    Ended up grabbing one from tractor supply and adding some spacers. Think i need to clean up the threads with a tap. The bolt that came out from there was pretty messed up. I think for whatever reason the skid plate was putting too much tension on it

    If we were talking rabbits I would understand the quick growth, but I though Chickens took a little longer.

    Those are a pretty coarse thread that can take some abuse. Worth hitting it with some thread lube or loctite of some sort, but probably fine. Mine have seen some shiz.

    Oh they have rabbits too. Or had. I can't remember.
    But you add Willow (the dog, not the stripper) to the mix and the chicken math is going to do some weird stuff.

    Have any of you guys tired RBP Tires or know someone who has? They are much cheaper than other all terrain and mud tires. Are they good or garbage?

    I have some knock off E loads ATs, half are made in Vietnam, half are made in Cambodia :rofl:

    They've been fine. Balanced just as shit as other E loads, haven't blown up in about 25k miles. I figured if I wanted to try E loads, a cheapo attempt is the best way to try them instead of going for something twice the cost.

    Anyway, that seems like any typical rebranding company that buys something off Temu or similar and brands it as their own. :notsure:

    Hmmmmm

    1. No insurance needed
    2. No trailer needed which means no trailer insurance, registration, inspection needed
    3. No minimum safety standards other than a PFD, that's it
    4. Usable on more lakes that don't allow power/motor boats
    5. Easy to handle with one person
    6. Less likely (not impossible, but less likely!) to get a DUI on one.


    Same justification to use bikes to get around. They tied the East Bay Bike Path down here into the city, there's only one BS section in East Providence that goes along a road. They tried to make it a bike lane but the city lost their god damn minds

    It lasted 8 days.

    https://turnto10.com/news/local/east-providence-to-ditch-bike-lane-after-a-week

    But otherwise, whenever I need to go into Providence (even without the bridge BS) I try to take the bikes, way easier than dealing with that nonsense - and I get VIP parking :D I don't do it enough to justify a nice E bike, but I want one.

    For the lift portion. Maybe its not closer but it will be alot more fun and save you some cash. Hit up this thread if you want to do it at a mod day.

    My SIL's father was a union carpenter his entire career. It was so ingrained in him that even when he was working on something at home or one of his kids homes he'd take a 15 minute break at 10:00 and 2:00. And exactly 15 minutes
