    Yeah I'm aware there was a bad crash at the dunes, I was just looking for info on what happened, specifically.

    Proper Seat and Harness Selection

    Anyone care to share what occurred in the dunes recently? I'm not on FB or IG. It's no disrespect to those involved to talk about it.

    Rear hub upgrade

    Do your homework before you get your mind set on outboards. To go Pro-Am that's likely a $15,000 upgrade after it's all said and done. I've got Tatum 930 midboards, they work ok and I haven't broken anything yet. 2500lb, stock LS3 with 33s, all 300m cvs., car is 94" total width in rear with 31...

    A question for SXS owners

    Why do ya'll roll them into the driveway and let them idle for hours on the weekends? It's insanely annoying to those who live nearby. I've got 2 neighbors who do this, it starts at 8am on Saturday and then AGAIN on Sunday. WTF are you trying to accomplish? Don't get me started on the...

    Nitrogen in Shocks

    That's correct. With my Fox bypass, the shaft can move upwards with oil bypassing the shim stack until it gets to about half way where it moves beyond the first bypass tube, it will then lose the ability to bypass through both tubes and it will get substantially stiffer. When it moves beyond the...

    Nitrogen in Shocks

    Unless I've been wrong for years, Fox bypass shocks use 2 compression and 1 rebound bypass tubes (unless they're the high dollar bypasses which use more tubes). The longest compression bypass is in use until the shaft is almost fully compressed, once the shim stack moves beyond the bypass tube...

    Whats a COMPLETE Turbo Honda setup worth?

    Mine is heavier and had a lot of body roll when I needed to turn in a hurry, something a sway bar would've corrected I suppose. It is definitely heavier.

    Whats a COMPLETE Turbo Honda setup worth?

    Your results are pretty much what I experienced. I liked how the Honda drove but I also like that with the LS I can just dune in 3rd most of the time. I rarely ever go balls out fast, that just doesn't thrill me, what I do like is being in 3rd and coming upon a hill and I can just goose it and...

    My faith in humanity has been restored - what would you do ?

    Everyone always expects used stuff to be top notch these days, when in fact it's used stuff. You buy it, you own it.

    Nitrogen in Shocks

    That's all dependant on how open or closed the tubes are. I keep the longest tube closest towards the end of travel closed more than the short tube because I want the dampening from the valving so the shaft slows down and won't bottom out as easily. In other words my bypass shock gets much...

    Nitrogen in Shocks

    All of the nitrogen is on top of the piston in the reservoir and just keeps the fluid under pressure. As the shock compresses the shaft displaces fluid and it goes into the wet bottom side of the reservoir. Changing the nitrogen pressure does change the stiffness of the shock in general but not...

    Working or not working between Christmas and New Years?

    Took Tuesday off because I was sick, had Xmas day off, then took yesterday off because I was still sick. I worked today although I probably shouldn't have, I never take days off of work. I'll get 2 sick days plus the holiday so my check will be pretty normal.

    Tool Talk

    Snap-on as a company has some brilliant marketing, they package everything in a plastic carrying case with a lid so that when your tool box is "full" you have to upgrade to a bigger one. I don't go onto the tool trucks anymore but when I do there's always some young kid from our lube rack that's...
