It looks like his small shed is very close to the property line. In AZ. where I live, his shed would have to be 7' from the line. I would call planning and zoning, he may have to move it back a few feet.

I have repaired many headliners on the 1980's GM cars. Gluing the old liner doesn't work because the old foam has deteriorated. I don't know if they are the same on today's cars, but here's how to do the 1980's style. Buy some headliner material from an upholstery shop. This material has the foam made into it & stretches very well. Remove headliner & peel off old material. Scrape off foam with razor blade scraper or use a grinder with a flexible disc without the hard backing pad. Spray 1/2 of the headliner shell & 1/2 of material with upholstery glue. Let the glue get tacky. Lay the material down, starting from the center & working out to the edge. Do the other half the same way. Trim material about 1" larger than the shell. Fold material over the edges & glue on the back side. Replace headliner. The material and glue are not very expensive and will take the novice about 2 hours. We used to charge $100. for 1 hours work and the the customers gladly paid.

It is best if you put a cutting edge on when the bucket is new. If you install a cutting edge when the bucket is worn, it will not fit tight to the bucket. The bolts can pop from dirt getting in between the bucket and blade. The dirt acts like hydaulic fluid and separates the two pieces.

I've seen a lot of posts regarding the proper method used to check the air pressure in liquid filled tires. I wanted see for myself if there was a variation in air pressure. <br>
I started with 15-19.5 R4 tires filled just above valve stem with water/anti freeze mixture.(valve stem should be covered to prevent corrosion).<br>
#1. valve stem up & tire raised off ground - 12 psi<br>
#2. valve stem down & tire raised off ground - 12 psi<br>
#3. valve stem up & tire resting on ground - 12 psi<br>
#4. valve stem down & tire resting on ground - 13 psi<br>
I then put valve stem at top and let out liquid until only air came out of valve stem. I repeated steps #1-#4 got the same results. <br>
I hope this test will clear up some confusion regarding the proper method used to check air pressure in liquid filled tires.<br>
