    Wasn't there a spare tire floating around in the back Pete? I think Rayzer would have been good enough to put it on for you.[thumbzup]

    Florida MV Insurance and RV Status

    If someone has a complete dead alternator they want to donate, I'll take it apart and source the parts. I used to work for a after market supplier and know all about the Prestolite/Leece Neville 24V alternators. I can get the parts if they are available. Same offer for starters.

    Towbar Incident Report

    Having done a lot of destructive testing on large bolts, pins, and other hardware I would say it's more likely that the saftly pin failed and allowed the 1 inch pin to come out. The Towbar manual that was posted (4910_496_10_towbar) did not mention safety chains. What we have learned here...

    Soft Top Field Expedient Emergency Repair???

    Duct tape fixes everything. With that said; if I could get a new top for a reasonable price that wasn't to far out of my way, I would do it.

    Top 10 Low Pass Fly-By's

    Several years ago, a buddy of mine was working for a company that operated C-130s in New Zealand. The company was having a party at one of the big wheels place which was a plantation on the coast. My buddy was first officer and the way he tells the story is they were late getting back from a...

    top speed and mpg for M818?

    You said that right Adam. I have no doubt that if I hadn't had my seatbelt on, I would have been launched through the roof more than once on my way home from SC. :confused:
