Coadster32 793 #26 Posted November 17, 2014 Had to replace the shackle on my ford ranger a few years back. Rusted right thru. Bolted in a new one, then welded it in place. Added new bushings, and off I went. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 43,736 #27 Posted November 17, 2014 Glad you got it fixed quick Karl. Sometimes spending a few bucks and have someone else do it is the way to go. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nylyon-(Admin) 7,880 #28 Posted November 17, 2014 Got it back. The other thing that the inspection place mentioned was my 3rd brake light wasn't working. I have one on the truck and one on the cap and neither worked so I figured it was a fuse. Checked all the fuses, they were all fine, pulled the interior rear light off so I could access the wires for the truck mounted light and the wiring is fine, so the bulb must be bad, but the cap is on so can't change it. Checked at the back of the truck and the wiring is fine. There's an in-line fuse behind the tail light, swapped that our and it's working. At the same time Megan says.... "oh yeah dad, the rear view mirror fell off the Jeep".... So I looked, not only did it fall off, but the windshield is cracked around the mount... I'm done, gonna do some drinking now....

KyBlue 655 #31 Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) Yeah your insurance should pay for the glass ... Lord I'm glad we don't do inspections here after the initial transfer ... It's nothing but a money game for the state cuz Inspections isn't gonna stop that idiot from running lumber out his window and with some folding green I can always buy a passed inspection, or simply rig it to pass ...
