No joke, my friend and me had to cut a 22 inch spoke off of a caprice he bought out of somebodys yard. It only came with that one wheel because the previous owners had not been able to get it off either.....It was fun though

well that wasn't the smartest thing to do but....im new to working on vehicles too and im 29.  nobody ever taught me anything and so all the little things i do are learning as i go.  i have problems with little problems that most of you guys could do everyday in your sleep.  but that doesnt mean i dont have the desire to learn how and im having fun learning as i go.  i hope one day when i have an issue and ask this forum for help i dont get labeled as a complete dumby.  i dont want to feel bad about not knowing this stuff.  lets give the guy a break

if you have a question then ask don't do something then ask, ask first. heck even blazen on here who normally answers question ask some sometimes. even if you do do something stupid which i think we all done you wont be made fun of "at least in front of you" lol j/k.

An accident or simple mistake is understandable. My old boss told me almost every day if you do not break something once and a while you ain't working. But if you are destroying something and think it is funny while your doing it. That is a good indicator you are stupid (and fired). That guy could have drove to almost any shop and have had a nut welded to the lug nut then most likely removed  it with an impact.

alright so next time i do something really stupid i just wont post a video or pics.  then....who's to know right
and yea  people think im weird for enjoying my 97 ugly truck but i definately ask before doing something on my truck.  especially on here where it seems like every project/problem someone on here has already done it.  ive found this forum so useful already.  for example i had to put a new key cylinder in my truck cuz my key wouldnt shut off.  i found a link in here about fixing a sloppy tilt wheel and the pics and everything helped so much.
 thank you guys
mark :)
