  1. Anyone shoot clay's? (Trap, Skeet, etc.) I went a couple times before it got cold... and now I am hooked, so I am looking to get a good starter gun . I have shot both an over-under (dont know what brand), and a good old Remington 870. Do I go with the cheep off-brand over-under to practice with? The trusty 870? Or does someone have a good recommendation?
  2. I checked the codes... and the first one I got was that the AC was still on. So I disconnected the battery to clear the codes, started the truck up, and everything works perfect!? The car shifts better then it did when I first picked it up. Why is this happening?
  3. If this is what Ford calls "limp" mode, they are doing it wrong lol. It feels like its going to jerk the whole transmission apart. I will see if I can get the codes tonight...as long as this rain holds off. So if the codes turn out to actually be for the transfer case, any recommendations on a shop nearish to downtown?
  4. I have a 1995 Ford F250 4x4 with the 351w in it. I was driving home last night and it started to shift really hard from first to second. I looked down and noticed on the the end of the drive selector, the overdrive light was blinking "off". I have looked around on some Ford forums to see if I could identify the problem, and it seems to be a transfer case issue, a transmission sensor issue, a brake light issue, or even a problem with the engine itself. Is it true the only way to know for sure is to have a shop read the codes that the transmission is throwing? does anyone know a good transmission shop near downtown?
  5. My brother just got back from deployment a week or so ago and is trying to get his car started. Unfortunately, since he is in Florida and I am in Cbus, the only way I can help him is if he sends me videos. Can anyone help me decipher what is making the noise in this video? Car is a 91 Toyota MR2 n/a 5speed. Thanks Video: http://youtu.be/3oMpM5LrIC4
  6. I did the whole start the car and warm it up thing (I was previously driving it, so it was at temp)and turned the A/C on full blast. The outside temp was easily 85+ so I was expecting a higher psi, but to have the gauge go off the chart was unexpected. I looked around for another port yesterday but gave up when everything on the damn car burned me lol Thanks for the replies guys. I am hoping its not over charged already and I just found the HP port. Also, its definitely not leaking, I don't think it could not hold that much pressure if it was. I am going to pull some of the engine plastic shit off tonight and see if I can find another port.
  7. So I bought one of those A/C recharge cans from auto-zone to give it a try. When I put the gauge on the only input valve I could find, it read that was over 80psi. I looked all over for another input valve but couldn't find one. So do VW's just use insanely high A/C line pressure? Was I somehow connected to the high pressure side? Am I wasting my time trying to recharge my A/C? Thanks guys, just a little confused.
  8. When to school at UC. There is tuns of stuff to do in the Cincinnati Metro area. The Cincinnati Museum Center is amazing, Kings Island is a good time (I dont want to hear it from the haters, Ceder Point is fun too lol), there is the Civic Garden Center, and almost every weekend there is some sort of festival (check out cincinnatiusa.com). If you want food I would check out the new Moerlein Lager House on the ohio side of the levee, or head over to newport across the river in KY and eat/drink at the Hofbrauhaus. I can go on for days if you want lol. PM me if you have any questions.
  9. Bump for Yenner. Cool guy, and a great seller. He will tell you anything you need to know about this car! Not hiding anything.

    First I apologize for my ignorance lol, but these wheels are 5x120mm (4.75in) correct? how far off would they be from fitting a 5x115mm (4.5in) lug pattern? I love Corvette wheels, but I am kinda new to the domestic side of things
  15. I really like it, but I drive 30 miles a day for work. any idea on the gas mileage on this thing? I know, I know, "terrible", but for real, any idea?

    Long shot here, but the fraternity Pi Kappa Alpha (http://www.pikes.org , http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi_Kappa_Alpha) does stuff with old fire trucks I think. At least the chapter at UC had one parked out in front of their house. You could always try contacting their nationals and seeing if someone is interested.
  17. Yeah, I just checked the BMV class, its backed up till July 7th lol. Plenty of time to find a nice little training bike.
  18. 350 bucks! That seems really expensive? Or is this normal?
  19. Just thinking about learning how to ride. Anyone have an opinion on where to take a class?
  20. hey, thanks guys. Looks like I am going to have to check out Kemba (not in the military).
  21. So my bank is stupid. Lost my credit card, took them a month to get me a new one. The branch was even rude to me when I went in to ask if there was a problem after 2 weeks of waiting for the card to come in the mail. Anyways, I hear credit unions are are place to be, but I don't know much about them. Anyone have any suggestions on where to go?
  22. @Paul, I guess I can't see your pic yet lol
  23. Originally it was this color: http://jordansportsledger.com/Images%205/ford%20ranger.JPG Then I decided to put a little paint on it: And in college I liked to do a little redneck hot tubing:
  24. Oh I would post a pic of my truck, but who wants to see a 1990 ranger lol
