1941 1/2 ton project Hannah

[Cuttin up]

As a Honda dealer parts dept employee, we see your fun on a daily basis. Just wait for the oil consumption fun thats hopefully not on its way. It'll need a ring job done at that point, good news is its usually a warranty deal. We do, on average, 3-4 a week here.

The lock nut lower ball joint deal is just odd, I'll have to keep an eye out for that in my future projects.

oil consumption is about a quart a month :/ but I dont think warranty applies at 170k. however its not fouling plugs, so iI think ts going somewhere else other than through the cylinders

the local honda dealer just built a new complex, and all parts got the 3x treatment. The power steering o-ring was 75 cents three years ago, $2.45 now. the valve cover bolts are $7 list, $21 at the dealer. even the valve adjustment, $700 does not figure to 4.5 hours labor. they are just robbing people here.

Yeah some guys love to hit the customer at full tilt and wonder why nobody comes back haha. I can't rape folks like most do, I try to be fair.
