    Clarkston Solar project.

    I was in China not too long ago and these were very common. I am surprised that we don't see more of them here (especially in homes that don't have natural gas water heaters).

    Rumblin Wreck Build

    Yeah, you do need to be mindful of battery drain under my setup. I actually use two of the 720 watt converters and I have ran the stereo, amp, and PA's all night by accident once and the truck still fired right up in the morning. Having the security of the 3rd, independent, battery is...

    Rumblin Wreck Build

    I made the two switch panels (one on each side of the steering wheel) out of 2" angle aluminum. Very easy to work with and it can found easily at you local home improvement store. After I cut the brackets to length, I just determined the number of switches I needed and then drilled equally...

    Rumblin Wreck Build

    apache, I respect your opinion but for the installation of a simple stereo, CB, and DC accessory outlet, a $25-40 converter is the way to go. It is far less expensive, can be mounted nearly anywhere, no custom bracket needed, and can be done extremely quickly. A 12v alternator in this case...

    newbe with ??? on buying a Deuce

    Don't get discouraged buddy. Sometimes it can take pretty thick skin to deal with folks here (especially when you are the new guy) but I assure that they mean you no harm and for the most part are a great group of people who would bend over backwards to help you out. Some can be real anal about...

    Welcome to the site! Wish I lived closer so you could mic me up.

    Rumblin Wreck Build

    If that is all you are running you could probably get buy with one of the 720 watt voltage converters that Pyle makes. You can find them on amazon for less than $40. I have pictures of mine (I have two) earlier in this thread. I would not go though all the trouble of installing a 12v...

    Rumblin Wreck Build

    Thank you greatly for the compliment! :D I'm enjoying your build thread as it unfolds. That truck of yours is mighty slick! Unfortunately, for the GT vs UGA game, I'm committed to going to a game watching party at my buddy's house in Smyrna. I can definitely help you when it come to...

    M35A2 Zombie Hunter

    Can you tell if it turns sharper now or is it about the same? Is it easier to turn the steering wheel?

    New Deuce owner finally in NV!!! See what ya think?

    I don't think that would be the case though if he removed the tank from the truck. That is what I originally had in mind when I suggested using the tank to hold WMO.

    newbe with ??? on buying a Deuce

    You can get a really nice deuce for $10,000. Are you looking more at the A2's or A3's? While you're looking for your deuce, let's see some pictures of that 1968 Cutlass! :D

    New Deuce owner finally in NV!!! See what ya think?

    A very good buy considering the pump, tank and winch. Can you use the tank it to store fuel? If so you could really take advantage of the multi fuel engine if you had or could find a waste oil source.

    my BETSY has finally arrived!!!

    Post some pics when you get a chance. I have seen a thread about ramps. Use the search function and I am sure you will find it.

    RPM vs Speed vs Tire size

    You really don't even have to go through that trouble. You can prove it mathematically very easily if you know just a little information. For argument sake, assume the following: Original Setup Engine RPM = 2,500 Original Tire Diameter = 40" Speed = 45 mph Potential Setup Engine RPM = 2,500...

    The Steel Soldiers 2nd Annual Wounded Warriors Fund Drive

    I love checking the total each day and watching it climb. Way to go fellow Steel Soldiers! :beer: Let's keep up the good work!

    RPM vs Speed vs Tire size

    My A3, according to GPS, goes about 47mph at 2,700rpm (with stock 14.5 x 20). I really don't like to run it wide open like that, just to stay above the minimum interstate speed. Ideally I would like to run about 60ish mph at 2,100rpm. OP, You are a brave man to open this can of worms.

    The deuce and a spray plane

    I use to watch them spray my grandad's peanuts. The really good ones would have peanut vines wrapped around their wheels when they would pull up. :shock:
