Specific Tire recommendation

I have a 2018 cross track and I currently have the cross Climate 2’s.

I like them they’re good, but they are directional and unfortunately, I have a lot of weight in the vehicle due to using it as a work truck and the inside of the rear tires where down a lot quicker and with the rotation front to back isn’t perfect

I’m wondering if someone can recommend some Great similar all season tires that are not directional so it can help out with my uneven Wear and weight issue

I was looking into adjustable rear control, arms, and knuckles, but that’s gonna be $1500.
Potentially OEM Camber Bolt would you recommend that?

I do driving in Colorado up to the ski resorts and a little bit off-road dirt roads to go mining.

Had a debt I did not know about go to a collection agency. Anything I can do to fix my credit history?

I made a purchase on PayPal for a flight through my bank and I guess I got the tickets and it ended up having insufficient funds. I guess I have two different Paypal accounts so I didn’t ever see the resident issue.

I started to get some text messages about a bad Paypal balance so I logged in and I never saw anything and I called and they said I was good

I just assumed the text messages were a scam

And then I got a letter in the mail from the collection agency for about $500 and I immediately paid it because I found my second account and I found out who was legit debt.

No, I never would’ve let this happen if I knew those texts weren’t a scam because I get texts like that all the time.

Is there anything I can do to fix my credit history or score if it went down due to this?

2018 with aftermarket speakers. Amp. Subwoofer?

I’ve got a really nice Focal 12 inch subwoofer that I’ve been sitting on for my old car and I’ve never taken the time to install it

Can someone push me in the right direction to start this build?

My old car was a Honda CRV and I had to get an aftermarket radio this equalizer under the steering wheel and amplifier different speakers for all the doors and tweeters and then the big subwoofer

I don’t want to lose all the capabilities of the head unit or the expense. Is there a way to keep the radio head unit and install an amplifier to upgrade power capabilities?

What speakers would you guys recommend for this car?
I had focals and some kicker k2 and Rockford fosgate components.

I liked it loud and I liked the bass. But I really liked the equalizer so I can turn the subwoofer off all the way on halfway on Etc.

Sounds like it would be smart to maybe upgrade the battery or alternator? I already have an Optima red top battery. Plus a very large cable from Ground. This is the “big 3” that’s talked about for car audio?

Thanks in advance. I would love to start getting some more information to start this project.

Brake fade in the mountains?

I keep buying EBC green stuff pads and EBC slotted rotors.

They work well.

I upgraded to DOT 5.1 fluid.

I use my 2018 crosstrek as a work vehicle and have max payload 1000lbs or more in it.

I expect to not have good performance.

In extreme situations I have had brake fade and pulled over to let them cool off and then start engine braking heavy.

I know this will happen in extreme situations and am aware and stay safe.

Is there any other options besides removing weight?

First custom cerakote job. This is garbage correct?

https://imgur.com/a/mJAvS8F

I asked mountainside outfitters to recreate something on their website and my deadline was the end of July before the law changes and I have to pay hundreds of dollars $$ and a new long class just to pick up a gun.

I asked them to make the Springfield hellcat / hellcow. Cow print gun on their website. It has Moo etched into the side of the gun next to 9mm.

I asked MANY times to see what the art would look like before doing it- because it is permanent and I have a deadline.

They when ahead and did this cerakote job (looks like spray paint to me). I know nothing about cerakote.

Everything online I’ve seen looks clean. There is some cow print that has not many black spots and very spaced out- it looks bad. Some are done very well. Which is why I asked for a proof and approval before finalizing. Which they ignored.

I put $500 down. $950 total. They said If I don’t like it they will put it on their sales floor and remake it for me.

I am NOT paying for this. I do NOT trust them to do a decent job after seeing this GARBAGE work.

Who can I commission to do this custom job for Me? I will now have to take the long class and pay more $$ as it will be past July 31st now. I’m really upset with them.

The “hellcow” and “moo” is laughable. Very bad size and font. I asked for engraving. Not stenciled colored.

It also looks sloppy all over. The pink trigger look hand painted on by a brushstroke.

The white parts have black showing through ALL OVER.

No other cow print Glocks online look even remotely this sloppy. What the hell is going on?

I am so confused right now.

