I take the gasket out of the box a day or two before. I also remove the whole bracket because squeezing the Plastic tabs to slide it through will ruin it after a few, Since you need to change the Trans oil 3 or 4 times to replace 80%of the oil, you'll Never get it all unless you drop the trans and take it apart, drain Torque Convertor and Trans Cooler in the Radiator, means doing it once helps a bit but doesn't change it all.

      This is some great advice-I hate to admit it (live and learn), but we are back having issues with the tranny again. It won't go in reverse. Drives forward fine. I've been told its likely a mechanical issue, not a solenoid/servo. I've seen some people try to replace the servo, some add an extension kit-not sure why that's working, but this is the second time with tranny problems. Already put one in that we got from a salvage yard.

    Hi Matthew! This was surely a fund video to watch. Thanks for the review! Just for your information, compost you make through reencle is real compost, but just like other compost, you need curing period of 3weeks before you use it. So i'd recommend you to use it having 3 weeks curing and use! Our customers who use tumblers usually put breaking big chunks in tumbler and put it into reencle when its breaks down, or they add compost from reencle to their backyard compost pile so both of them work actually! hope this was helpful to you!

    It's been a month... whats your opinion? We have a two bin system and a tumbler but we're partly disabled and it's beyond difficult to turn so I've been considering this for over a year. I'd want to go straight into the garden like it says. Something on their website about 1 part reencle to 4 parts soil and let it sit for 3-4 weeks in a bag.... I'd probably just let it sit in my garden beds for a few weeks before planting but yeah lol

      I’ve been very happy with how it’s been holding up. The drying feature has worked well when it’s too wet, and it turn into compost quickly. I’ve been adding it to the tumbler, but I may soon cut out the middle man and go straight to the garden. I’ve thought about adding some dirt into a horizontal tumbler to manage the ratios. When trying to empty that vertical tumbler to fill a raised bed the other day, I realized why the guy sold it to me :)

    I have spent a lot of time in that building and it is not haunted at all. Just an old building with creaks and moans. There are no hiding rooms or anything like that. The building ceased being a Masonic Temple (Now called Masonic Centers in Iowa) in the early 90's and has been remodeled in multiple stages since. A lot of rooms that were separate have been conjoined and a few new walls were put in to form office space. I joined the lodge about two decades after the building was sold but have gone through it with those who were Masons when it was sold.

      Thanks for chiming in! I can rationalize the lights flickering on in an old building, and perhaps even the elevators acting up. However, a more challenging phenomenon to explain logically is the door that was propped open by a 5-gallon bucket filled with hammers. How did it close on its own, and why did the bucket return to its original spot? Additionally, we need an explanation for the accounts of footsteps sounds heard by multiple individuals on a supposedly vacant floor. Also, I'm curious about your thoughts on the hidden chamber leading to the shaft in the floor. Do you have any insights?

Meeting Forest will always cast a magical glow over everything, including my novel, in spite of my ex's behavior. It's a really funny novel. It's completely inspired by the real hunt; you want to check it out? I can send you a link.

      @@fliptopmedia If you are keeping it weird, you've come to the right place. Its been a minute, so trying to dig back into the archives: It was a 1965 Tular, aka Pony Express Triwheeler, three speed with reverse shift on the column. Patented and designed by Robert Von Heck, it has a manual transmission and was designed to out perform the Cushmans and Westcoasters for mail delivery back in the day. According to Von Heck himself: It is a very rare survivor 'PonyExpress' triwheeler that I designed and patented & prototyped for the USPS back in 1964, which won a design-contest awarding initial production/contract for 65,000 to then German-owned TAPCO Inc. of Van Nuys, California. While exceedingly well-made, with full-2" tubular-steel frame, and stability far superior to the crude earlier Cushman Mailster, only some 350 units were actually produced. (A Cushman tipped over, killing its driver, and the Postmaster in his Limousine on the way to his Washington DC USPS, office picked up his car-phone in an ignorant panic reaction, and canceled the entire order on this wonderful advanced-design!!!) I never made a dime on the contract; -however, I still have the prototype & patent, and am contemplating a modern electric-powered version." The engine is a Onan CCK two cylinder engine. You can still find parts for them as they are used often as generators and with RVs I think. Couple of links for you: minutia-microcarsminicars.blogspot.com/2009/01/is-it-cushman-truckstera-mailsteror.html www.gao.gov/products/b-160834#mt=summary dspace.wrlc.org/doc/get/2041/53531/b20f13-0219udisplay.pdf (link broken, but you may be able to email the address on the screen to track down the old article). barnfinds.com/1965-tapco-pony-express/. (Good backstory) patents.justia.com/inventor/robert-von-heck (Patents by Von Heck, most recent in 2007, maybe he's still around and you could track him down and find an old manual) I'd join the Cushman Truckster Group on Facebook. There's not a lot of people who own these. Whatever you do, make sure to stop buy and post a link to yours once you get it up and running. I'd love to stop by and grab a cup of coffee sometime!

    A logical solution to the puzzle: The poem begins with the epilogue. After that, the clues to the path and the place where he deposited the treasure begin. Where the description of the place and route alternate from stanza to stanza: Begin it where warm waters halt (path: starts at the confluence of the Boiling River and the Yellowstone River) And take it in the canyon down (location) Not far but to tar to walk (way: 10 miles which is better to drive by car) Put in below the home of Brown (location: under the winter roost of a brown bear) From there it's no place for the meek (way: through strong white water) The end is ever drawing night (location: the end is not far away) There'll be no paddle up your creek (path: current is too strong) Just heavy loads and water high (location: rocks and deep water) The description of the canyon at Osprey Falls follows in the epilogue.

      There is some interesting history in this family tree as it pertains to some more esoteric traditions. Some your your observations have meaning in those traditions as well. More on that in another video!
