Ordered the parts today Well decided to go with the full meal deal and got the shaft, bearings, and install tool for 119 shipped. I saw a few offers for renting the tool for 25 plus 69 shipping which would be refunded if you returned the tool, at least the shipping. I figure I like to keep my...

Thanks, I looked at a few videos too after posting and doing more part no searches and it looks easy enough. I can get a complete main shaft with the bearings and tool for about 118 shipped with a warranty. The old shaft is PROBABLY OK only being maybe 3 years old or so now but probably best to...

Well poked around once I found the part no's and I can buy JUST the bearings for around 20 and the whole replacement shaft and bearings kit for 50 up. If I do just the bearings I might need the bearing tool, if I get the whole package I think it's just a pull old out, put everything together on...

Well it appears my nice HE washer has already eaten it's tub bearing. It sounds like a jet on spin now and I can hear grindy noises when I spin the tub manually. Been trying to find a download of a service manual to look at the part number and what it entails to tear it down and replace it...

Car hit a pole right down the street and killed power to my neighborhood. House next door has solar with backup batteries that will run critical stuff for a few hours. Of course seeing how it only affected 837 homes they took their time fixing it. Power was out for 12 hours but luckily our old...

The house we had built in 77 had gfi outlets in the bathrooms only with the test/reset buttons. The manufacturered home I have now was built/placed here in 96. The regular bathroom has a gfi outlet, the master bathroom doesn't, the kitchen has one by the sink. The outside outlet has one too...

You can get very expensive record cleaning machines that are basically a wet dry shop vac built into a box with a turntable type platter on top with a protected slot to vacuum off the dust and wet cleaning solution. There are interesting cheaper versions that may or may not work that well too...

I was just out of high school a while and was inside getting ready to go to work in Gresham Oregon at our newish built for us family house. I remember watching the parking lot of the Safeway across from our backyard and seeing it get fully dark and the headlights come on of the cars. It was...

Got a really awesome looking 55" Hisense 55H8C from Best Buy for 550 this April. 4k with HDR, 4 HDMI inputs, lots of advanced picture adjustments and excellent black levels with a extremely bright picture with a lot of pop. Came with a 4 year warranty too and looks as good or better than sets...

I still like my he toploader The Kenmore 28102 still seems to be working fine since 2014 and I figured when it breaks it will be cheap and easy to service since it's a Whirlpool machine DD with a wash plate. Same thing clothes are cleaner saves a lot of water and electricity and does a lot...

My S3 would just suddenly die or reboot and it was the battery, after all its over 5 years old. They have user replaceable batteries and I got new slightly higher capacity battery on Amazon prime for like 10 bucks. Phone holds a charge about 2 days on standby now and doesn't just randomly reboot...

Looks like a brand new unit, hope you got it. We used to hit local thrift store/junk shops when we were kids as a poor family. I loved seeing all the old junk, antique radios, tv's etc. We have a 3 door mirrored medicine cabinet from the good will store mom found cheap in the master bathroom...

Get them on my cell phone all the time. Latest one is your insurance provider has assigned us as your new health insurance provider, call for a 20 bonus. Why would my state medicaid expansion provide suddenly switch me from my state backed provider, and why would the new one give away 20 bucks...

Realtors The lady that helped us was great. Our budget was low but it was summer of 12 so LOTS of houses to look at, most were junk. She also had a great backup guy for when she was busy and he didn't know all my requirements but decided to show us this house after looking at another dud. He...

I think I got them about 90 yes and the set was originally meant to be installed in a apartment and was BOL stuff. I liked Whirlpool even then but the deal was too good to pass up so bought em anyways and got more time then most did outa the washer. I was just happy to have a new matched set...

The first new washer/dryer combo I got was a Hot Point set in about 90. I knew they were probably junk but they were so cheap I took a chance after asking a few shops what they thought of them. Washer actually worked ok but noisy for about 10 years which amazed the shop I called looking for...

Good luck, I'm sure you guys have different stuff on that side of the pond but I really like TR3 wax when I can find it. It used to be non abrasive and really brought back badly oxidized paint on my old cars and I think it was good at polishing plastic too. The new stuff may no longer be...

We converted to fluorescent and now led. The first ones saved us about 20 a month on our electric bill and once warmed up were about as bright. The power company gives out a free resource saver kit that came with 8 60 watt led bulbs in the warm color spectrum. I have since went to the day light...

I usually use some kind of non abrasive or very fine abrasive car wax on things like that. There are all kinds of cleaners and polish on the market that might work. I think I even have seen stuff to do the plexiglass windscreens on air planes. Try it somewhere you wont see to test whatever you...

Our house came with new bol SS appliances, but house was dirt cheap and everything looks and works better then the old appliances I had at my rental I kept repairing. It also had reasonably nice cabinets which was a selling point as at least the kitchen was nice and ready to go for the great...
