lol you're so funny little teabagger

Little teabagger is up to 235lbs nowdays
Some may know bits and pieces, some seen the video before but this is where the name came from;
the Cheverolet dealer sent over corvettes cause they couldn't get them right so mr goodwrench got to eat some humble pie from a specialist. I don't do this shit anymore, should have realized its for younger men like football...
Yes its a greasy assed mess, trust me at the end of the day you won't give a rats ass about cleaning anymore than just putting tools back so their found in morning.
So -

This beam adds up to 1,000lbs as pictured and with one hand I fling it around like a fucking child does a rag doll,

From the "wall of toys"

Meander a 70lb chunk of T1 steel called a clevis between drag link try to get it as close to tire as possible

Setup the beam, pick up the hydraulic rams with 1 hand while sliding steel plates to make it tighter = more pressure.
From front: this hydraulically repositions the passenger side to - camber
Gotta have "feel" for how much pressure and how far to go safely.

Bending camber for drivers side to +

^^This is where it takes the most pressure, on larger (18,000lb) axles I used both rams and reconfigured side to side up/down until my specific angles were attained.
The red rams are 100ton and weigh 95lbs and the black one is 130ton weighing 135lbs.
Placing a penny on a traintrack is a joke in comparison to what these fuckers do  
Donno where they went, ex prolly threw away...

The above daily workout + using my 1" drive gun on U-bolts to change shims between spring and axle,

See the gap between spring and axle?
DON'T put your fingers in there, if something happens they are crushed.
Swap shims sound easy but there are problems,
have to use an air hammer (pneumatic) to chisel/blast out old one cause aluminum and steel tends to corrode like a bitch
Do this thousands of times and fight with it because I don't like bending a "caster" twist on axle; risky in having chunks of steel flying out.


Doing rear tandem alignments on trucks I broke snap-on 1/2 drive ratchets WITHOUT using a pipe (tool sales accused me until one came in shop and see me break the fucker)
Doing the above daily resulted in making one strong mother fucker,
that when the 2nd set of operations was booked
I knew I was done;
So WITH blown/torn muscles in my shoulders made a video to remember where and what knowing I was never returning.

Had service mgr and other guy who's arms were size of my legs help when my back gave problems with shit like this
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rt4d7r4G0Lk[/youtube]
The parking brakes were locked and rear wheels chocked but the fucker still bounces around.
After operations therapist made me their mascot
Workers comp needed to know my abilities so one test was pulling
therapist connected to a treadmill and stood on it while I pulled him and machine across room @490lbs of pull,
I could feel this being about half of what was pulling just doing a simple toe set...

You're a beast

The shop had 2 5hp air compressors
I plumbed them so the 3 of them had one and I had the other.
I also cranked the pressure regulator to 185psi (12.75bar)
Need full power to feed elephant gun to loosen the u-bolts, usually I had to heat them with torch so they came loose without damaging threads. Nothing like a red hot spinning nut throwing molten lubricant onto face, arms and hands.

My goal at the time was to do what had never been done in the shops 40+ year existence:
go over $10,000 in monthly labor
I had made a bet with the general manager that if I do he will pay me 9% commission instead of 7% at 7,001 he had setup as initiative.
Needless to say he quickly denied the entire conversation... fucker!!!

Baaddwrench, you ask how to do a workout for a season ?

#10:  Re: Your Baaddwrench... Author: Baaddwrench, 

Workout LOL
Ye I'm supposed to do a variety of exercises to ensure scar tissue doesn't develop,
however I figured running around the shop and climbing a ladder or 2 should keep me fit?!
Some exercises would be beneficial for maintenance to prevent pain  
I like doing pushups, with my gf underneath me  

What do you girls do?
