    Active wheeling or no rig/ working on a project?

    I've got a decent set up TJ with way to much money in built jeep axles and drivetrain on 35's that I take out whenever I can but I've been three times so far this year. I've also got a high pinion 60 and a 14 bolt sitting in the corner of the shop waiting for a home, my jeep is still to nice...

    Ford Highboy info and value??

    It's most likely a 360 not a 390 unless someone swapped it they never put a 390 in a highboy stock, all FE blocks magically become 390's when for sale. The front is most likely a closed knuckle 44, the rear is a 60. Fronts are worth anything unless someone needs parts for an old truck as a lot...

    Machinist work? Good for future?

    I've been into machining since I was 15, I'll be 27 this year. Personally it pays decent but I'd like to get more like everyone, I'm making $17 hourly on second shift running a mix of cnc and conventional mills. Been with this company 4 years total but only back for 2 since I was laid off in...

    Who is APeters

    He did run the trailworthy hero case, one of the crewmembers reported on facebook it was the only thing to perform flawlessly in the car the entire time they were in the race. I believe a transmission led to a DNF for them

    John Sumner's BIG MEATS RUN

    Disney is a very small town, the cabins alot of folks stayed at shutdown last year and I don't know they ever re opened. The camping is pretty hard to come by and reservations are already booked up for the state parks you can reserve at. Vinita like mentioned is not to far of a drive and Langley...

    ultimate rzr yard sale

    You can get ahold of Russ Hogan who runs the campground and he will come tow you back in for a fee. I am not sure how much it costs honestly, a friend had to get his yj towed back with it after ripping two link mounts off of the front and he gave Russ $100 for doing it. Pretty cheap really for...

    Here is the only other picture I could find of it right now and I stole it from google. It is a ranger cab on a cut down duece and half chassis with a 460 4 speed in it. Believe they are 53 inch michelin's all the way around and a 30k lb pto winch on the back along with the...

    Enclosed trailer fab for camping

    If you just get a regular enclosed they are pretty hard to keep hot/cold without lots of insulation. Used a good friends 28 footer with a brand new 220 roof top ac unit ( can't tell you btu on it) and during the summer days it just can't keep it cool but at night time you will freeze in it...

    ultimate rzr yard sale

    Axles say $400 a piece rough estimate, rear radius rods $300 or so, shocks probably close to $1k for brand new. I would say that you could do it for $1500 IF you got deals on used parts closer to $2k maybe $2500 brand new parts.

    I started into it after school my sophmore year of high school for $7.00 an hour and just very basic lathe use at an engine shop but worked up and now 10 years later I'm making $50k+ a year and have good benefits to match. Button pushers can be replaced with any monkey walking off the street and...

    5.3vs 383, What has more potential?

    The motor is a gm crate 383 that is sitting on the stand, it had 3,000 miles on it then started rattling so it was replaced and we picked it up cheap. Tore it down and the only thing we could find wrong through the entire motor was a loose rocker arm from a bad poly nut, it has new rings and...

    5.3vs 383, What has more potential?

    The bars are all measured out in the exact same spot on both sides but the difference in the upper and lower bars kind of give them a twisted look, the one bar where it leans is what really ruins the look for me. I think we will just stick to the 383 for now, its always a possibility to swap to...

    Sounds like everyone else hates them as much as I do, everything is bent or radiused but those, Im gonna give it another shot this weekend since I've had more time on the notcher and see if we can figure out how to put radiused pieces in like planned. Everything is .120 wall 1 3/4 bent on a jd32...
