I think the proposed block idea would work - move the mounts out a couple of inches and just use longer bolts. A buddy of mine is a machinist and he sometimes uses this super hard plastic stuff they can mill in the machines - seems like that would be perfect. Just drill a couple holes. When I...
So from the Arizona department, I had a friend fly in from Denver and we had a nice weekend out around the Agua Fria national monument. This is really my second trip out there looking for petroglyphs and this time we hit pay-dirt. Was muddy from recent rains (yes it does rain in Arizona) the...
Yep... lake powell is pretty cool. I've camped out on the north side of the lake, at hole-in-the-rock. Tried to get down to coyote gulch but got the route wrong... saw the arches though.

Did Bryce a few years on a big roadtrip. Trying to hit places I haven't been. Good thought though. Someone else said I should hit up Antelope Slot Canyon but it looks like a permit deal.
That's a thought. And for that matter I have a 12k winch on the jeep and a pulley. I wonder how you explain that, when the officer comes by and sees a guy winching a trailer onto a MV under a bridge.
Well, my time here in Arizona is drawing to a close and it's time to start thinking about heading home in early April. I bought the LMTV down here in Phoenix, so this will be my first long-distance (>500 mile) trip with it. The truck is solid though so I feel pretty confident about it all.
I...
That's a good idea about the block, to move it away from the wall... thanks. Agreed, I think they were very literal about the spec - the mounts clearly want the round hand-guards too, not rails - you'd think of ALL the things the military would have solved THIS problem by now...
So yes I did look in the TM for this - trying to use the small arms mount on my LMTV, with a flat-top AR and an ACOG, the optics are shoved into the back of the cab (the wooden plastic whatever interior panel on the back). The rifle can be made to fit if you shove a bit and use force, but it...
Good luck for DOT to prove date of manufacture... The "old" cans are grandfathered under CARB iirc. My scepters don't have dates on them. Canadian company, I doubt they particularly care, especially for the contract cans. How old are these cans? I don't recall, I bought them used...
Yeah back home in WA you have sit out two cycles on your motorcycle and then you can blow it. (I ride motorcycles). I don't know what the deal is down here in AZ. Either way I foresee explaining to cops sooner or later. Sigh. Time to print out more regulations to keep in the truck (along with...
Of all the things - my 1078 seems to have problems tripping traffic signal actuators like at left turns - at least around the Phoenix area. This seems counter-intuitive since the thing has a curb weight of 17 grand, but, it's happened to me a couple of times now at two different lights resulting...
