  1. Thanks, its nice to learn the history of my truck.
  2. I've looked every where and no one has it. Seems like it should be a pretty common thing. Jegs, napa, and autozone dont have it. This say it fits a 2 1/8 but its wrong. http://www.autozone.com/autozone/accessories/Maremont-13-32-in-dia-bolt-hole-and-2-11-16-in-dia-center-hole-flange-with-3-3-4-in-between-bolt-hole-centers/_/N-25vz?counter=7&itemIdentifier=712667_0_0_ Anyone know where I can get one or have a suggestion on how I should fix my exhaust? Its broken where it connects between the cat and muffler on a ford ranger.
  3. The ac works about 75% of the time. I cant figure it out, just depends on the day.
  4. I'm gonna stay here like 2 more weeks. If I can't find a job I'm going back to the farm in Oak Hill, Florida that I've worked at before. Probably gonna go to the everglades and keys first and take a1a back north. When I was in cali I took 101 to 1 when I went from Redwoods National Park to San Francisco. Pretty amazing drive. Another good drive was going through the Cascades on Route 2 in Washington. They said the water in Crater Lake is the cleanest because only rain and snow feed it.
  5. I need to go on another trip sometime to see Craters of the Moon in Idaho, Zion and the Canyonlands in Utah and I wouldnt mind going back to all the places I already went. I somehow managed to spend around 3k mostly on gas and beer.
  6. That picture is from Crater Lake National Park in Oregon. It took me like 3 months to make it from Ohio to Seattle. Took like a week to go from Seattle to San Francisco and like 1.5 weeks to go from San Francisco to Florida. I only stayed in 1 hotel in Vancouver with friends the whole trip (they wouldnt sleep in the car). I tried to plan stuff that was within a 10 hour drive or so. If I wasnt camping then I slept in my car which only ended up being like 3 nights of the whole trip. The farms I stayed at were all wwoof farms (http://www.wwoofusa.org/). They give food and a place to stay in exchange for working there. Its a cheap way to travel and its nice staying with locals. I think I spent around 3k and now I'm broke. Someone buy my car. Yes Im gonna be at the christmas party! I was pretty disgusted that someone would tag the troll.
  7. Next idea is to buy a sailboat in a few years, spend a few years fixing it up, then sail around the Caribbean for a winter. Who knows if it will actually happen. I need to get a job first. Its pretty hard to meet girls when you are hiking in the woods. I might have met a girl or two while I was working on different farms.
  8. The highlight was climbing up Mt St Helens with my friend. Amazing experience. 2nd was being in San Francisco with another friend. I have like 20 things tied for 3rd place.
  9. Arches National Park http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/PA161338.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/PA161340.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/PA161350.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/PA161361.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/PA161365.jpg Great Sand Dune National Park http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/PA171372.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/PA171381.jpg After all that I was tired of traveling so I drove fast to Florida where I worked on a farm for a month.

  12. Funniest thing I did was climb Mt St Helens. Took a little over 5 hours. 4500ft up. http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P9240957.jpg gangster, it was really cold up there http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P9240970.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P9240978.jpg Climbed to within 1000ft of the top of Mt Hood the next day. http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P9250981.jpg Silver Falls State Park in Oregon http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/PA011002.jpg Crater Lake National Park http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/PA011016Stitch.jpg jumping in the cleanest water in the world http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/PA011021.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/PA011027Stitch.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/PA021035.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/PA021055.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/PA021056.jpg
  13.

  14. Glacier National Park, my favorite. Hiked 40 miles in 2.5 days. http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7310711Stitch.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7300690Stitch.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7290656Stitch.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7290662.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7300689.jpg Favorite pic from the trip: http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7300698Stitch-1.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7310704Stitch.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7310708.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7310727.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7310728Stitch.jpg Sailing with the guy that owned the farm in Idaho I stayed at for awhile. http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P8010742.jpg
  15. Yellowstone. I thought it was overrated and probably wouldnt go back. I prefer to hike up a mountain. http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7170519.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7170510Stitch.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7170459.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7180555.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7170537Stitch.jpg Only saw two bears on the trip, both at yellowstone by the side of the road holding up traffic. http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7180612.jpg The best part about yellowstone is the boiling river. http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7190635.jpg
  16. Grand Tetons http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7160428Stitch.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7160418-1.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7160408Stitch.jpg
  17. Stayed with a friend in Boulder, Colorado. Went on a hike between two 14ers, about 10 miles, Mt Evans and Mt Bierstadt. Pretty tough hike since it was my first one at elevation in a long time. http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7100330.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7100343.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P7100379.jpg
  18. I wanted to take some time off after graduating from school and I ended up driving across the country for 5.5 months. My route: http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/route.jpg I stopped at national parks, friends places, and farms on the way. Badlands was the first national park I went to. Pretty small park with a ton of buffalo. Camped there 2 nights and wandered around the fields for a day. http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P6290320.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/trip/P6280274.jpg
  19. The road up Mount Evans is paved. Heres a picture I took near the top. http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b338/wheezytoo/P7100330.jpg http://www.mountevans.com/
  20. Theres one road that goes almost to 14k on Mount Evans in Colorado. I was there a couple months ago, Ill have to post some pictures later.
  21. I went here http://www.jumptoday.com/index.html through osu. Got like 1/2 a credit and it was $300 or so. I did the solo but 2 people were holding on to both sides of me till I pulled the chute. To make you feel more comfortable some experienced guy went into a tree and got pretty messed up while I was waiting to go. Also a few months (or weeks, cant remember) some person doing tandem died at the same place. I believe the straps that connect the 2 people broke.
  22. I think its possible. I welded a leaf spring that broke in half and it never broke again. This was a s10 leaf spring being used on a utility trailer. It wasnt the main spring that attached to the vehicle though, could make a difference.
  23. finally a site that works, even though its low quality. I can't believe theres no legit site streaming it in hd.
