  1. I stole this from sporting news.

     

    The NBA is big business, so it would make the best business sense for the league's big markets to thrive. Yet, the Spurs have won five championships over the past two decades under coach Gregg Popovich. San Antonio is among the NBA's smallest media markets by population.

     

    The Lakers, Bulls, Knicks and Nets all failed to reach the playoffs this season. If the NBA has no problem sacrificing its long-term credibility for the sake of maximizing its profits, wouldn't it behoove it to do whatever's necessary for its big-market teams to thrive year after year?

  2. The NBA is far too large of an organization for it to be rigged. Too many people would need to be involved. It wouldn't go one season without someone finding out, let alone the past however many years its been "rigged".
  3. several years ago I had a lot of #4 I wanted to scrap. I built a small contraption out of wood with a hole in the middle that held a razor blade. You push the wire in to start and the blade split the insulation so you could separate it as you pull it through. Still work but made for quicker work.
  4. I love the show but clearly do not watch it close enough. You guys are ridiculous.

     

    this.

     

    I must be slow. I feel like I'd have to watch every episode six times to catch most of this stuff.

     

    continue on gentlemen.

  5. They did get those bushings from us yesterday. Its common for us to buy parts from each other for same day jobs.

     

    Iirc correctly we charge 3.5-4 hours total to install those same bushings.

     

    And yes we always charge diag fee on top of the actual repair. That only makes sense from a dealer standpoint. There are a few exceptions if there are multiple diag lines and the customers buys in on a lot of the work. So I suppose I can't say always. But for a 1-2 line repair, yes.

  6. Items you should never install on your truck/suv

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Or any size body lift

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Ever.

     

    Yeah yeah, when you are 18 and want a lifted truck you don't always make the wisest choices. It was like $700-800 to get 5" vs probably $2000 for a susp lift.

  7. I did a lift and tires on my 07 2.7l back in the day. I think I did an OME (old man emu maybe?) 3 inch lift. It was springs and leafs. I paired that with a 2 inch body lift. It fit 33x12.5's on 10" wheels just right.

     

    It was always slow and it only made it a bit slower after the tires. I put a catback on it for noise. I dont think intake or exhaust will make any power. I did do a clutch fan delete. I picked up a 3.8 taurus fan from the salvage yard and installed it. I used a universal rad temp sensor and relay kit to power it. Worked well. Helped with the pickup and quiet the engine noises down.
