Long Travel BS Thread

A lot of people need to learn the difference between hearing and listening, and need to work on their ability to do the second. It's like groundhogs day in here.

I think quite a few of us spend far less time in this thread than we used to because their isn't near as much value in here as their used to be. As far as searching goes all the info is there but you gotta read a lot to find it. I personally prefer searching for it. I tend to learn for more then if I just asked the question in here for the 100th time.


As far as @jberry813 goes he knows more than most of us combined about these trucks, and he learned most of it the old fashion way. You may not like the saltiness but he's generally spot on and all his knowledge was earned. I'll gladly let him point out how stupid my posts are cause when I have a question with legitimate merit he's the guy I'm gonna ask.

 

I see what you are talking about as this is how the classic TTORA days were in their desert section. Nothing wrong with listening...but was this always a "BS" thread or did it just get evolved into one? At the same time, one could argue that really there is nothing to be gained anymore outside of the guy who does some innovative new build on a kit, or goes full race style with a 6.5 kit with links or something.

 

On a side note... looking over my old kit, my stock gusseted spindles are hammered!! Cracked in like 4 spots... everything else is cherry but dayum... maybe I was hard on my old setup lol

 

Damn man I wouldn't of expected that many. Got any pics of them? Im always on the look out for the next split.

 

jberry is my hero.
but as im taking this new adventure on LT, reading through 3000 pages of crap is really not fun.
maybe im getting old and my searching isn't that great.
that link was really useful to me sent me right to very informational stuff. as a few other links have that jberry has posted in the past.
Its always easy to find good info once you have seen it before, it can be a pain in my neck to search for something I don't know. (if that makes any since).
Please forgive me now if I ask any ?'s in the near future that's been covered. I have thick skin, I can take being roasted. I could just blow up Jason's inbox, but that might not work out to well for me. lol

 

sad truth here...

 

Legitimate question. Is there a way to search through one particular thread?

 

yes.

While you're in a thread, go to the search bar. Click to type something in. If you look down on the popup you'll see a small box you can click that will say "Search this thread only".

As well as search this forum only

and

Display results as threads

 

Wow! I'm dumb" mind blown!

 

yeah, kinda hidden. Used to be easier to use really i think. But once you know where to click its not bad.

Be careful, you know what next Friday is????

 

There are a lot of questions on here that can be solved witha tape measure and common sense too lol

 

It always surprises me how many people cant read a tape measure.
And comon sence whats that?
To bad they dont teach that in school.lol

 

Sorry maybe its just a norcal inside joke.
But a few will get it im sure.

Picked up my Advanced/Glassworks bedsides from the guys at Camburg today. They were actually ready within the 3 week time frame I was told, which is surprising for Advanced/Glassworks.


Some guy named Scott helped me and he was all,"Hey, I'm number 3." And I was all




Anyways, that's my story.
