    What floor jack do you use?

    Low profile quick-lift jack from Harbor Freight. Worked great out of the box, and has for the two years I've had it in occasional use.

    That's not out of line, labor is expensive. The part itself will be around $120-150: https://www.etrailer.com/hitch-2004_Ford_Focus.htm?style=Sedan That's with some random guesses on what kind of Focus you have. They are easy enough to install if you are handy and have the right tools. Any...

    So is it just a fact of life that my door is going to drip everywhere?

    Thanks for the insight. I think you're onto the idea- mine aren't actually installed upside down, but the square protrusion on the top has been dented in to allow water to pool in a low spots along their edges. This door has been crashed before by an inattentive driver not pulling far enough in...

    So is it just a fact of life that my door is going to drip everywhere?

    I'm talking about the day after it rains, and the skies are clear. I open the garage door and all sorts of water starts to drip onto the contents of my garage from all the nooks and crevices of the garage that filled up with water when it was raining. Normal?

    So is it just a fact of life that my door is going to drip everywhere?

    Everytime it rains, my garage door drips all over everything in the garage the first time I open it. Is this normal? I like for my things in the garage to stay dry, not get dripped on.

    Loaded compact vs naked sedan

    Yes, I agree with NutBucket. A higher specification model of a smaller car you can live with is going to be better as a daily driver than a bigger, stripped-down car. I always enjoyed my older, higher-trim-level used cars more than brand-new stripped-down rentals.

    Anyone here know about a John Deere Gator?

    My work uses them for the maintenance guys to get around between buildings. According to the second-shift maintenance guy in my building, they are "tougher than the back wall of a shooting gallery".

    I've got the urge to go electric ...

    On that last point: There are two different kinds of bars: charge bars and capacity bars. The Leaf shows all charge bars at 100% SOC regardless of battery pack health. The capacity bars are the ones to look for, and don't change in number at different SOCs. Have you driven a Leaf before...

    Took my homebrew electric motorcycle out for its maiden voyage this weekend. 65 mile loop, with stops and charging throughout the day. Not sure how much the single-charge range is yet, probably about 40 miles.

    Identical phone w/o contract $40 at BB. New screen is $45. Transplant?

    My wife broke the screen on her Moto G which is on Republic Wireless. I can get a replacement front panel on eBay for $45 shipped. However, Best Buy is offering an unactivated device, but Verizon branded, for $40, which I could pick up locally. Is there any reason I wouldn't just pick up the $40...

    DIY wood car ramps

    I did this. I cut the angle I wanted in 2x10s, leaving 12" or so , then nailed 5-6 of them together to make a full-width ramp for each side. The lumber is up on its edge in the design I used. I didn't like them- super heavy and 10" was too high. I accidentally left them in a shed when I moved...

    Replace AC compressor clutch bearing without breaking lines?

    I was able to do this, partway, this evening. I was able to remove the clutch and press out the bearing like in the videos above, and now I'm going to wait for a new bearing to arrive. Sweet!

    Replace AC compressor clutch bearing without breaking lines?

    Replace AC compressor clutch bearing without breaking lines?

    My AC compressor clutch is making noise. I isolated it by removing the accessory belt and starting for 10s. The only other items on that belt are the alternator and an idler, which both spin freely. Compressor has some sticking. Noise used to only be heard when AC was off, now can be heard with...

    Motorcycle brake issue is driving me nuts.

    That's good to know, I didn't know that was possible. My reservoir was not overfull, so sadly I can't blame it on that. I still can't figure out why pushing the rear brake lever results in zero piston movement, though. Bad MC is my best guess, even though the seals etc looked fine when I took it...

    Motorcycle brake issue is driving me nuts.

    My rear brakes on my motorcycle locked up last week, it was no good. It was gradual, but ended up with the wheel unwilling to turn. It freed up ~15 minutes later after cooling down from smoking hot. I took the caliper apart, wiped things down, but did not see any obvious damage or wear. This...

    Brushless DC motors and three-phase motors are not all that different, in fact. I think that what most EVs use today at PMAC motors which also happen to be 3-phase. They receive a sine wave (three, actually) from the inverter. Brushless DC motors get a square wave. I think they take an...

    I commute 2.5 miles, so I only really get heat for half my commute. I do take longer trips "to town" occasionally throughout the week. The Echo gave me 37mpg last fillup.

    In a nutshell, it take 4.5 to 6 kWh of electricity (almost always coal-generated) to make a gallon of gasoline. Most lower-MPG cars are already using more electricity than EVs. Driving electric takes a whole step and ingredient out of the mix- instead of using electricity and oil to drive, you...

    Just got a text from friend - he also got a hybrid. UPDATE: My Prius is totalled!

    How about a Volt? Said to handle car seats, gets great mileage even after your 40 miles of electricity runs out, and is pretty luxurious.
