Well played

 

I miss pbb circa 2002. More tech, less unhinged.

 

yeaaaaa

idk if it explains enough of my brain damage but 2003-2012 pbb was my favorite reading

 

that's probably a key part of why I wheel a leaf sprung yota as hard as some of the coils and links buggy beings besides all the childhood driving experiences

 

It still blows my mind how accurate the “diesel trucks - ricers of the future” thread was


And some of the crazy shit people built.

 

I have found that the diesel experience is one that I struggle with. The noises they make, I'm like, that sounds broken. But it seems normal? In the cold I got a tick that seems new, possible exhaust leak, but damn do they overall sound broken on cold starts.

 

I mean their whole design is basically knock. They're just built to withstand not doing anything optimally. The new ones however are actually pretty optimal. They don't even make scary knocking noises in cold starts anymore

 

Definitely CV outer failure is most common, I would say nobody maintains their grease very well... but I always be packin a spare CV.

I'll have to see if I have any old ADD tubes with this "failure", the clicking (I think) is the collar on the ADD stub shaft having wear, I remember the first time this happened I was convinced I blew the diff, tore it apart to find no issues lol.

I'm pretty convinced its the wear in the collar in the

it could be the T-case chain skipping teeth

thats awesome! thanks so much for the tag and the data dude!!

I haven't done anything that thin. Working in 10ga right now.

3/8" 304 for header flanges is mostly where I'm at and I have not tuned the settings enough on that at all!!

 

Be curious to see your results on 3/8"

Most I'll do on the 12 gauge I've got are bottle openers, and really that'd be after I dial my settings some

Just want to fill in more data in my personal cut sheet; here's book settings for mild



And my settings for mild dialed in



Been too lazy to add my 1/4" settings as I've been using my settings from my other torch with great results; just haven't confirmed it with test pieces yet

 

@0xDEADBEEF

 

It is a little unsettling that you tagged me

 

I thought we shared the same humor

 

Oh we do.




Also, I can see myself in that boat.
