Keystone State Thread

For me the Hardest part of any project is just getting started ... Once I'm started ... I get Motivated ,
Sounds like your Happy with your progress Scrapple ... That's all that matters and you will be motivated to move to the end result : )

 

Thanks. Its usually more finding the funds or a place to do the work. College has made me find the best use of money on my truck til I'm done

 

whats up philly

 

This thread has reminded me that I need to cook some scrapple tomorrow.

carry on.

 

The crime rate?

 

It is!!!

couple yrs back I worked at Aker Philadelphia Shipyard eeeekkekekek

 

I only go into the city in the daytime.

 

Charleston's crime rate is higher. Because we have less ppl. What a shame.

 

Last week as I was doing the broad street run I thought to myself, this is the most time I would ever like to spend walking(running) on the streets of Philadelphia.

 

This guy does them and he's in mass . Might be cheaper then shipping to Cali .

thanks ill have to check him out

 

i was in philly last summer to try genos and patts for the first time. getting there was a nightmare and i almost ran some sort of mix match honda civic over lol bitch came out of my blind side and tried to get ahead of me coming into a one way.

 

If you guys think philly is bad, harrisburg is on par with it

 

That's why I stay out of Philly except for work.

 

I live just north of Philly but work in the city and hate the morning/evening obstacle course I have to drive to get to/from work. I've only lived here two years but after living here a couple of days I quickly understood why my car insurance doubled when we moved here! I have a '99 Corolla as my commuter car so I can save the Taco from most of the idiots in the city. I've lived all over the world and am confident Philly has some of the worst and most aggressive drivers. If they don't destroy your truck on the roads, they will in parking lots and garages ... just take a look at all the bumper damage and door dings throughout the city. I agree with the above on the crime ... our Security Dept at work told us a couple of weeks ago there were over 1,000 felonies committed over the past month within a one mile radius of our building.

 

Hmmmmmm..... wonder why haha

 

Spent one last day in Tinkerville ... Sunday ... Then back to work ... The work I don't care for ... Working on my Taco is much more fun ... Not really considered work : )
Anyway I remotely mounted my solenoid in the engine compartment up near the power steering unit ... Custome made cables to connect the winch to the solenoid ... Wired in a Blue Sea disconnect switch .... The BIG disappointment is that when I went to wind the synthetic line on the drum was that the winch would start ... Then the motor seems to take off (disengage) the drum Stops till the RPMs come down after letting off the switch , then roll again ? I had to keep Bumping the switch until all 90' of rope was on the drum ! ?
This seems to me that something is F-ed up in the Brand New Winch !
It's a Talon series Superwinch 9.5
I'm hoping like hell I don't have to pull that winch .... That's a job all over again

Anybody have any ideas ? Maybe this is normal and the winch needs a load ?

BTW ...went out last night and checked the LED's .... Whoa !! They are Bright .... I'm sure I'll get lots of high beam flashes at me when I use them .... ... Monsters 4 bulb

 

hey this ghetto is my home Glad I'm moving in 2 weeks!

 

There is nothing wrong with the city, the girls and I are there all the time between Olde city, Independence hall, south street to Penns landing. I think it's just like everywhere else in the world if the people are junk your neighborhood will be junk.
