Florida B.S. Thread

after wheeling this weekend, between the 2 of us, i don't think we could part together a dent-free speedway blue truck

 

I take care of it. (for the most part.....) I'm OCD about my truck with the exception of the last wheeling trip

After watching the videos of the timing chain wine on the frontiers I think that is my problem. The noise my truck is making is almost identical. Pisses me off it's already been fixed once

 

WTF! Whenever I click on UserCP it takes me to Discussion Topics. Anyone else have this problem?

 

why yes, yes I do... what is that light on the right side of the picture? almost looks like it's made to go through a boat hull?

 

you are correct. it's a standard 2'' through-hull fitting design. it's actually titanium that's been plated over. why you would plate over a beautiful titanium fitting like that is beyond me. but anyways....it's an underwater hull light. it was "on sale" for $550. i've installed 20 of these on a single boat before. it's nuts that people would spend 10k on just hull lights....especially knowing cost on the balast and bulp is like $15

 

saddest thing i've seen in a long time...... keep them in your thoughts http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/prayers-support/168268-my-buddy.html

 

Damn... that sucks man. My brother and his buddy were going down a back road and a drunk driver pulled in front of them from the oncoming lane. Scariest phone call of my life. And then another scary one was when we got the call his buddies mustand (my brother was in) flew off and on ramp... idk how he walked from both accidents but couldnt imagine life without him. I feel for that sean dude, that is terrible. Sad thing is the drunk ones usually escape uninjured.

 

I'd love to see a picture of the boat with 20 of those in the water lit up at night.... What color temperature bulbs did they use?

 

it's amazing to see a yacht lit up with them. i'll see if i have a picture on one that we did.

i'm not actually sure. it was a 35w ballast, and they usually want white or blue, so probably 5000 to 6000

 

Anyone looking for a suzuki samurai diesel??
$3,500

haha, dumb of me to say that.....i'm not on my laptop, so i don't have any of my pictures lol.

i've had the privelage to see a yacht called Twizzle in person. it's lights actually change color. it probably has 35 to 40 amd looks amazing.
here's a picture of it from google.


and here's an ida of what 20 grand will buy in lights

 

HAH! found it

that's awesome! just sent the link to a friend. he's up here in MD, but that's exactly what he's looking for. i wouldn't put it past him to get it up here somehow.

 

That's freakin cool

 

Yeah who knows either way it's badass! I wish I could afford that, that'd be a sick mud truck!

I just wouldn't think there'd be that much space in the wheel wells with 8" and 38's but it's probably just my eyes playing tricks on me . Yeah it's weird how much the other aspects of the truck can completely change how big the tires look. Just curious, how much lift did the jeep have?

 

i'm actually not sure how much lift it had. maybe 4 inches? specs i know are"
-ford 9'' axles front and rear
-38.5x14.5 super swampers
-locked front and rear
-hydro-assist steer
-shitty rancho shocks mounted in the stock locations

 

thad be a nice ride

 

You and your damn tumbleweed!!! I swear you have 500 posts of that it is dead tonight though...

 

did you ever decide which lift kit you were gonna get?

 

Yeah going to be doing DSM UCA's up front FOX resi c/o up front all pro (or someone elses maybe deaver have not really looked into it) leaves out back with fox resis. Mid travel and should be fun for a DD.
