    I bet your flywheel is destroyed. Did they replace it?

    They replaced the flywheel. Old one was pretty glazed. It happens about one out of every ten or so starts which makes me think a couple of teeth are a little off. Was hoping it was wear on the old starter gear but doesn't look that way. Might wait until it becomes predictable enough that I know it will do it at the shop. :eek:

    yeah sounds like either the starter gear isn't protruding out all the way or the fly wheel has some missing teeth.

    I feel the same way on that subject, being in the marines there were to many guys that wanted to go off roading and drink, It doesnt make for a good time. By the way were exactly are we all meeting on the 22nd? Ive never been to a meet with you guys so Im not sure of the usual meet spot.

    Alright so Pigger was taken out. Have fun making money at your gig.:D

    Are you in ABQ or Rio? It is at the very end of southern Blvd. in Rio Rancho. Just keep driving till the road dead ends into a big sand dune. You'll see all the trucks out there and if your early....well just hang out till you see everyone else.

    So I'm going to limit this meet to 25 trucks. I also have a couple buddies with Jeeps that might come and show us all up as well but we will see. I limiting it because I don't want to be spending hours on a single obstacle so everyone can get over it. It doesn't keep it fun for everyone else. Those of you with CB's we will set the channel when we all get there in the morning.

    Drinking and driving in any way is always a bad idea. Just water and Gatorade for me! BTW, bring sun block, you'll be out in the sun a while, I was when there were just two of us.

    Sweet. And for the meet, again, make sure to bring Lots of water, sunscreen, extra fluids for the truck, tools, recovery equipment, etc.

    Hey Ripcord......you want to get your bumper taken care of at some point and re-weld those shocks?

They were nice enough to let me try out a Camaro SS they had sitting around and i cannot say enough bad things about it. My old 325i was faster than that pos shit even my taco could give it a run for its money. Me and the salesman were laughing pretty hard and its piss poor performance lol.
