48 days.

1600 duning miles.

Wadded my car up on the last trip.

Getting new arms made so I can make Idaho at the end of May!!!!

Pics?

Didn’t the 6.7 diesels have a dry start issue where it would take somewhere around 9 seconds to lubricate the top end of the motor after an oil change and after sitting for a while too?  Anyone have any issues relating to that?

Watch out for people trying to scam with Timeshares.  Just was reading about how this is a big new thing with the Cartels scamming the elderly. Looks like they are taking a note from the Nigerian scammers. 

AZ Auto image in chandler has been my paint guy for a while. He’s a fellow duner but more so in drag racing now. Ask for Brandon. 

They make AC / DC mini splits and with about 6 to 8 solar panels you can have it run all day during the day light hours. I’ve been planning a setup for a bit but haven’t pulled the trigger yet. Cool part is it can run on solar during the day and regular 110 at night if you want. Lots of options out there. 

Pretty sure that was used in the original Flinstones movie. 

I’d think any drag racing roll bar door clamps would work to build them?  

maybe something like below.

Sold!

Camped in low teens. The draw straw to fresh water froze as it just sits below the tanks. But not a big deal. The shitter drops straight down so didn’t need water and had bottled water to drink. But we sure burned through a lot of propane. Toy haulers are just not insulated well. 

When I see people littering I’d usually pick it up and throw it back in their vehicle along with a bunch of other trash too. They get the point real quick that it’s not so nice when all that trash is back in their own property. 

Am I missing something. This just shows how the paddles are trimmed / hot knifed. Would love to see the process of how the actual entire tire is made. Assuming it’s similar to regular tires??

Flat decking one side of the trailer with steel. 

Sale in process. Will mark sold after final sale. 

I have a pair of used extreme paddles. 35” and they are number 2 cut. Both hold air with no tubes but one paddle I did have to put a small tire plug in. 
asking $300 for the set. 

Thought this comparison of old arms vs new was interesting. 
 

Have a WWLE3505 pulling with 06 cummins megacab SRW. Came from a WW bumper pull and would never go back. 5th wheel pulls straight as an arrow and also on 16’s.  You should be fine with shortbed. I’m also running a B&W and no complaints.  My trailer axles are flipped and flat decked one side so I don’t have to change tires or strap the front end. Also put a winch in the steps and solar. Great rig so far and have camped all over from glamis to snow and lugged it down many forest roads.

My buddy is selling his 4 seat Foddrill.

Awesome car.  Great geometry.

He hasn't used it in 7 years.

Turbo Nissan motor, one of the hi performance motors from Japan.

He is in Phoenix.

Is this car mostly all black with some purple by chance?

I know some people who use mosquito dunks and purposely put out containers of water with those floating in it. Mosquitos will lay their eggs and they won’t hatch. More of population control and eventually wipes them out. For me in AZ i just wear long socks and shoes and pants if I’m working in the garage. I’d rather be a little hot than get bit

Looking for a single 12” stroke king 2.5 coilover shock with remote reservoir. 

Pm me if you have one for sale. 

Animals will be fined next.
