I don't have a bobbed duece so I can't really make the comparison that is asked however I have several M37's and M35's and have looked at (and driven) several bob jobs that friends have...
I really like the fact that my M37's can get into a standard size parking space and that the bed is low...
If you mean Lovettsville, Virginia (in Loudoun County), you might try to catch Maddawg308 before he heads out for the Haspin rally... Maybee somebody could then haul it up your way...
Good luck.
I like those Firestones. Drove a truck (M109) that had them mounted on it recently. They look like a copy of the Michelin XZL tread pattern but with a harder rubber compound (or at least it seemed like a harder compound based on the ride charactaristics).
FWIW:
I've been getting my...
Nice ride!
I really like M37's...
Instead of typing a lot of stuff into this thread, I'll just sugest that you hop over to my website and do a looking poking around... I've got plenty of info on tires, markings, parts cross reference, spark plugs, wipers, etc... And I'm always looking for...
I'm pulling out after work tonight (actually, I'm going to slide out a little early and do the last minute food pickup...) so that I can meet up with Ferro...
Spent part of last night tightening the "newish" belts on the XM813 that finally got stretched on the trip up to Aberdeen. Hope that...
Sorry for the delay in getting back to everyone on costs... I lost internet here for the last couple of days (dang storm droped a tree on the lines running to the house...
Anyway,
Cranking out the numbers shows that I can do this for $30 each for the Wed-Sunday menu that I posted earlier. I...
Since I haven't seen any major complaints about the menu items, I'm proceding on the assumption that everone is ok with that aspect of things... :)
I'm going to swing by my local food distributor's place tonight and will price out the items in the quantities that I'd need to feed everyone that...
I'm sticking this in it's own thread right now just so that it doesn't get mired in all the other info about the rally...
I'm still planning on cooking...
We had talked about having everyone Paypal me funds before the event so that I would have cash to go shopping, but since Paypal charges a...
I'm alive... :)
Inbox at work was overfilled so much that my entire desk was covered with junk when I got in yesterday... just now getting some time to do something "productive"...
I'll give both Adam and Mike a call tonight about the route and times, but here is what I am thinking:
Adam...
I'll add my "intermediate" after action report... :)
I'm sitting at my folk's farm (site of the Labor Day trailrides and rally in Virginia) listening to the rain on the tin roof... Getting ready for the annual Bluegrass Festival that starts on ?Thursday (although we already have folks...
Reply sent. This will be an easy pickup, and I really appreciate being able to snag those tents and bags of mine that you have been holding on to as well... :)
Where is it located? I may be able to snag it for you on the way up if it isn't too far out of the way... I'm running up with the Convoy to Richmond (actually Doswell) on Wednesday, then on up to Aberdeen on Thursday.
If we could hook up on the ride from Raleigh to Doswel, or at Doswel...
To quote a bit from the last paragraph of the article that David wrote that is posted in the refrenced thread:
"Silicone brake fluid is completely compatible with elastomer materials used in conventional brake systems. Although it does not mix with conventional-type brake fluids, it is...
It's the same as an ignition switch so, hopefully, finding a good used one want be that hard for you. The "usual suspects" also have then new in stock.
Don't forget that the "by the book" instalation pulls power from the dimmer switch so that you can't turn them on without having the...
I see that I need to get the flyer, info packet, and registration pages done... :)
You can bring your dog. The Lodge fee for pets only applies if you get a room at the Lodge, not if you are camping out.
We have a shower facility in the middle of the field that we will be camping in with plenty...
Just a reminder, the dates for this rally are set. I have a commitment from the folks for Labor Day Weekend for the next four years... :)
Dates for this year are September 3-7, 2009. (That is a Thursday through Monday).
I should have the flyer done up this weekend.
If you still need the alternator, send me a PM... I have a spare 005A for the unit we have installed for backup power here at the farm that I know is missing the injector pump, but that may still have the alternator... I'll go look in the morning...
I thought it odd at first too, but then...
I think that ODIron is pretty much just Mike (with some help from "the girls"), so it may be that he would rather all the initial contact come via email/the website.
I know that you can reach him through the site here as well as through the ODIron site...
I ordered some five ton (M817) and 1/4 ton (M38) parts about a little over a week ago. Used the on-line order form. I think I paid with a CC, might have used Paypal...
Got the parts about a week later.
Had several emails concerning the order (the five ton parts were in stock, the quarter...
