    Air conditioner compressor

    wouldn't it be more cost effective to just remove the A/C and buy a NEW belt rather then buy something to use your original belt. your going to have to pull the A/C anyways right.

    Windshield washer nozzles?!?!?!

    previous owner of my truck tried the needle trick and just wrecked the driver side nozzle, so i'd recommend against that. i should really just go to the dealer and buy a new set but i hardly ever use the wipers so i always forget.

    How To: converting to open element air cleaner.

    wow i'm impressed a guy that knows his flow meters haha, but yea of coarse they'll work it just comes down to how accurate. but for myself i do agree i would rather go the cold air route, but for those who would choose looks over function the open element looks pretty cool.

    How To: converting to open element air cleaner.

    Brake problem what happened??

    They split the MC for cases like yours, where if you lose a hose you wont drop all your fluid and you will still retain at least some stopping power. hopefully everything went well for ya buddy