This is absolutely garbage job correct me if I’m wrong?

Can someone with experience chime in?

ArkPro UV much better than my Ultra???

Is this normal? If not- does Olight fix things like this or just replace? I don’t want to lose my custom paint job and arkbeat data.

Pictures don’t do it justice. Trust me. It’s bad.

Audible noise from yard hydrant but no water movement on water meter?

Fixing a mainline leak for a customer on reclaimed water system.

I fixed a three-quarter inch PVC break.

I use the yard hydrant to flush out dirt and air
When I turned it off, it would not stop leaking so I exercised it on off and off a lot until it finally sealed up

I understand when you shut these off it will shut off the valve 3 foot down in the ground and drain the standpipe so that it is freeze tolerant

I could audibly hear a water, hissing noise coming from the hydrant when it was turned off and minutes after it should be done draining
At first there were still maybe .2 gallons per minute movement on the water meter and then it stopped. It is over 200 foot long mainline so it may take a minute to fully charge after use and hold static pressure.

But anyways, I could still hear this audible noise from the yard hydrant even after five minutes of no movement on the water meter…

My first assumption was if there’s movement on the water meter there could be some debris that got caught in the valve and it is slowly passing by Wright to the drain at the bottom of the yard hydrant.

But now that theory is shot because there’s no movement on the water meter…

Thoughts?

Help with upgrading rear suspension

Help with upgrading suspension:

It’s my “work truck” lots of weight in tools and rear suspension is super low. It keeps scraping my hitch cargo.

Suspension may be shot or just too much weight.

Either way I want to upgrade my shocks/struts to something of a better brand that can handle more weight and keep the backend higher without sagging.

The front needs it too eventually but the front sits high and is fine right now.

On a budget.

Eventually would want a lift kit 1-4 inches but I heard that can wear out control arms etc faster?

What can I do for now?

I keep over tightening and cracking fittings

Does anyone have a good rule of thumb like hand tight and then 360° after that for most fittings I do residential so typically 1 inch threading and three-quarter inch threading. Specifically I keep cracking the female PVC threads on 1 inch 90s for the drains on manifold.

I’ve been doing Irrigation for 10 years and maybe I’m getting complacent and really trying to avoid leaks by making things tight because I’m definitely had little drips here and there for things that maybe we’re out of my control like bad threading Etc.

Interim creating the leak.

Any advice?

I typically use three wraps of the blue monster Teflon and a little bit of pipe dope for mainline fittings

ISO custom gun maker - cerakote engraving etc. I want the Springfield hellcow

So there is an April fools day joke that Springfield armory made a while back. It was their hellcat that they had cerakoted cow print

Apparently it got good feedback so they actually made a couple.

I really want one- because it says “hellcow” engraved instead of hellcat and “Moo”’instead of “9mm”

Only problem is they do not come compensated or ported.

So it might be worth it for me just to buy the gun I want and then get it coated.. as for the custom engraving I probably won’t be able to get that. It’s a really cool small detail is that something that a custom gun smith could do or not?

I posted on Tacswap ISO hellcow and never got any bites. I’m sure there’s not too many out there that are legit.

I’m definitely seen other codings and renditions of it

Advice?

Found this in my engine after it “blew up” what do you think failed?

I had a lot of high RPMs and maybe starvation of oil due to wheelies in my engine, lost power. It started making a weird noise and basically broke / “blew up”

I’m in the middle of an engine swap and I’m very curious what you guys think might’ve failed based on this picture

Puff of smoke on startup? And ammonia smell in exhaust?

Rarely but occasionally, I will get a pretty sizable puff of smoke from the exhaust on start up and it happens randomly so I have not been able to get a video of it.

I’ve heard this could be normal from oil leak through on piston rings due to the boxer engine or something?

Is it a cause for concern?

Secondly, I feel like I do notice a weird smell I think ammonia from my exhaust is that something to be concerned about as well?

New engine thrown in. Reset odometer?

I’m putting in a new engine that has about 1000 miles estimated on it.

My old engine blew up around 9000 miles

I’m wondering it might be cool to reset the odometer down to 1000.

I have an expensive two-way communication OBD computer for cars and I also have a Yamaha OBD adapter in the mail coming my way

Is this even possible to do?
