    75% CO2/ 25% argon is standard mix for welding mild steel.

    If regearing you should lock. Lockers are not really an option for even moderate offroading

    I can't buy anything for a little while. I ran the credit card to the limit I made for myself. Credit card still has 9k of wiggle room though :anonymous:

    Don't do it. Credit cards are evil. I only buy if I have cash in hand. Never want to have debt again. The economy can tank at anytime, and I am never going through what I went through last time.

    Thanks, she likes to be subtle, but capable. I've been cautious with her lately until I finish off the rear suspension, the AP expos and RideRite airbags cause a little interference with the lower shock area. No worries, she will be playing hard soon enough.

    Agree. Don't do it. Being in debt sucks.

    Jon probably is describing a rough experience in his younger past. I've had a similar rough time with debt when I was a youngster. It was a deep hole that I had to pull myself out of. Never again.

    The only debt I have is a mortgage. Other than that, there has to be cash in my hand before I buy something.

    Listen to your elders.

    Anyone good with electronics? I've got four lights mounted to an N FAB bar. They are wired to toggle switches with two wires each switch. The switches I bought to replace them have four wires. This looks like it may be more trouble than it's worth, unless someone can give me a hand?

    Do you want all four lights on one switch or split them up between two switches? A pic of the back of the switch will help me explain what goes where. The switches have power in and out(two sperate wires) one ground, and one wire for switch to light up with dash lights.

    I want to keep it two separate. They're all driving lights but I'm going to switch two out to fog. I'll get some pics up. The new switches are illuminated so I'm sure that's what the extra wires are for. Issue is my current wires are both black/white. There's no clear way to determine what two will power the lights and what to do with the other two.
