    Lower clearance with tire pressure? M35A2

    Just an idea, but you look like you have a good amount of slope at the front of that shed. Have you considered a quick rental of a 75lb demo hammer and a few bags of quickcrete? You might drop that "floor" a couple of inches for a very small cost and not lose drainage. (You only need it lowered...

    Lower clearance with tire pressure? M35A2

    You might not want to brag about violating your insurance company's contract on an open forum... Just a thought.

    Deuce winch kit price??

    In what application would constant duty be required? Although I agree, the hydraulic option is the most rational, and easy/cheep enough given a power steering upgrade. I'm still on the fence myself. The options would seem to be: A: Factory $1500 for a used unit +$?XXX for seals and parts to...

    Deuce winch kit price??

    Just thinking rationally, a used stock winch should be priced at 50%-75% of the price of a new winch from a major manufacturer rated for a similar pull... if anyone aside from a concourse purist is expected to want it anyway.

    Opinions on tires

    The good news is, no matter what you want, the price is dropping like a stone. One unnamed auction site has a truckload for sale for $100/ea. (Mexican border)

    Goodyears seem to be the best for road use from what I have read.

    Newbie GL question about firearms

    Two ideas... A: If you have a chase car, leave it in the chase car off-base, pick-up and get it back on the outside. B: Most bases have more pawnshops than guardposts around them... find a pawnshop and pay the owner $5-$20 to rent some space in his safe for your sidearm and pick it up when...

    Donaldson M070028 The guys in the beginning of the thread gave the numbers data as to how much the dB was reduced, but this is a pretty good audio of before and after to help put it into perspective.

    Muffler installation with db comparison

    After.... http://youtu.be/i2D_f5yiPR4 Honestly, I think the sheet metal rattles louder than the exhaust, but the sound inside the cab was dramatically reduced. I'm just wondering If I'll get sick of the pipe sitting that high and cut some off. I hope this helps folks on the fence. The...

    Muffler installation with db comparison

    Ok... one MONTH to get the job done. (Seriously, it took 1/2 an hour and I was dawdling.) I have video before and after with audio. I'm going to upload once I figure out which camera caught the best audio. As you will see, I didn't shorten the pipe after I cut it. The extra 18"-20" doesn't...
