    Anyone know if the Ultra Guage has a MPG/speedo setting to account for larger tires? Couldn't find any info on their website.

    So, I have been on google, and wheelers website. looking for the metal sleeves for LR UCA's and can't find them. Do I need to call SPC and have them send me new ones.

    Somehow I have managed to throw away all the sleeves when I was a @Techoma house a month ago. I got Sierra to press the bushings but discovered the sleeves went missing.

    TIA!

    That too. Chiva falls in some parts has some really big boulders that you have to watch out for. My cross member got stuck one time leaving. You have to try to avoid bad areas for most the trail if you arent high enough.

    Lol, I'm usually high enough. Wink wink. The sad part is that ive run chiva 50 + times. Its pretty much my backyard. Been playing around out there since i learned to drive and in the last month this was my third trip to the falls. Skids have given me confidence to run new obstacles and run harder than I ever have and I'm beginning to learn that protection doesn't really mean I can just forget about the bottom of the truck when I'm out wheeling, even if its somewhere im very familiar with. Trails in the desert are constantly changing. Chiva is probably the roughest I've seen it in years.

    Bro I've salted and burned this yard. They never go away. I did that math and its cheaper to wait for the HoA notice and have a landscaper come by than it is to continuely spray.

    since on the weed killer topic..

    the wife and I are starting the process of redoing our backyard. we are digging out the bougainvillea's and cleaning up some rock landscape that border a grass section. we have some troublesome weeds and grass that have crept into the rocks. we picked up some Ground Clear concentrate to spray the weeds and bougainvillea's. soaked the bushes about 20 minutes each (to loosen the ground for digging them out as well), then sprayed. I also just poured some concentrate straight into the bougainvillea's to get down to the roots. its been a week... and everything looks untouched.

    any other chemicals or methods of ridding plants and weeds permanently? I was planning on just filling a gas can and going to town.

    I use Killzall on everything up here and you know what these weeds are like!! It kills everything I spray it on. It's a concentrate as well so it's nice if you need to make it a little more potent for bigger plants.

    If there's a hint of water weeds will grow.
    Clear the area, soak in weed killer, lay that plastic ground cover stuff down, and add rocks over it.

    Weeds will still grow on the edges of that plastic.
    All you can do is soak it every couple weeks and or pull them out.
