Water pump let loose. Smoked the belt. Waiting for a tow. Luckily it was only 6 miles from the house. I’d throw it on the trailer but this is what tows the trailer :shaking:View attachment 362719

Cut the belt and drive a mile or two and cut it off. Wait 10 minutes and repeat. You'll be home before the tow truck gets there.

Was only about 30 minutes and tow was here. Flatbed service. Put it right in the driveway. Great dude. Off to O O O Oreillys for a pump and belt. Pulley on the tensioner seems smooth and not gonna replace it right now. Probably kick myself later.
 
Back together and took the chance to drain and fill with 5 gallons of fresh coolant. God bless America the coolant was twice as much as the parts (and that’s not saying much. A WP and serp belt was $130!
 
I changed a cummins WP beside the road on my Snapon truck once.
 
Just finished this. Because…well… employee discount!

It’s not possible to build this without humming the James Bond theme music.

It has an ejection seat, front running lights that flip to guns when you pull the stick shifter, rear window bullet guard that pops up when you twist the tail pipe. And of course a hidden Phone in the driver door.

My BIL bought a certified brodozer. He’s not a douche but sort of going through a 55 year old crisis. It’s a nice 38k mile ‘13 (I think) Tundra, 8” lift (well done at least) with 38” Toyo MTs and factory supercharger.

It has gobs of torque but I think he said about 10mpg LOL.

I will try to get a pic, it didn’t dawn on me when he was here. He has no idea about what a brodozer or douchemobile is and I pray that God has mercy on his soul.

Nothing wrong with a nice lifted truck as long as the wheels ain't stupid and the neons ain't working.

It's a fairly nice yard, and kinda soft. My mini skid would probably leave ruts from making several runs back and forth hauling the shavings. This one is probably gonna take around a hour and a half, with cleanup and everything.
 
Taking down the Blue shag carpet im my Mom and dad's basement bar.

Dad says they are putting beige carpet back.🤪😒🙄🤐
When the realtor told them take the blue down I'm pretty sure he didn't mean replace it with new. Dad says it's already bought and that is what is going back. 🤣
