I havent lived in an apartment since i was a kid. We rented a house or two for the past 10 yrs or so and for that time ive owned my 97 tj. ive done everything myself from clutch jobs to LA upgrades to whatever...
Now my gf and i have moved into a "luxury" apartment. dont get me wrong, its very VERY nice. when your in the apt it seems like a nice sized house. the problem is, this place is SO damn quiet!.. a normal person would enjoy that. rules here say that you cant even change your freaking oil. no maintenance at all!.. well screw that!...
walk out my door, turn right, walk about 75ft and i have a detached garage. when i moved in i was paranoid that my jeep wouldnt even fit in the frucker!... i saw an empy garage unit and it was a handicaped one.. its about 50 percent bigger than normal. i said," i want that one." OK... cool
SO my motorcycle fits in it, my jeep, my tools, and a frig.. nicely..
So far i have done some brake job work, oil changes, stuff like that. what i do is, i close the door on me and just light the garage up. sucks cuz it can get REAL hot in there and or i need to use my respirator for dust and stuff.
well as some of you know, im building a 4.6 stroker.. funny thing is is that im doing it here... in the garage. you wanna talk about creeping around! I use my air compressor for the port/polish job. i was using my york on the jeep. i had to park the jeep out of the garage(fire hazard) close the garage door, and hope 1.) that i wasnt "to" loud, 2.) that some hommie didnt run up and decide to take a jeep to azusa canyon. ive bought a craftsman 30 gallon upright since.
im getting it done actually but its gonna be a McGyver run when i get to pull the motor and swap in the other. im not sure my cherry picker will clear the ceiling..
why am i ranting...? ... It sucks to not be able to work in the open air, on your driveway or with the garage door open even. i have maintenance guys driving by me in their stupid golfcarts doing this and that and im scared i may get reported... Fruck it, if i do i guess i can just get a house!..
Apartment life SUCKS!
