I did my bp51s with this guy and it was sketchy af. Leant the compressor to @BadDNA (second pic is his) and pretty sure he would agree on the sketch level.



If you have access to a real/wall mounted compressor, or a shop that can do it, I would highly recommend it.

 

Yup....that's what I was able to procure.....a wall mount

 

Have you used it yet?

 

Not quite yet, but I am currently building a "mobile stand up" rig for it

 

Agreed on Sony.

And agreed, I just wish people would seek to be kinder to each other.

 

My strategy there was to take just enough pressure off that I could adjust the collar 1-2 turns at a time. It worked well and somehow felt less sketchy than adjusting it all at once.

 

Agreed.

 

Low miles for the year, many new parts. No lowballs, I know what I got.

 

Has the heat affected anybody else this week? For the 1st time ever I think I experienced the effects heat can have. Man does that just hit you!

 

Thanks Mike - that's what I'm trying to avoid. Offroad Elements said they would do it.

 

Last year, almost passed out at neighbors house but I also hadn't eaten that day and think I only had like one water. Was just too busy

 

I worked on the beach and nowadays my tolerance is shit. I’m a winter dude I guess

 

Not this week, thankfully. My shop is not air conditioned (not yet at least, it might be next year ), but I don't work in the sun either. So it could be worse...

 

Anyone going into Vermont this weekend? Gonna be there tomorrow until sat. Probably heading to the dacks afterwards til weds

 

Depending on what part you're at I might know some spots. There's a real interesting stock-doable class iv and one that I did in a stock once but would not recommend anyone ever try doing that way, I would absolutely recommend walking that downhill first to scout it before committing. If you're anywhere near, say, Glover, I can show you both and I can drive back downhill on the 2nd to ferry you back up to the parking spot at the top.

I can chase with a winch and a recovery kit, but both trucks with winches would be safer.

 

I'm up to around 24 hours with no power. The truck helps with generator mode, except for when I have to go to work. I was hoping it would be back late morning/early afternoon so the fridge stuff wouldn't go too long without a power source, but no such luck.

That storm really did damage yesterday, so I heard National Grid keeps fixing one spot just to find five more.

 

I keep expecting storms the last two days and didn't even get a drop of rain

 

I think LG supplies the display for Sony TVs. Last time I was comparing OLED TVs, i think the LG TVs looked better

 

Could be, I know LG provides the display for a bunch of brands
