    Head Lights to LED conversion.

    I think whoever, may have made my headlight harness to be plug and play. It's what I was after at the time. I did not want to cut and splice anything. It definitely takes a load off the light switch on vehicles that don't have a headlight relay

    Search best synthetic engine oils. The Tribodyne that Chris sells is good stuff. John Deere is usually good stuff - I don't know what they sell Royal Purple is good, but I never liked the color. I used Amsoil, with very good results. Where I am, I could order and sometimes have it in the...

    Handy electric pruning saw - hack and squirt. Almost chainsaws and wood cutting

    We recently bought a similar saw at an overstock discount store. A friend bought one off Temu that seems OK and has a pole saw extension that seems really handy for pruning. I haven't figured out Temu and I'm not sure I want to. I guess if your buying made in China crap, you had just as...
