    2024 SoCal Fall Rally

    I'm not sure whether or not I'm able to make it this year seems like every year I'm not able to make it but there will be a Trump rally at 5:00 p.m. in Coachella this Saturday! Perhaps can combine the two events.

    Any ideas for stickies re.: CAD/CAM AND 3D software/hardware.

    I started out my career using AutoCAD, AutoCAD is made by Autodesk which also makes the fusion product. However when SolidWorks came out I switched to that, and haven't used AutoCAD or any other Autodesk product much since. There are a lot of cool features in fusion but I haven't had much of...

    Any ideas for stickies re.: CAD/CAM AND 3D software/hardware.

    Many waterjet places will charge you about $100 minimum charge to cut out complex shapes and sometimes that even includes the price of the material. You do have to send them a dxf file or very clear dimensions. This would probably be better than 3D printing for this application. I have used...

    Any ideas for stickies re.: CAD/CAM AND 3D software/hardware.

    I can help you with that. Give me the dimensions you know about and the dimensions of things you'd like and we could work from there. I've already revers engineered half of my truck and the entire habitat. I use SolidWorks. They do have a SolidWorks version for tinkers that's very cheap, and...

    Severe wheel hop

    Thanks for the info. Out of more good curiosity later I'm going to reread all that just to see if there is any mention. Also it doesn't hurt to review the information that I've likely started to forget!

    Severe wheel hop

    My thought is to check the rotational alignment of the beadlocker or run flat with the ctis valve on the rim. With the beadlocker ring to the ctis I know the alignment is critical otherwise you will be out of balance. I don't know was run flat but I would assume that would also be the case...

    My gratitude in memory of those who served and have given their life!

    I was not in the military nor do I know anyone who lost someone in the military in service. Want to express my gratitude for those whose family members and friends have given the ultimate sacrifice! May the Lord be with you on this day as you remember their life! Salute!

    I might be a little crazy – 4,000 mile M1079 recovery Illinois to Alaska

    Well that's cool wish I would have found one of those originally didn't know about those upgrades

    I might be a little crazy – 4,000 mile M1079 recovery Illinois to Alaska

    I've bought tires a few times from Feltz, good service and good condition newer tires at a good price, few hundred each. Bostrom does make a low pro air ride seat that will fit that. 3/4 in under hood insulation in the dog house, and sound deadening mat and lots of insulation in the ceiling...

    LMTV Passenger Seats

    That's what I have and they fit but they're a little bit chunky, I would say they barely fit. I hear the Chrysler Pacifica seats fit better a little slimmer.

    I am interested in a double wide seat. I actually have the whole second row from the previous generation explorer Eddie Bauer explorer but it's a tad too wide for the double section, so I've bolted out in the bed like a Subaru Brat! PM me if you will be near Pendleton...

    Nice work! My question is what seats are those that you put in the middle because I've been trying to find a pair of middle seats that will fit well and not as tall as the f250 jumper seats

    Modifying the front of my expando-van habitat

    If anybody wants a solid model for the expansible van body, which comes on the m313 trailer among others and the m930 6x6 among others let me know and I can send it to you

    Modifying the front of my expando-van habitat

    I've remodeled the main trailer body using weldments in SolidWorks based upon my best measurements so far. This will give me more accurate ways to understand how am I modifications will affect the design strength etc.
