Thanks guys. I imagine it's hard to keep dirt (error sand) out of your engine bay EOD. Very hard.
Yes sir. I run up to Austin every so often to pick up craigslist or OfferUp finds. Used to have to go through frequently to round rock to visit Ikea. Now, thankfully, we have our own.

What did you do to / for your E53 today??

Sounds like you need something like a spade bolt something that is not difficult to fabricate and stronger than an eye welded to threaded rod. Something you can. Just buy in certain sizes and easy enough to fabricate in any size. ![]() An example spade bolt. I use them for a few different projects: one example is holding a handrail to the wall. 3/8 spade though a 3/8 ID aluminum tube. Tighten the bejesus out of it and have maybe 1800# of preload so the handrail is the stiffest you've ever seen. (this way I can get away with minimal finger smashing zones) it feels like welded metal handrail when mounted to studs. My brother also runs a machine shop. Get me some exact sizes I'm pretty sure one way or another we can get that fixed for you.

You do know it's ok to steer around/slow down for pot holes, correct?
(Says the guy who bent a rim and dented the front subframe of his z28 by hitting pothole and super deep road crown). The second one was not expected: where two roads cross the depth of the crown on the corner can make for a very big dip. I passed a turning car in the parking lane and bottomed out the car hard enough to hit the subframe and put a 3x4" dent about 1/4" deep in 1/4" thick steel!
