  1. Still collecting parts. Need rotors and pads
  2. I have a project I want to do. I have a 83 mile one way commute, AC compressor on my accord seized, and I had to daily the truck for a couple weeks while I waited for parts. The truck’s brakes were not to my liking on the mountain. When I looked up some order history, they were last changed on 2016 when I put the 2005-06 larger front brakes on. Decided to do the 2019 4 piston and saw a CHP Tahoe and its 20 inch wheels. Started digging deeper and now it’s getting the 6 piston Brembo calipers. So I needed a larger spare wheel. Still in the part collection phase. Also realized I had a hydroboost unit on the shelf in the garage that’s been sitting for about 7 years. The Tahoe steel 20 fits on the 2004 carrier. Just hangs down a little more
  3. Well I’m back from the dead, truck is dug out of mothballs with parts ordered, and I guess I’ll revive this thread too. Got a 2025 Tahoe PPV wheel in and later today after I wake up I need to find a tire. Doesn’t look bad for a steel 20
  4. Post is legal. 1. There currently is no SECDEF 2. There is no classified information mentioned 3. There is no sensitive information mentioned such as tail numbers and locations Only plane mentioned was an F-16 which many countries have. I’ve personally worked on US, Norwegian, Belgian, and Moroccan F-16’s. I’m an F-16 mechanic. Also I’m not enlisted. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
  5. They feel like my shop does during a F-16 phase or when a certain type of other plane comes in, contractor or not [emoji23] You guys are that bad, but sometimes with the military it’s like an invasion. If that fancy fighter comes in that we have like 4 of built before yours comes in, we have no room. They bring like the whole crew Chief section Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
  6. Raining in Tehachapi. Tuesday night I had to change the tire on my Honda in the rain on the side of 58. Had to drive the truck today Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
  7. My 2016 Honda Civic was built in Canada Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
  8. Went and started my truck for the first time in about a month. Waiting on it to get up to temp before I shut it down for a couple more weeks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
  9. I’m surprised you guys aren’t packing our hangars. Got room for 2 of yours [emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

  12. I don’t read those. I’m too worried about not speeding on base. Now you want me to read too... have you met anyone in the fuel shop? Those fumes make us not so smart Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
  13. You think I’m that good at my job? I park on the flightline and don’t read that stuff. Plus I don’t think those are posted at the entrance off 58 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
  14. Bull. That thing isn’t allowed on the flightline [emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
