Long Travel BS Thread

I love bent shafts

 

@Dirt King Fab knocking it out of the park again with their customer service helping me piece together a spare front axle with their inner cv machining.

Now hopefully I don’t have to use it on the rubicon next month

 

Rubicon? Youll be somewhat near me, expect some snow still.

 

Yep, starting the trail July 15. Last I saw there was still up to 3’ of snow on the trail in spots so hopefully warm weather persists to melt that down.

 

Snow in July is God's way of letting you know you f'd up at some point along the way.

 

No, no - it’s God’s way of making up for the recent completely shitty past snow seasons we’ve had...ever been to Jackson Hole and Alaska for heli boarding in the same season and nearly skunked for pow at both...This guy has

 

Bummer.

 

Its called evolution!
Earth is constantly changing. Has been as long as man as recorded. And will continue to no matter what we do. We may b ed speeding it up or prolonging it. That's hard to say either way. But scientist are on
Both sides pointing fingers. Me I say fuck it I won't live long enough to see who's right. And as long as there is humans making waste we will self destruct the planet one way or the other. I'm curious to se in 25 yrs from now what will we do with all the solar panels and battery. As of January 2020 all new homes in ca will require solar with only a few exeptions.
With a 15 to 25 yr life span that's going to be alot of shit with no way to recycle 90 percent of it. Go green .lol

 

what kind of tool boxes do you guys have.. building a garage for my truck so im getting a new tool set up.

 

Ignore the big brand names and just look for what counts, your box should be bigger than your current tool assortment or be expandable IE: side cabs etc so you have room to grow, look for good roller bearing drawers etc

 

Thankfully he paid us back this year with two epic heli and snow cat trips, just hit the Wasatch for a few days in a cat end of April and scored absolutely epic conditions at Thousand Peaks Ranch with Park City Powder Cats zoom in on all those bowls every track is ours Made the expensive mistake of getting my girl hooked on chasing pow too...oops

 

exatly what i was thinking. tools arent too expensive just the boxes is what im trying to get the best bang for the buck. thinking a big 72" that has a nice drawer layout i could keep mostly everything in and then a smaller 26" or something i could add cabinets and stuff on to if i need something mobile. building a 25'x25' garage for temporary space till we get a shop built so ill have some room to play with

 

Costco has a tool box right now for only like 800 bucks that quite big my dad has. Id get that and then supplement with a couple of US General tool carts from HF. They are actually nice.

 

Yeah I'd always spend on other stuff than tool boxes. Even if it was my 9-5 the money saved is worth it imo.

 

I've never had an issue with the US general stuff. Works fine for me. The Costco box is very nice too and Id get it but don't have room for it at the moment.

 

Husky from Home Depot has some nice 60-72” toolboxes. Very happy with mine.

 

Toolbox bang for the buck? Lista is hard to beat.

 

i was thinking a 66" husky big box and then a smaller 30" 5 drawer. i was just gonna get a 44" with a side cabinet and then another attached drawer system but i could get the 2 boxes for the same price and still have more room. everyone dogs on harbor freight but ive never had problems with any of their stuff.

 

#FakePowNews. There's no powder in the Wasatch. No reason to come here.

I hear the Sierras are where all the powder is.

 

I got a 62" from Home Depot. Got it on sale.was like 450$ at the time. Have no complaints about it so far but wish I could of got a bigger one.thats all
