I've had good luck with a breaker bar at the right angle with the handle against the floor or control arm, I cant recall. Had to resort to that because a few wouldn't come even with a good 1/2" impact.

is the surge noticeable anywhere else in the house? if you run the shower and listen to the pressure switch does it click at the same rate as the fluctuation?

look like snap on knock offs.

I blew 6" of green fiber into my 20x30 and have no complaints. I went with cellulose because I HATE fiberglass. cant stand how itchy it makes me. some people aren't affected by it as much as others. the once or twice a year ill be up there was enough to make me not used fiberglass. not to...

i like the idea, ive got 24'' ones off amazon at $60 a piece and they are ridiculously bright, 2 have been on a truck for almost two years, the other one has been on a truck for over a year, with alot of mixed weather and highway km and theres no sign of moisture inside them or dimming. if my...

I would rather not have to do it this way again, After doing it with a standard two post. But you have to work with what you have at the time. I slung the cab from the ceiling and lowered the frame once I had everything undone underneath.

Not necessarily tools. But the Robertson screw came from my hometown. Milton Ontario.

Hey how are yas. Been reading here quite a while. Read lots of the major threads. Gotten lots of ideas. Just having a hard time getting the motivation together To apply them. Hopefully maybe making a thread on my garage and projects will help. Anyways. Just figured I'd post up.
