When Dodge guys laugh at you for being disloyal to your brand... There are "dodge guys" . . . odd. Mopar (Dodge, Chrysler, Plymouth, Jeep) people are the MOST fanatically loyal on the planet... fixed :P LOL! I'm not claiming it until I see what happens when Chrysler, finally free of Daiml...

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. . . That's a two way street. Yep. It is obvious that is their tactic. The OHV community in the area is acting in kind. I'm sure there are no illusions and no love lost. . .or gained. The biggest losers in this.... Our public lands, and the people. No...

It's ok to be cooperative if they want to help doing something good. But never be fooled into believing ANY "green" group is your friend, or will EVER be for anything that is good, or that isn't about closing things down and shooing us all off ALL the public lands. They are not our friends...

I'd like to get the propane stuff, but I'm a bit short of dollars. Will you still have it in 2-3 weeks? ( not asking you to hold it for me, sell it if someone wants to buy) I might have it sooner, but that's probably the best I can do.

Drive Shaft splines - replacement

Is there anyone in Tri cities who does a good job of replacing the splines on a drive shaft? That doesn't charge absurd amounts? The front splines on my truck are seriously in need of replacement, and the guy in town here took 3 tries to get the last one he did for me to "tolerable", still...

Re: I did it, now what (pic added)

I can't for the world imagine why someone would go through the pains to adapt a chevy motor in front of it. All that work to get a motor that's inferior? I can agree with you on the first part that it is silly to go through the trouble of adapting that trans to a gm engine but if any of that setup ...

Basically, just look for a common brand. Normally, you can get hayden and flex-a-lite for reasonable prices. Make sure you get a thermal clutch. It will provide good cooling at low engine speed when you need it.

mind posting your year, etc, and I can find you a decent deal on one.

Yes you are suppose to have flags on your vehicle is you leave the parking areas. It is a nice bumpy road into Juniper isn't it? It's not all that bad. When's a group going over again?

Finally saw Juniper Dunes

So, I had to make this trip over to harbor freight and so yesterday, on the way back, we made the side trip to Juniper Dunes. Quite the interesting place. I want to go back and explore the place a bit, and take a camera, too.

Do you need a flag on a vehicle to run around out there?

Hey Have you thought about running Megasquirt instead of megajolt? Back when I built my VW we used MS to run 2 coils and its already setup for ford edis if you want it to be. DIYautotune.com has them cheap. MS1 vs 2.2 is what Id recommend for this and thats only like $252. Plus the community is HUG...

The majority of my 'pane experience comes from working on hop trucks that were factory built for it. F 600 & F 700's with either 372's or 428's and GMC C 60's with 366's & 427 tall decks. They were all ex schwan trucks so who knows the mileage but after a few years on the farm they would sm...
