Pigeon on my Truck
This pigeon showed up at my house, came in my garage and sat on the workbench. Then it jumped on my shoulder and stayed there while I walked around the house ! Finally got it to sit on my trailer but when I got in my truck it flew to the windshield and stayed there until I got out to the main road ! Flew off and I haven't seen it since. Craziest thing I've ever seen from a pigeon !!

Long Beach Horn Noon Test

This is a re-creation of the old noon test in Long Beach , NY. The horns in Long Beach were decommissioned decades ago so I brought mine back to town for a 40th reunion of when my engine company took on the logo "Suicide Squad", which it still carries today. The Noon test was two blasts of all the horns (there were 3 throughout the city) each day at 12 pm. I'm using the Gamewell Type B Diaphone...

This was the first real test of my Gamewell Type B Diaphone horn. I tested both aluminum pistons I have, both without the 40 holes and extra collar. . The piping on the supply was restricted to 1/2 inch rather than the required 1 inch but the horn still operated pretty well. But this, no doubt, had some effect on the power of the blast. Definite tone difference between the 2 pistons though they...

    Not sure if anyone will watch this or read the comments after 8 years but I just changed my supports an hour ago. I watched this video and could not understand the need for torching and still don’t. Maybe something is different about my 2007? Anyway I bought the supports from an online Toyota parts dealer-er 😜 and the pair, OEM, was just over $100. The bolt/ball came off with a 6” long 12 mm wrench. On one I used a pipe on the wrench for extra torque but did not need this for the other one. It’s bit tedious because you can only turn the wrench at most a 1/4 of a turn. Wish there was an explanation somewhere on how to pop the socket off. The new parts have the ball/bolt separated from the support. Once you have the ball/bolt and the support installed the socket just pops over the ball with thumb pressure - piece of cake. I thought I would have hammer it on. One of the easiest installs I’ve ever had to do.

    • @captfxco

      I had to heat mine to get it off, it just would not break loose. Glad yours went easier. Now if I only still had the truck. The frame rusted thru in multiple places 5 yrs ago at 135k miles and Toyota wouldn't cover the 4Runner frames even though MANY had catastrophic rust problems. Best truck I ever owned til that happened. I took meticulous care of it too.

    Wish it was that easy for mine. I've rounded off that nut on the lower ball right above the taillight on my son's 2003 model. They must have welded it on. After rounding it off with the correct sized wrench, i tried with needle nose vice grips with no luck. It's ridiculous. The same job took 5 minutes for my wife's 2011 Highlander.

    This is a really great video on how to replace these support struts! It was hard to find a video with the same kind of hardware being used which is like the one I bought from a different brand. Luckily I didn't have to break out a torch to get anything removed, HOWEVER, to anyone who purchased the Maxpow type struts be advised that you have to remove a C clip from the ball end BEFORE installing the ball end and then you have to REPLACE the C clip after installation to keep the struts in place. I didn't see that part of this in this video and I'm assuming its because the type of struts he purchased maybe didn't need to have a pin removed and replaced to keep the ball end in place but mine did. It took me about 10 minutes to figure out how the struts stay in place and finally realized that you have to do what I said above. Once again, great video and thanks for your help! I am fixing up my 2005 4Runner with 230,000 miles which is running great but I am replacing things on it that need to be replaced like these struts.
