What are you building? / Re: Stairs to man cave and new room.
« on: October 12, 2016, 06:16:59 PM »
Looks a little better with sheetrock. I did have a little help pulling wires since getting in there is not fun for me. My youngest fits fine.

Had to re run all the wires including cat 5 (2 inch hole for future add ons.

One romex was actually not hooked up on either end but the other feed the whole room and front door. (yes I always use the screws on my plugs.) The coiled wire is not hooked but there for a fan or such run to the light fixture. I am thinking pod lights later on.

Built a new frame using a 4x4 with 6 inch special lags as the base. Braced into the old trusses with glue and screws, then sheared with 3/8 ply.

Well, onto other things.

Got these, both work great;

60hp at 275lb that thing should be a blast!

My KTM530 was a little lighter and it hauled my bulk around just fine.

If you have any concerns, just have it done from the inside. That will be as good as new.

With that said I have run those many times with no issues even in the long term. I of course did not have any remote air monitor though.

He is a wild card. That may be all that gets us by here.

I hear to many people who say they cannot vote for H, no matter what. The poles are twisted too, they even say they poll more D because there are more, really? I think if you add the independents in with the Rs it is a tossup.

I also think many who are for Trump are afraid to say it. Look at the poor guy in So Cal who had to be saved by the cops.

I fear if she gets in, she gets 3 justices and they say we may loose the senate to boot.

Great grand son??? Congrads for sure!!

Wow, even I feel old now.

You need to look at the cognito steering items. The HD tie rods are junk but the pitman arm and the cross link have great upgrades.

I would do the CP3 myself. When I did the fittings it was not that hard once you slide it all off the top. Sure I didn't do my CP3, but I was right there.

Try youtube. At least you get pictures.

I used the cheap HF pullers, they worked fine. Heat helps as the arm is going in the garbage anyway.

I worked at a trucking company about 3 decades ago. We used to get the unused cement from a local plant. We had long forms made up and just had to set the end cap depending on how much they sent. We hauled beer, they got beer, we got cement.

Just $120 huh? Mine is flattened on the bottom from sitting there. Think they would have used wood to the block base, it is so easy!!

I too like getting ALL the oil out, that sounds like a plan.

Could you get a feeler gauge between the rods?

Maybe send out the oil to see what it really is??

Went to a 120hp tune and make my own bio 20%. (5gal soy to into a 52 titan tank) and I run wally 2cycle.

Got 24 going down, 22 back with city driving mixed in. 3 accidents caused the 113 mile trip to take close to 4 hours.

Something is fishy there for sure. Ask your mech if the seal he pulled has a part# on it. See how custom it really is for $85 !!!!!

From what you say it is not his fault unless you pay him big bucks. Buying it though may have included a disclaimer, but you still have the forums and Paypal. Sure you still a have a few contacts too.

So a motor you spent mucho $$$ on has a bad rear seal that won't be warrantied because of an oil pan install?

Is he putting an over the counter seal on, vs the "custom" that you were told it has?

I have the cognito UCA. More travel, greasable poly bushings with bolt in ball joints. The latter is important since they wear fast with or setups.

This is the first set to do me wrong, these have have 50,000 miles on them Don. No toyo MT is going to do that ever.  And this is probably my shortest tread tire.  Transmission has been helping the tire spin a little better

Copy that!

I get about half that mileage on the MT's

But in my case, I think I really need to stay with an aggressive MT

You should have seen my truck Friday, crawling out of my hide. Tires rolled up mud, sticks, weeds, grass into some adobe mixture that changed them from 35's to something around a 37" I think. When I finally got to the road and started to accelerate, the clods of mud I sent flying went everywhere.

Yea, I need to stay mud tire...

But no pics or updates as SD rots away,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

That would make sense with the plugs back there. They look half covered by the bell and with that 12 in puddle it is not small.
