Get a HAM license and it won't matter. I took the exam after reading the test questions on-line, and had no trouble passing. The test cost $15. You will wind up spending a hundred times that much in attorney fees and court costs fighting the Florida law, with a fairly good probability of...
The Battery Minders will work, IF the battery is at 10.5 volts or better when it starts, otherwise it will run for months (and if the green light does not come on when you hook it up - before A/C power, it's below 10.5 volts) before you see anything. Then you will have to let it float...
on level ground a full deuce fuel tank should have about 40 usable gallons of fuel. Take your tank and measure it with a wooden stick (with the strainer assembly out) and mark it, drive 100 miles, and measure again. Compute your fuel mileage. Compute how far you can go on 30 gallons. Go on...
Check each individual cell with a voltmeter (IE, take the caps off, put the neg probe on the neg terminal and the pos probe into the solution on the closest open hole. You should see about half a volt. then switch the probes, with the neg in the first solution and the pos in the next one. If...
If your object is to make a camper, AND you have fabricating skills, then > You should look for a 105 sized generator trailer (the type with two MEP002's or MEP003's on it). They are the same width as a regular 105, bit the flat area is 10 feet front to back (123 inches) vs 110 inches for the...
Fast Track Logistics is a broker for shipping services, with local 'agents' that are more 'affiliated' than employees of a company. Often they will have someone at the larger locations every day, preparing shipments to go out and when they have a truck load call the lowest price company to pick...
If you want to stop by the compound, give me a call about half an hour before your expected arrival so I can get over there. PM with phone numbers sent.
The 1/2 inch is good for trucks, the 3/4 is supposed to be used on tracks. Does not always work that way, so they don't always work when they hit the surplus market.
1/2 inch or 3/4 inch drive? They make both. Do a search for 'roboimpact' and you should find a bunch of threads. I got one a couple of years ago, but use a 20mm ammo can for a case.
The in tank pump is supposed to supply 4 to 7 psi to the IP, and the IP takes it from there. The company that makes the pump has them for about $250, but I've read the literature on them - they are expected to last about 4000 hours. Remember that your engine hour gauge may not have anything...
There are a couple of folks in the Augusta, GA area that I think are coming to the GA Rally in Oct, where they could hand it off to you or maybe Kenny, if you can wait that long.
Put a price and add "OBO" (Or Best {reasonable} Offer). That indicates that the seller will consider less, without committing to a lower price. Problem solved!
the national map under the Resources tab at the top no longer works, but you can try these threads to find some of the information on your route.

If you stay on 95, there aren't many tolls to pay. Take the loop around Richmond to avoid that one, take the loop around Jacksonville to avoid traffic congestion. That puts you into the DC area with only food and fuel expenses (unless Murphy decides to ride along). Be collecting phone numbers...
I know where there are three big towbars, one is complete with all the feet (wooden box is broken that says wt = 426 pounds). Other two do not have feet. PM me and I'll get anyone the contact info. Can have pics Thursday morning.
