Bump for a handy set of tools. I use them all the time and they fit both my Troy built and craftsman trimmers.

Looks great, it's cool to see all of your projects come together.

Thanks all. I'll update again as soon as we get her results.

Does anyone know of any still operating parking lot test sites? I'm still not excited about going into a doctor's office, and hoping for a simple summer bug/cold.

Have you lost your sense of taste too?

 

Good luck.

So..... We've been pretty careful about Covid. I've been off work since April 3, and the wife has worked from home when possible, but still has to go into nursing homes a couple times a week.

We've done nothing socially aside from a few socially distant outdoor visits with family, who are also cautious. We wear masks everywhere.

We've taken antibody tests and both were negative, she's been tested at work 3 times previously, all negative.

3ish days ago we both started feeling very lethargic and symptoms reminisce of a sinus infection. It hasn't gone away, and today I can't smell anything at all. (I'm talking bath and body candle to the face with zero smell). Consistent Sinus headache. It could be allergies, it could be a sinus infection or cold, or it could be Covid.

The wife was tested at one of her buildings on Friday and we haven't gone anywhere since. If we're positive, that should show.

She should have results by Tomorrow ( Monday).

What a joke right, three days for results from National guard testing?

I'll keep CR posted.

I wonder if those vacationers weren't even hurt and they just went to the hospital because the media.

What would you guys say is an appropriate amount to keep on hand if you don't shoot often? (Obviously varies by person)

I think I have like 750 rounds of 9mm, 500ish 22, maybe 50 12-20 gauge shells, and random 30-30, 227 etc....

I know some of you have thousands

I was hoping you'd swing by and check.

Sounds like you should have told him to register for CR, lol

Second for Duff, I've never worked with him personally, but I used to do a lot of HVAC work and he has always given people good advice on here.

North end wrench and Lucore both get good reviews on CR.

I've heard good things about Evans but never used them. I did work with the owners brother who is an engineer, he made him sound like a real car enthusiast who cared about the customers and hobby.

Basically, I got nothing, lol.

Actually, I have been lucky in the past using a previous registration to prove the weight, i think it just depends on the mood of the person working. If your Mom has that registration it might save a trip to the scales.

Maybe it'll have it on there.

Yep, weigh it at a Flying J, or Pilot, and take the slip to get your plate.

It looks like maybe there are no titles for a trailer weighing less than 4,000 lbs? So I just need to prove trailer weight to get a registration?

Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Long story short, My father had a 2006 16ft flat bed trailer, he passed away in 2017. Mom isn't sure what she has as far as title/registration etc....

I want to put the trailer to use, what do I need to get it legal? Do all simple trailers have transferable titles, or do I just get registration with the serial number?

Trailer is similar to this, 16x8ish:

Fast forward 3 months, who knew they'd have so much time at home to ride this thing.

I finally modified the spare battery compartment to hold the larger battery pack from eBay. The original pack is 24v 7ah, the new pack is 24v 22ah. I wired them in parallel, so hopefully this will greatly extend the range.

Test run went fine, and now we're testing the charging. So far, no fires.

Ripped off the truck's plate today.

Looks great. I gave my black truck a half ass wipe down with some best of show today. I still can't believe how easy it is to get a great shine after over a year, it's like it was done last week.

I bought a really nice T100 last year and rebuilt all of the suspension and steering and did timing belt/ water pump/oil pump. We started going off roading and camping this spring on the easier trails and have worked our way up to some pretty rough ones lately. We have a blast and get to see some amazing places. Most of the mountains are public land with forestry roads everywhere. I’m planning on doing a rear locker soon because I think I’m going to need it.

Awesome! Truck is looking great. I can only imagine the feeling of seeing it move under it's own power.

We should have started a business selling front vanity plates!

Nothing about an aircooled rail buggy screams SPEED to me. :-P

 

 

 

They are cool'ish I guess. We saw quite a few up at Silver Lake a few years ago. They even rent little homemade ones with small engine, engines in them. They were turds.

I want an LS powered long travel lol.

Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Lol. Has to move with that 4 cyl on it!

Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

For sure. All those things are similar in nature. I just have to adjust my way of thinking a little.. My wife is ALL about the idea of dumping the BRZ which she hates and getting a SxS. She is the responsible one so there must be something to it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think it just depends on the type off-roading you want to do. I like speed so Im not sure something like this would fit the bill. I think I could buy a lesser version SxS and do similar things to a small vehicle like this if thats what I wanted. But your right the street ability is nice. I just think once you ride something that has 15-20" of suspension travel its hard to come down from that to a stock vehicle type suspension.

I bought a 1990 geo tracker for this exact reason. This is so much fun off road, and its way cheaper than a SxS. I paid $1900 for mine, and can be found in decent shape for that price. I got a winch and changed all the fluids and have been having a blast with it on most weekends. Street legal is nice too, no need to trailer it around.
