Screw OSHA, no way in hell I'd get into a ditch that deep without a box!

 

Lucky for me the soil was fairly dry and well compacted. Look at what I do for a living, I've done way dumber things.

 

Where on cape and for how long. I am a 1/2 hour from the canal. The town I live in has a high water table also and we got water in the bathroom area a couple of times till I extended the system. I have a sump in the lowest point as well as perferated pipe around and it still came in when we had a heavy rain for a long time with a winter melt.

 

The news said something about 9+ inches of water and we are totally dry. We used Seaside Basements for the work

 

Drainage is everything. I don't know why people don't insist on an under-slab system which ties into a perimeter drain and out to daylight or a giant drywell.

Good example: My brother was buying a house from a developer when the house is being built. I was overseas, so I send him an e-mail and tell him to insist on drainage before the footings get poured. He ignores my advice. He goes back to see the progress after the entire foundation has been poured and it's a swimming pool. I tell him to walk away from the deal. He ignores my advice. I get back from Iraq to see this new house, and shit a brick. The whole area (8 house lots) that has been developed is flat as a board, zero drainage for surface water. His basement is wet. His sump pump runs damned near 24/7/365. He had to install a generator to keep his basement dry when the power went out. SMH...

Any of you guys looking for a good deal on some sliders, there's even a cheap winch in there.

 

So true. When we were looking for our house we knew the table was high and everyhouse that listed a pump we eliminated from our "take a look" list. Hind sight being 20/20 we should have done a house with it already done. I have mine pumping to the driveway which is on the downhill side of the house.

 

Wow hell of a sale

 

The only thing I worry about now when it rains is my septic tank filling from ground water. We have a oneway valve installed to help eliminate back flow into house

 

I'll climb in there with a box, make mine Aurora Snow or Jenna Haze..with a side box of Bree Olson!

 

At least you will die with a smile on your face.

 

Ok there is the set up who is gonna hit it out of the park

 

You got King springs, right?

 

Good view

 

And she'll die of blunt force trauma to the mid section?

 

Did you get them from Icon? What is the rating? I am pretty sure I'm gonna need since I'm planning on a plate bumper and winch plus running full skids and the Apex sliders seem to weigh a shit-ton too--not fun lugging them in and out of the garage when I was coating them

 

Is it June or not? This weather blows...

 

I cheated on my truck today. I know pretty much everyone here thinks Heep is a 4 letter word but I just had to see more about this at the AEV site:

80-120k though, yikes!

 

Hyannis till sunday. For my stepsisters wedding. I pretty much have all day tomorrow to do whatever. I wish there was some trails around here that i knew of.

 

That's Rob, I think Denis' signature pretty much sums up his opinion on Jeep. Personally, I'd definitely consider one of those if it hit the market at a reasonable price. I'm already considering a Jeep Unlimited when it's time to turn the Tacoma in. That Brute looks awesome. I wonder why they don't hit production. I think you have to buy an Unlimited and then buy a kit to have one, that's why the price is so high.
