    Can I get some advice from you guys? Thinking of getting a lift and want to keep a softer feel to the truck like the off road comes with. I do commute from nh to Boston for work though.
    I’d love to get about 2” in height as well. It’s my understanding that getting the block spacers is a bad call. Would love to hear peoples input as this is my first truck,
    Thanks

    Thanks!

    Appreciate it. I'm looking for a Cinder Block porch installed plus cement/concrete walkway.

    Morning, everyone!

    Does anyone have Relentless skids? Let me rephrase that question, does anyone have Relentless skids and not taken them off for IDK 4 years?


    Uff-da!

    Rocks. Big, MoFo rocks. I can only dig down eight inches in my yard before I start hitting big rocks.

    I think I might have blown a head gasket in my ATV. I noticed I was losing a small bit of coolant here and there for the last year or so, and I had been topping off with distilled water. The other day I figured I should replace that with new since I no longer know what the freeze point is. I flushed the system out with vinegar and water, then water and put engine ice in. Now it smokes white on startup for a minute or so.

    My theory is it was going but had some crud kind of holding it together and flushing it cleaned it out and made it more obvious.

    I don't see any evidence of coolant in the oil though, and it doesn't smoke after it runs for a minute or so. I really don't want to tear that engine down.

    Well guys I've got a lot more reading to do and possibly some restoration. Just inherited what I believe to be a WWII Smith & Wesson .38 victory series revolver.

    Bringing it to a shop today as well as turning in the very old and most likely unusable ammo.

    Make sure you do all your reading first. I've seen some people 'restore' firearms and other items and while the end result was beautiful, functional, and looked practically brand new, they actually depreciated the item's value by removing patina and other indications of age/use.
