Housed braces are tough.
Any suggestions? Scribing techniques etc.. my timbers are Imperfect so they end up being scribed custom or else I have big gaps. This one came out okay.. but took adjustment. I just know theres a better way!

Will house my brace joints from here forward. I'm learning..
21 subaru crosstrek has klunk when driving on dirt road. Sounds just like strut mounts sound, replaced with new oem mounts, control arm bushings were worn so I replaced those and the ball joints. Klunking is exactly the same. What else to check? Rhe strut inserts weren't leaking so I didn't replace them, maybe that's what's causing it? Thanks ahead of time for any advice.
Klunk in front end sounds like both sides. Replaced strut mounts, control arms with ball joints (torn rubber visible and leaking ball joints) and klunk persists exactly the same. End links are fine, nothing else visibly worn in front end. No movement in whel when I grab it and shake it. What else could it be? Cv axles? Very noticeable if going downhill on dirt road, sounds exactly like broken strut mounts.
Thanks in advance need some advice.
I have a 4 year old and she gets about an hour a week of TV on Saturdays while we clean. Shes a super busy kid and doesnt ever think about screen time until the weekend so its not witholding anything its just our schedule.
So heres the thing: I noticed a distinct pattern of bratty behavior right after she watches TV (usually Daniel tiger or sesame street) and accepted it as something to do with screen time, this went on for a year or so.
Then I borrowed some 80s sesame Street dvds from the library and I slip those in instead of contemporary TV for her hour of watching here and there. No bratty behavior. None. Happy and uplifted every time. I go back and forth to test the theory and there is a 100% correlation between her behavior after watching new sesame street (less effort, more digital animation, repetitive content to save money, characters like "smarty the smartphone") and 80s sesame Street (physical comedy, live music interludes, analog animation, focus on personal interactions.)
I am super blown away by the stark difference in her behavior after watching the same show produced 40 years apart. It's now been 6 months and the pattern is not a fluke its 100% real. Any insight? What is it about modern shows that make our kids act like brats? And why do I not hear about this phenomenon more?
Gasoline and nylon brush and plastic scraper. No warpaage, previous owner used a sealant and it clogged the valleys was just fixing it and doing timing etc.. is this clean enough? 6 hours in or so between head and block clean
Hi all, having trouble finding these fuel line connectors in the right size. 3/8 inch barbed side. Anyone have any suggestions? Even the local case dealer didnt have them.
98 v6 with 50k on aisin clutch kit. Had a full rig today with 4 people and gear and tried to pass someone on a hkll and the clutch slipped. Seems like the pressure plate should handle that, any insight? Doesn't happen under normal everyday driving conditions.
Kicked the chain and now the cranks dont give any power. The throttle works and I disconnected the wiring harnesses and reconnected woth no luck. Any advice? Motor has 200 miles on it and has worked well- ride in 300w assist, was being ridden by my 70 year old father in mode 1 at the time of chain loss so it wasnt being abused.
