    Introducing the Soldier B HubHelper!!

    It is usually a one day job so you bring it over to the barn. Get Gimpy up and it will go quicker. We have a forklift for big pieces and a nice smooth floor. :-)

    How do you stop a m809 if the brakes fail?

    Since I was doing about 45Mph when I pushed on the brake pedal of my 813 and realized I had no brakes I'd say it was a pucker up moment. Even with a remote reservoir I had no "two pumps" and I know darm good and well the parking brake is just that, a parking brake, not an emergency brake. In...

    Chris, It's a nice drive right across Ohio on SR35 past our farm. ;-)

    R.I.P.--73M819--Ron Harris

    Swiss, I remember reading Ron's post the day after he wrote it. Read the first post after. Ron will finally get to tell Jim how much he meant to him.

    R.I.P.--73M819--Ron Harris

    Thanks to Doghead for his mad search skills at finding a meme I made just because of KGR back in 2013. Why yes it is the helmet that went through a CUCV windshield. Hence the reason for KGR calling me.

    R.I.P.--73M819--Ron Harris

    I was trying to remember when Ron flipped the burger with a wrecker. NOW I remember, it was at your cookout the year I had the honor to attend. Good times and good people and then there was KGR and a burger. LMAO

    R.I.P.--73M819--Ron Harris

    He wanted those 10-ton aviation jack stands I had at a rally. Brand new $150. He tried but I wouldn't budge so he said he'd take them. Then he wanted to make payments. I had to give him that for as hard as he worked on trying to get the price lower. :-) I also remember him complementing me...

    R.I.P.--73M819--Ron Harris

    I am saddened at the loss of someone I considered to be a friend. Ron was the first person to call me after my helmet altercation at Haspin a few years ago. He always loved harassing me about my helmet. While I'll miss him I know he was doing something he loved doing, driving green iron...

    Louisiana to Salton Sea, CA - Back - Xmas 2018

    Or it has decomposed. LMAO You've seen the road frontage I clean. Found everything but a fetus or human body so far. Pee bottles, diapers (full), underwear (full), **** DVD, car parts out the wazoo, bank records, deer, bunnies, possums, racoons and trash.

    Louisiana to Salton Sea, CA - Back - Xmas 2018

    Gee, I would have thought it would be crystal clear and smell like unicorn crap by now with all the environmentalists out there. I see nothing has changed since I was last there in '79. ;-)

    Soft top from scratch

    My Sister-in-law does upholstery and makes restaurant seats and boat covers. If I need something sewn with a commercial machine I'd farm it out. Last one I did was a window by hand. :-(

    The really good engine guys are still on here (not me). I can tell you how I painted mine. :-)

    Take care when selling your Deuce.

    My first truck I sold the guy sat in the passenger seat during the test drive and never got into the driver's seat until he drove away (after he bought it).

    There is an SS requirement that moderators that have ever lived within 150 miles of Haspin must attend. ;-)
