Building permit in hand...

Dang, I didnt realize they were so expensive. I have one for my 89 Foxbody and Moates tuning software. TD, if I can find it I'd be willing to let you borrow if wanted. To be honest I only use it a time or 2 per year.

Got the front brakes replaced and went for a ride. Much better now. This was the backside of the rotors Drivers was worse. Complete junk. Non-coated rotors dont stand a chance in NYS.

So my understanding is the GSL is the actual snow load. Which for our area is 50psf, looks like these are 71psf so we should be good there. Kinda strange to me they separate GSL from TCLL. To me the snow is a live load thing. Im sure up in AK you guys need some serious snow load engineering...

Luckily my current camper is very streamline and low at a height of 10' 3". It is my understanding we will be about 16' since we are going trusses across the 42' width. Waiting for the engineer to stamp the truss drawings. We decided to have the peak be centered over the entire building with...

Im NOT happy right now. I've paid my fee (and left a VM confirming), with no response from the Clerk. I've submitted all my project details to the codes guy, with no update to my emails requesting update or permit in hand. Im calling Monday as an irate tax payer.... If the builder tells me he...

All parts are in.

We are struggling with the color. I want maroon and black, but their maroon is a very very dark burgundy. I asked the builder to bring some sample chips over for one of the most difficult decisions of my life. I went last thursday to pay my building permit. This will be the 2nd time I ateempted...

Got the next load of stone and paper down today. This is where we will stop with the stone until the barn is up! Spent some time re-staking the barn layout since we are upsizing the lean-to to 12-feet wide. I also got the french drain covered with a good 10-plus inches of soil above some...

I agree, I think the 2 post is the more economical solution for what you can do with it. I know you can outfit a 4 post with mid jacks, but that all adss up quick. I do like the idea of drive on and go up. But cost, safety features, and quality are what I need to focus on. My dad actually has...

That price seems steep to me for what the ad portrays!

I agree on a name brand, just really worried about its past life. Most require you to take down in their shop, which may help with assembly. Bendpak, even used may be out of my price range. Seeing $4-5K used. Other main brands I see are Forward, Mowhawk, and challenger. I do see ALI certified...

I am starting to research the purchase of a 2 or 4-post lift for my at home pole barn. Does anyone else here have a lift in their garage? Im looking for something tall as I will have 16-foot ceilings. My BIL has a 10K Halo lift (floor plate style as he has a lower ceiling) that seems to work...

Got the brakes ordered for the Yukon. Went with all ACDelco Gold Professional coated rotors and pads. Really hope to get some extended intervals with these over the aftermarket brands. Also got a set of Motorcraft rotors and pads for the MILs 04 Ford Explorer.

We made the initial deposit today, materials will be ordered tomorrow. We are just waiting on the engineered truss drawings for submission to the permit department. Got another load of stone roughly down. Will work on the edges at a later date. Another load ordered for Wednesday or Thursday.

Very true. When I got everything off, all looked well on the snout of the compressor. I guess we will find out down the road if it did take some life off the compressor or will eventually leak!

Welp, finally made time to pick up a clutch assembly and install it. AC is back up and running just in time for a "heat wave" next week. Really thinking bearing failure here now. This thing got HOT.... I did check all pulleys before our SC trip in early April and didnt see/feel anything out...

Confirmed we are next in the schedule for construction. I need to meet with the contractor Monday to put the deposit in for materials.

Next load of driveway stone just showed up. We also signed the paperwork for the HELOC today. I got shorted on my funds with some nuisance requirements they put on me. Of course these didnt come out till just this past week, and we are so far into the process i really dont want to start over...
