snowed in - watching maint videos! (sticking front brake)
« on: January 27, 2026, 11:02:03 AM »
I like a lot of the parts of this video - unfortunately weather (-22ºF 'apparent') right now prevents me from giving these tips a try! The Scotch Brite sanding belt!, etc.
Down to actual -3ºF last night.
I love this, @ 6:14.... a JIS screwdriver is best on Japanese rides! Ask me how I know.....



Looking forward to giving this a whirl when the weather breaks!
right now have a heat pad on my lower
back after shoveling 12"+ from the driveway yesterday. So cold I used my battery heated scooter gauntlets!

The local Chevy dealer keeps trying to buy my 20 yr old Silverado. But, I know what I have....plus it was a 'gift' from my late FIL. @70K miles, runs perfectly.

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.

too tired to clean off my truck, maybe tomorrow, we got about 20 inches, glad I bought my tractor, this storm would suck with a snowblower or my little UTV plow
