VERY GOOD.'CEPT FOR THE JAR HEAD PART!
AIRBORNE RANGER ('82-'87) WAS ON A SNIPER TEAM DURING THE LAST 2 YEARS OR SO. STATIONED AT HUNTER ARMY AIRFIELD SAVANNAH, GA (WHEN I WAS THERE) I'VE BEEN TO "THE ISLAND" MANY TIMES TO SHOOT ON YA'LLS "GOLF COURSE SHOOTING RANGES"!
1ST PIC SEE WHAT TOOK THE PLACE OF MY US ARMY "DINKY" RIFLE EXPERT BADGE (THIS WAS PRIOR TO GETTING E-5)
2ND AND 3RD PIC-- GLIMPSES INTO MY MAN CAVE COMPLETE WITH FULL SIZE "TOY RANGER". MY 2ND "GOOD (KEEPER) WIFE" LET ME HAVE THIS ROOM
OK.I WON'T WASTE MY TIME WITH PICS OF THE TRANSFER CASE POSITIONS. SINCE YOU GOT IT STRAIGHT
.I'M GOOD AIN'T I.I HAVEN'T SEEN IT ALL, I HAVE SEEN THE "NAIL THING" IN THE LINKAGE BEFORE!
COMES FROM OWNING NOTHING BUT 6 CJ 5s AND 1 WILLYS, SINCE 1981---WHICH ARE/HAVE BEEN MY PRIMARY DRIVERS.I'VE HAD THE '77 AND '46 SINCE THE EARLY '90s (THEY SEEM TO LAST LONGER AS YOU GET OLDER). NO TELLIN' HOW MANY I'VE HELPED WITH FOR OTHERS
I STARTED DOIN' THE COMPUTER THING (NEVER HAD TOUCHED ONE BEFORE) IN DECEMBER '08 WHEN I BROKE MY FOOT AT WORK AND HAD MANY COMPLICATIONS WITH IT. THAT'S HOW I SORTA GOT STARTED AT 2CAR.
IT'S A CHALLENGE SOMETIMES, WHEN YOU CAN'T SLAP SOMEONE ON THE BACK OF THEIR HEAD AND "HANDS ON" SHOW 'EM WHAT TO DO. I AM THANKFUL THAT MOST OF THE CJ QUESTIONS I ANSWER, HAVE SOMEONE COMPETENT ON THE OTHER END.I DO ANSWER OTHER CARS AND TRUCKS, THAT I HAVE SOME KNOWLEDGE OF, OR ARE GENERIC. THESE NEW COMPUTER RIGS ARE TOO DANG COMPLICATED WITH SENSORS
I AM STRICTLY DIY, MOSTLY WITH A REPAIR MANUAL, LEARNING FROM OTHERS, "SCHOOL OF HARD KNOCKS". I HAVE AUTO EXPERIENCE (MOSTLY CJs) AND RELATED TRAINING.I DID NOT GO TO SCHOOLS (EXCEPT FOR HIGH SCHOOL, AUTO, ELECTRICITY, AND MACHINE SHOP.I'M PRETTY GOOD WITH "PRE-COMPUTER AGE VEHICLES)
I'LL HANG WITH YOU. AS LONG AS YOU KEEP THROWIN' STUFF AT ME
HAVE YOU SEEN OTHER POSTS O HAVE ANSWERED?
AS FAR A NEW PARTS YOU NEED.
THIS IS "ADVANCE AUTO PARTS". WHERE I DID THIS
I RECENTLY PURCHASED A JEEP BATTERY. AND JUG OF WASHER FLUID TO "GET ME" OVER THE $100 MARK
THIS ALLOWED ME TO USE "ONE" OF MANY PROMO CODES I COULD FIND FOR THE STORE. THIS PARTICULAR ONE SAVED ME THE MOST FOR MY PURCHASE AMOUNT (OVER $100 SAVE $40!).
I JUST GRAB A NEW TAB AND TYPE IN "PROMO CODES FOR ADVANCE AUTO (OR WHEREVER)". YOU MUST LOOK THRU LOTS OF SITES TO FIND THE BEST DEALS
YOU GOTTA DO YOUR HOMEWORK TO GET THE MOST OUTTA WHATEVER PROMO CODES YOU FIND (MAYBE ONE MIGHT SAY "OVER $200 SAVE 30% + A $50 COUPON"
IF YOU ARE GONNA "PICK UP AT STORE"---RULE OUT THE FREE SHIPPING PROMOS
. THIS "SYSTEM" WORKS AT AN AUTO PARTS STORE. ELECTRONICS STORES. STEAK HOUSES. USE YOUR IMAGINATION!
JUST FOR GIGGLES, I PUT IN THE SAME PROMO CODE I USED ( "FABU" ) AND "PRETENDED A PURCHASE" ---STUCK IT IN MY CART THEN RAN IT THRU THE CHECK OUT. THIS PROMO CODE "FABU" STILL WORKS FOR OVER $100."SELECT STORE" AND "PICK UP AT STORE". ALL YOU GOTTA DO IS WAIT AN HOUR. CODES DO EXPIRE. NOOOO! I TOOK IT OUT OF MY CART, YOU'RE SORTA BACK ON YOUR OWN!
I AM NOT TELLING YOU TO RUSH OUT AND SPEND $$$.I'M JUST TRYING TO HELP IF YOU HAVE TO, EVEN IF YOU GOTTA THROW IN A USEFUL ITEM (RAGS, WAX, TOOLS, WHATEVER), TO GET THE MOST OUT OF A CODE. HOW 'BOUT THIS?
GOT A OVER $200 ORDER--NO PROMOS HELP A LOT?----SPLIT IT INTO 2 SEPARATE ONLINE ORDERS OF JUST OVER $100 EACH---PROMO CODE EACH ONE. IN RANGER BATTALION THE SAYIN' WAS, "IF YOU AIN'T CHEATIN'. YOU AIN'T TRYIN'!"
USE THIS METHOD NOT ONLY FOR THIS ISSUE, BUT DOWN THE ROAD TOO FOR OTHER STUFF. MAYBE A FLAT SCREEN TV?
I DID A SCREEN SHOT OF MY PURCHASE--IT MAYBE HARD TO SEE.I SAVED $40 ON A $96 BATTERY AND SOME WIPER JUICE!
WHAT A DEAL!1. GOOD THING YOU HOOKED UP WITH ME HUH?
WHAT DO YOU WANT TO ATTACK NEXT?
