  1. Perfect day for a beer! It is my wife's Birthday, so I have 2 reasons to party!
  2. Can't wait to see those trailing arms.
  3. You'd probably be better off just adding a large cap inline of the battery cable.
  4. Since I was about 10 years old I wanted a Vector or a Pantera.
  5. Why not go out and remove the bolt that is in the rear body mount on your truck and see what you have?
  6. I know when I measured for making my own winch bumper it didn't need to stick out that far (as far as it looks like your's does) to fit a 9000lb Warn.
  7. Check around some of the little airports up there and see if they have any old steel tarmac they no longer need.
  8. On the topic of Tracers, IIRC California banned the use of them because of all the brush fire issues out there.
  9. Sounds like crap cats, and piss poor location.
  10. How could stuff from the cat get sucked into the exhaust valve?
  11. The material, they say, will be as expensive as high grade steels. Wonder how expensive the processes will be? I know blow molding is an existing tech, but what needs retooled for metal?
  12. I have driving lights (55w) on my brushguard, and offroad lights (120w) on the roof. The roof ones are mountd off my basket. I didn't notice any substantial drop in mpg after mounting them.
  13. In best Peggy voice, Means good for the ladies!
  14. From the conspiracy theorist in me: The Government has finally released more alien technology they found in Roswell! From the metallurgist in me: Stronger than steel? What about sheer strength? Does it bend or break under stress? Given the alloy, what process would be used to attach it to similar metals? If it is malleable at low temp, I doubt we'll see it in engine manufacturing.
  15. Welcome to modern mass production and computer "perfect" quality controls.
  16. I know how it works, same as an old Jeep soft top. The piping (bead) is easy to find, I just can't find the channel.
  17. Where did the guy get the channel for your top? I've been looking for some for mt 88 chop top plan, and can't find anything.
  18. Actually the 88/89 SEs did have the dual fuel guages.
