• Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Sweden - About 1988 and older

  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

The fun come when working on a project that requires SAE and metric like working on my 1995 Dodge RAM. Portions made in Canada are metric, portions made in USA are mostly SAE . I am happier when only one toolbox is required for a project.
 
someone once told me to never do up a 63 corvette, they apparently used up gm's supply of left over nuts and bolts and has many different sizes throughout the car with nothing making sense....
 
That's why a new socket set comes in metric and sae darn American cars had both.

Before the American made cars had only three metric threads, the generator nut, steering wheel nut and the front spindle nut.
