    Robert; I have some lightweight high-strength aluminum sheet pieces coming. I figure I'll use them for filler on my front bumper sides to keep the weight down. The center and bottom impact areas will be 3/8"s and the low impact areas will be this aluminum. Trying to balance the weight to strength issues.

    I say Adam buys it. With his style of off roading he needs the extra HP.

    Sounds like a pretty good plan. Looking at getting a chopsaw here pretty soon, and maybe a bender :cool:


    Still wouldn't mind just borrowing Blake's chopsaw though.

    From the sound of the explanation it is just a resistor that leans out the air/fuel ratio. Lean runs mean and gives great mileage. Lean also runs hot and can cause you to burn a hole in your cylinder. You can't save enough on gas to make up the difference of a motor rebuild.

    Do you know Keith and how hard he wheels? It is a little more then just mud. He only goes after the largest chunks of rock I've ever seen. :cool:It's called concrete.
