Long Travel BS Thread

guilty as charged

 

Well you are not some affliction wearing 40 year old asshat trying to prove to his brat kits that he is still cool by not pulling over for a 6000lb prerunner coming up at him at 80mph honking and flashing at him while he is getting his ass kicked by little whoops at 30mph

 

you don't know me bro! lol no... like i said, i get it man and you're right. party on wayne

 

Much respect! my little brother is one as well. Fucker drops in from a helicopter in the middle of a fire with only a chainsaw and an axe. You guys are crazy! You do what most people wouldn't dare. Good for you!

 

thaks bud. nice for your bro! what helitak crew is he on and who does he work for? i do that same shit too and have worked with a lot of other helitak crews. fire is small community... might have worked with him lol

 

Sick! He just got his cert(or whatever is needed. He's green) about a year and a half ago. He's been bouncing around from Alaska and utah. Pretty sure he's headed back to Utah soon.

 

right on dude. i'm sure he loves it. hope he stays safe and saves the day

 

Yeah the rhino fad was pretty bad when everyone had money before the economy hit the tanker but at the same time I remember a lot of asshats in prerunners being wreckless back then. But I agree, utvs took the spot of quads doing donuts in the middle of campgrounds

 

So it's $2300 + shipping + your axles as a core. And they are using the stock bearing lol

What a rip off

 

Damn I think I will put that money towards a solo motorsports kit instead haha

 

exactly, and taking my cv's apart again......not gunna happen till I snap one lol, and that's quite a few axles and hubs worth

and you helitak guys, and line firefighters are the only people I respect in the Forest Service, the rest are morons( I work on a skycrane contracted for FS during fire season) they waste some very expensive resources to do some retarded ass shit, especially at about 9k$ an hour ontop of a 13k$daily rate, lol

 

Yeah i wouldnt be paying 15-20k for one either, i got mine for a SMOKING DEAL IMO. I paid 12k but it wasnt all the way completed. never seen dirt though so that was nice, But ran and drove! needed skins, dash, wiring harness extended, and harnesses and seats bolted up basically.

I hear you 100%, I have seen some jackasses but not as many as you guys probably..... i tend to stay away from the big riding areas, besides glamis.

 

Thanks for making this write up "Bro Friendly" lol

Don't listen to anything sirhk100 says, he's an old guy and still uses flux core haha

 

I've moved on to welding with gas but only on windy days!!! When it's not windy I stick with fluxcore!

 

I work for the BLM. The forest circus is a shit show for sure

 

So, if I have to chose between camber and caster... what would you guys go with?

-2 degrees camber and 3 degrees of caster, or -0.4 degrees camber and 1 degree of caster?

Those seem to be "the options" my truck is currently offering lol.

 

How much preload u got? Might be able to dial out sum of that camber, and still maintain your castor

 

Bed cage, tool box, and DMZ SUA kit for sale. $2000. Doesn't come with shocks or bump stops. Buyer will need new u-bolts. Comes with everything else. Going to cut it at the cab.

 

Any chance you will sell just the toolbox? Does it have multiple holes drilled in it or is it in good condition?

 

More castor, otherwise it's going to wander and not want to return to center, a few degrees of camber won't hurt
