Keystone State Thread

Sounds about right, I recall being detained 30-40 minutes around midnight on a similar fishing trip. Got questioned a good amount about my evening, how much I had to drink (including him grilling me about my criminal record). Finally tells me my plate light is out. I ask which side and he told me get out so he can show me. I declined but he said it's an order now smartass. Turns out both sides were working. No apology, no nothing.

 

Sounds about right. I've had similar experiences. Luckily I've avoided from being pulled over in roughly 15yrs.
Shit when I was 25 I was arrested because I didn't know the guys last name that was involved in a altercation that I had nothing to do with. And my brother had to drive home to tell my father. What shit show that was. Nothing like being grilled for 3hrs till pops showed up and they had to release me because they had nothing.

 

Whew what a week, pictures coming in the am of my work week. I'm beat, enjoying a yellow label or two. Happy Friday night all.

 

Happy Friday all …

Yikes -- that was a PA state trooper? How the mighty have fallen. When I was young and stupid the PA staties were known as a no-nonsense bunch. If you got pulled over, you were getting a ticket -- or getting arrested.

I once got pulled over by a park policeman in Valley Forge Park. He already had someone pulled over but told me I had a headlight out and to wait. I pulled over, looked at the light, banged it with my fist (this was back in the incandescent bulb days) and it lit back up. Off I went.

 

Anyone wanna hit the trails at AOAA or Rausch Creek this Sunday? Been a minute since I've had the truck on the trails.

 

not this weekend but one of these days I want to get out to that part of the state and enjoy some time at either location

 

Good morning Pennsylvania and surrounding areas.

 

Good morning all.

 

Good morning PA.

 

Morning Pa. First decent size project in my new role. Worked with local contractor, many e mails, phone calls, site visits with myself and my boiler mechanic to get just what we need within budget. Customized quote for materials and install. The day after I submitted our quote for approval, we lost our backup Quincy compressor. POS Champion had already been down, both pumps on that unit done. Keep in mind with no air for pneumatic controls, heating fails open. So yeah we had a toasty building. Price of parts and repair I pushed for new unit. Here we are. University sent a driver to Fredericksburg VA to pick up new pump, tank, and filters. Meanwhile, my guys removed old Champion piece by piece, lots of weight. Did it in one day along with their normal duties. One big reason I took new position, my shop has much of skill and experience within the guys. We have four different classifications within our shop. Three of us have 20+ years, several others are in their late teens of seniority @ the university. Many different skill sets, these guys know their stuff and the campus and equipment. I express all the time for management to realize the assets they have in personnel. No need to micro manage, give them a task and turn them loose! Taking this win!

 

Good morning all. Breakfast, drop off taxes, then the gym.

 

Good morning. Anyone here run the Ironman Foam Cell Pro lift kit or and of the Ironman lift kits? Looking to upgrade and replace my blown out and worn out front coilsprings, shocks and leafsprings?

 

For the price it’s a great solid kit and does not require rebuilds. Even if they did, it could be a DIY job since no nitrogen pressure. I’ve had it on my truck for a few years. While solid it is pretty stiff. Besides occasional squeaking from the leaf packs, fixed with some silicon spray or woolwax, I’ve not had any issues. There are a few thread on the kit as well-

I had the foam cell pro on my 3rd gen. It rode very nice! I never got to put it through any real off-road testing though. And the only component I didn't install was the new UCA because I couldn't get the bolt out of the factory ones

 

I'd say go for it since you do alot of towing. And God knows how long it will be till you get the rear shocks that I have. I'm almost thinknof shipping them to you.

 

Thanks - I can't find "Friend's" auto repair or service in Center/Monaca on google maps. Is there a different name I should search?
