Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

Thanks. I hope they will. The only time they have ever been used it decides to crack. My kinda luck.

 

Some EAF stuff Phil and I have been working on. More info in my build thread.

 

holy shit news to me

 

We were keeping it on the DL until we made sure it was going to happen. I honestly didn't expect things to move along this fast, but since the frame is 2/3 of the way done, it was time to share the progress!

 

That would be how super secret stuff works. Its news to everyone once the cat is outta the bag.

 

i knew phil was changing his set up he kept saying he has new routs he's going to take but iggy never said anything and I'm just super excited to see how this turns out
like it may be the way id like to go

what made you do the clam wheel instead of flip completely over? roof space?

 

mine has burned up a fuel pump and ended up stranded on the freeway and still contentiously dose it.

 

The clam gives you a high peak that allows you to stand up. I was really close to buying a Habitat, but Like an RTT in rain and snow, when you pack it up it traps all that inside of the shell when closed. Even if the fabric doesn't leak, I didn't think it would good for four season camping. This way rain, snow or shine, I just climb in the camper, pop the top, extend the bed and I am set up for camp. If the weather is really bad I can cook and everything inside the camper. But at the same time it's light and offroad capable.

 

that makes perfect sense and corrects my only complaint about the RTT is when it gets wet and time to pack up it gets trapped inside
i just took my tent apart and washed it (wasn't to bad a little tricky getting it back together but I did it)
im so excited

 

im drunk!!! what is scrub radius? i know my 285s rub a little on the frame very little at full lock and stuffed. now just throwing on a 315 with 4.5 bs it looks like there will be a lot more rubbing at full lock and stuff but for normal driving it might work. Im on the fence to do it but i still want it to be drive able. i know its not really a comparison to a LT set up. so

 

Why the fuck is everybody drunk but me....not cool

 

you're only on 285s I thought you were on 315s?????

 

im not

 

X2. I feel the pain. I've been in dry barracks for 4 months. not cool.

 

........

 

Well played chris.



Sorry Ted. Beers on me sir

 

we finally signed a new contract today. so im getting a raise come January its only been two yrs since the last. so i tipped up the bottle. a little more then normal. Fuck it hard to type. good night.!!

 

Haha I had to look it up earlier. Posting what I understand, but I'm sure I'll get schooled...

It's the difference between the alignment of the UBJ and LBJ vs the center contact patch of the tire. The farther the center of tire is outside of Bj alignment (positive scrub radius) the more steering effort required due to the dragging of that part of the tire. Negative scrub radius spins the tire without dragging through turns.

I think...

 

I think you did better typing drunk than sober

 

Oh I wasn't saying that for pity haha. I've snuck off and had some brews when I can. and No way man, always gotta take care of joe! Once we are settled in the house, I'll have a bbq or something. turns out my neighbors are all into shooting, building shit, trucks, and making moonshine. Sounds like a GREAT neighborhood for a mod day haha
