AZ BS Thread 4²0

The bed hook thread is a unicorn - M11x1.25 which a 7/16-20 fits quite swimmingly. Found that out when installing the bed stiffeners.

Yep...that's what Total Chaos includes with their bed stiffeners (7/16-20 X 1.25, G8)

 

Yup I’ve figured that one out haha. That was a rats chase trying to find a damn bolt that fit that.

 

I may need a drywall guy??
Anyone in the Gilbert area that can do a large patch job for me if we need it??
I could figure it out but I have enough on my plate with this project..

 

How big is this patch job?

 

It has been forever since I have been on the forums. Looks like everyone is doing well.

Which companies are recommended for steel bumpers these days? So many of the old companies are gone.

 

I know a guy

 

80"x20" hole. I might used the pieces i cut out to patch it back up. Was going to install an electric fireplace for a friend and ran into a few issues in the location. Doesnt have to be perfect as it will be covered up by the fireplace just hanging on the wall.

 

I swear every time I go to group my precision rifle I pull ONE just to mess up the group.

5 shots today...

 

Stack 10 shot groups they all blend together if the rifle is good

 

It's frustrating to try to relearn your dials... switching over to MIL from MOA because it makes your long range dials WAY easier. When your ballistic app gives you a decimal you can dial to the 10th instead of dividing in 1/4ths on MOA.
Relearning how to Zero does take some doing. I'm used to the MOA of your zero based off that grid at 100.

With .1 mil clicks it looks like I still need to come 1 down and 3 right.

Having had a double stroke in the area of the dome that regulates fine motor movement though, I was worried. Felt like I was kinda fumbling with the rifle and getting into a comfortable position, but behind the scope and on the trigger... still there.

Going for 1000 yards later on this month, hopefully.

 

Offer stands if you want to hit up cowtown with me
Long drive for you but
1380 yards in play

 

I'm reserving a platform for my birthday actually. Let me DM you.

 

Please do I'm due for another trip

 

Big ditch to the right on AZ-88, 8 miles east of Tortilla Flat. Probably could not have just "driven it out" ...

 

Doesn’t look different but good progress made. 719 holes are tapped, rear gear plate is mounted. Time to make the jack handle and spring mount. Then these are off to anodize and powder coat.

 

No she comes from money. And he works in their product development area I believe. I have never met the dude just heard through the grapevine.

 

Anyone got a lead on where to buy extended wheel studs for 3rd gen?

I’ve got bare minimum turns on mine with aftermarket wheels right now.

looking at these specs but I’m willing to be corrected, I’ve got a link saved for a Japanese distributor but I’m stubbornly wondering why I can’t just get these from Summit Racing or ARP direct.

I’ve seen the other threads with bolts that need to be cut. There has to be a better way.

 

Use et lug nuts.
