Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

Ran Corral Hollow trail in Bear Valley yesterday. She's a beaut:

 

Yeah that is a cool light trail it's nice to get to the top and BBQ over looking the mountains.

 

Helloooooooo TW! What I miss in the last 2 weeks?

 

I almost tried to read the last 2 weeks worth on this thread but realized this was the BS thread and F that lol

Good to be back!

 

same i was trying to read 2 month of posts then im like why even bother its just the same bullshit lol

oh and congrats man!

 

Just push the "Mark Forum Posts Read" button and start fresh.

 

So... For those that commute...

Any tips/tricks on navigating the impeding BART strike?

Carpool is basically out of the question.

I've been working 6 - 10 hour shifts in Santa Clara, Mon-sat from 0600 am to 430 pm.

Nobody I work with really has the same hours and they're generally off before me or don't live close enough to make carpooling worth it. I live in the East Bay and leave around 430 am and getting to work is generally a breeze, it's the 237 e - to 880 north - to 238 at 430 pm that is terrible.

Any ideas?

 

Can't say I have much sympathy for BART unions anymore.

Anyway, you're already taking the most direct route. Anything that would get you there sooner last week will likely be crowded this week.

Can you work 12s or double up? The only thing I know about that 680 commute is it's very busy. And I'm not sure it'll get better after hours as whoever it is controls the carpool lanes is talking about extending the hours which will extend the pain for non-carpool commuters.

Good luck Ryan.

 

I charge $60 an hour

I clocked my winch today and now it won't turn when its engaged and spins crazy fast when not engaged, i took it apart and can't tell what the fuck i did, any suggestions? Its an engo 10000 Only Other Thing I Did Was Remove The Clutch Lever.

 

Shhhhhhhhhhh.

 

How do you mean "took the clutch lever off"? And how did you rotate the winch?

It almost sounds like you did not reassemble the clutch handle correctly or when you rotate it you aren't properly engaging the clutch. Assuming all you did was remove the lever and re-insert it, you probably didn't get it oriented correctly (the position it was in before) which prevents the clutch from engaging. There's also the possibility you didn't properly connect the clutch assemble to the brake shaft assembly.

I would start by downloading an exploded view of the winch. Then check to make sure the clutch handle is properly installed. If that doesn't solve the problem, then if you clocked it by removing the tie bars, remove the tie bars and check to make sure brake shaft is correctly installed in the clutch assembly.

Good luck.

 

Just Took The Screw Out And The Lever, It Was Getting In The Way WhenI Was Building The Mount. i Rotated it By Taking The 10 Screws Out On The inside Of The Gearbox And Rotated It.

As Far As I Can Tell There's Only One Way The Lever Can Go In. You Might Be Right About Clutch Assembly CauseI Really Can't See Why It Wouldn't Work. I've Disassembled Warns With No Problem, This Is Similar But I'm.Fucking Stumped. I'll Try Your Suggestions Tomorrow, Thanks!
