    Rausch Creek 2009

    Yeah your right, Nov. might be too much with the weather for some. Well we got: Oct. 15,16,17,18 or Oct. 22,23,24,25 Hmmmmmm........:| I vote for the latter option if that counts for anything.

    Rausch Creek 2009

    Hi, Sorry for the delay. I asked Lynn from RC the questions you guys raised. Her response: "October is the busiest month of the entire year so it's hard to pick any weekend that's going to be less crowded. We will have more camping space opened up by the time your event rolls around...

    Rausch Creek 2009

    Those are all great ideas. Thanks OLDCHEV for bringing this up. That means you're still really excited about it:-D "I wonder if we could work out a Thursday PM arrival and hit the trail early Friday?" -Maddawg had this idea last year and maybe we should implement it for 09', although it...

    M818 bobbed truck rear steering axle question

    -Axle ratings are always measured by the capacity of the axle housing or assembly. Springs are a variable. I would guess that a 5ton rockwell rear has nom. rating of 38-40K -A front 5ton Rockwell would be less due to steering components like the kingpins and spindles etc. I would guess...

    M813 re-power underway!

    Yeah I'm trying to avoid a civi looking cowl induction scoop although I'm sure what I fabricate will look like a wart or a big juicy pimple. *splat*:-P

    M813 re-power underway!

    The body lift idea is a great concept but think of all the trouble involved: -Radiator/Cab/Fender supports -Clutch, Brake Actuation -Steering Components Would the bed be raised as well? What would it look like with a huge 6" gap between the battery tray, toolbox/running boards? Thats a...

    Straight pipe on a NHC-250

    A friend of mine in my ATHS club has a 49' Mack LJT with a stock NH-220 (743ci) routed to twin stacks w/no muffs. Ditto to what DaveP described: It barks!! I think it sounds great and it isn't that loud. At idle it burbles and is pretty quite. I would say go for it! (the 819 w/400...

    M819 RECEIVES NTC400!!

    Agree 100% Chris. When operating a 939 you only have to use the weight of your foot to gently squeeze the pedal. If you use your leg muscles at all, you'll go through the windshield.:razz:
