Got the axle in the garage without losing too much heat earlier.
I took the cover off to inspect my used rear-end and it looks pretty good.
Way better than the old one.


I have new fluid, friction modifier and gasket already.

I always like to add a drain, just for oil inspections, or early oil changes.

I put grass in st a crappy rental once, to enjoy it as I got home. Poor off-base AZ housing had no lawns. Here I and my cats like my varied 6-8" lawn. Some neighbors apparently dislike it a natural look. City hassles me on their behalf. I hate their unnatural perfect lawns, shrubs, treed, houses. LegoLand. But I figure, let an American have his own home and castle. But they don't have homes. They have speculative real estate investments. I don't look at their houses. Why don't they look at the nicest house? Their own, one would have thought. But no.

Don't cut the grass, pick up the leaves or shovel the snow.

Lucky for me they're down the street and around the curve, so I don't have to look at them.
I sure wish this one was too.... I've got two on the whole street, and both of them are right across from me.

Question for all the people who live in snow country, Is it actually against the law to push snow from driveway to the street or is that just a douschebag move?
I've heard where some places have laws that even though the sidewalk in front of ones house is public land, places put in laws that make the closest homeowner responsible for clearing it. Is that true?

If your neighbor blew all their snow into your driveway (like in the Goofy Christmas movie) what recourse does one have? What would a jury uphold?

Yes, it is against the law here. The only snow you can push push out from here.... which is part of the street anyway. And yes, I do keep this down so we don't get stuck coming in and out. BTW, there appears to be something on my camera lens, LOL.

As far as the neighbor question, I don't know that I've ever seen/heard of that happening. My old neighbor used to b!tc4 if any speck of snow came over to his yard, but he was a schitzo bastard. It's one of those things you just have to realize. When snow blowing, it may end up across the fence line.

It seems that a while back there was a conversation about Arduino devices on here.

Do any of you have Arduino programming experience? Just looking for pointers and tips.

It's the little patch between the gutter and where people actually drive. Me and my friend next door keep this patch cleared out for us, the mail man, and the garbage man. Sometimes he does it, sometimes I do. Depends who's home, LOL.

EDIT: I got a little carried away with the pen there.... it's basically a car width we clear out, lol.
