    MV offroad use on Pine Barrens?

    The club I used to belong to was doing cleanups 20+ years ago. It does not matter because what the hikers and horse peopple see are the azzholes tearing the place up. Every kid that has a 4X4 has to show he can go further than the other guy. We used to have a couple of spots that we played in...

    MV offroad use on Pine Barrens?

    I can tell you that "QQ" tags, or antique tags, are not allowed off road. According to law they can only be used for going to or from a sanctioned car show. Most of the time this is not enforced on the street but it is in the woods. There are no sanctioned shows in the woods so they have every...

    Is this a good buy?

    It is not I that is confused. I have 50 plus years of experience under my belt. Grew up on a farm so therefor learned heavy equipment and trucks at a very young age. Been doing it ever since. The reason this thread moved to being about you is because of the inconsistencies of your statements...

    Kerosene cut / thin ratios?

    isn't there a lubricity issue or does that not pertain to the multifuel? Kerosene is more of a solvent than it is an oil. Rick

    Is this a good buy?

    A 5500 lb. trailer is RATED for carrying 5500 lbs.. What you are describing is a 9 ton trailer so my observations stand for the description given. And you can quite easily have a 20,000 lb. gooseneck trailer. I sold one last year. You sir need some education in your own professed field of...

    Is this a good buy?

    5500 lb. trailer and two skidsteers? You must have some real small skidsteers or you overload the **** out of the trailer. That would be a huge fine for the owner of the company.:roll: A 5500 lb. trailer is going to be a ball mount or a gooseneck. I am not trying to be an azz but do you really...

    Is this a good buy?

    Post 36 on your other thread someone pointed out a better truck that was correct, right color and closer but you wanted this one because it was red. Now you are going to cut and paste and repaint a truck that you paid too much for? You keep asking if it will pull a heavy load and everyone here...

    M43 Resurrection

    I could spend hours just wandering your property looking at stuff all over.:roll::grin: Rick BTW, Check the oil pan behind the starter and make sure it is not rusting out. Go with the later model starter, spins easier and does not draw as much power. Oh yea, it is a LOT lighter to push up there.

    drilling brake drums

    Just remember that you are compressing a rotor and spreading a drum. Put a hole in the wrong place and when you hit the brakes hard the drum will come apart. Rick

    M1009 Driving Crooked

    Once it is all together it is impossible to see the center pin. There is really nothing to see anyway, a straight bolt through the springs. Have someone follow you again but have two people in that vehicle. Do it on a two or better, three lane highway. While they are following you should be in...

    Engine & transmission swap questions

    I have been a diesel mehanic for many years, I am not going to step into the middle of this debate but I can assure you that you are not going to get 30 MPG. Your comment about rolling smoke and getting good mileage doing it is a contradiction. You and I both know that when you are rolling smoke...

    M1009 Driving Crooked

    You say your cost was 2.00 because you sell hardware? We need to talk!!!!! U-bolts are a lot more that that wholesale and center pins are about 8.00 each wholesale. Can you set me up with a set at that price? We are talking automotive hardware correct? The center pins are grade 8 with a round...
