "want some food"

Yea, I know you all warned me about the bushings, :banghead:

but I had already bought them and I'm too cheap and hard headed to have someone else do it. I'll get the other side done soon, it's still squeaking pretty bad. May need to replace stabilizers too.
I know the bushings were bad, you could see the rubber collapsing in on itself.

Trans is doing good, got 2000 miles or so on it now, plus pulling pine logs up out of the woods so its gotten a work out so far. Want to get the fluid flushed out here soon and then hopefully good to go for a while.
Next trip is to eastern Pa for a few days :wink:

When you get those done I'll bring you down my spare set of LCAs and you can do them :wink:

Would love to have a Boxer pup just not sure of my life style is good or not for one :?:

Why yes for sure. The Golden Buckeye Club is having it's "Spring Fling" at some new mall at that way.
Sorry Tom, if ya didn't want anyone to know..........

I sent a very long email to Chrysler expressing my displeasure of their service from one of their dealerships. I doubt they'll do anything constructive but I did mention that if the problem isn't my axles I'll be seeking legal counsel. Hopefully that gets the other components covered if they're bad. This may be my last Chrysler product that I but new. I even contacted jeepcares over on jeep forum, waste of time. If they offered to buy my jeep back right now I'd probably do it. Isn't it against the law to void a warranty on a transfer case or transmission because I changed the suspension? I understand they don't have to cover the drive shaft and the cv joints but nothing else was effected. :banghead:

NEVER but from Fred Martin in Barberton, Ohio, you will be sorry if you do, eventually.
