  1. more surface area contact doesn't = a rise in the coefficient of friction (the coefficient stays the same. the CoF of rubber on asphalt is 0.5-0.8). the amount of force that friction exerts is equal to the coefficient of friction times the weight of the truck. the amount of surface area in contact has nothing to do with it.
  2. hey, that's not too far from me only like 2-3 hours away. now i just need to know if working either of those days (i'll find out tomorrow)
  3. what's BBlean? is it like a skin for XP? it looks pretty good tho.
  4. did you install new a-arms? if not, then don't mess with your suspension until you've got the right parts and go get it aligned.
  5. plus they come with solid front axles
  6. i'm from a suburb by sac-town. i've seen a few lifted wd21's at my college (sierra college) but i don't think they're here on NPORA. it's sad. we should all gang together like those toyota and jeep guys do
  7. yeah, thanks for the effort, man i woulda been too lazy to get in touch w/ doug thorley or anyone else who sold those headers. it woulda been sweet tho!
  8. well that's nothing to brag about then! lol, jk. always good to hear that a Pathy outdoes some other ORV. yeah, some people just don't have common sense--whether it applies to driving or problem-solving or w/e. some ppl just don't get it
  9. you should check for it on your local craigslist or something. or ebay. maybe someone's stupid enough to try and sell it in the same area that you live in. then when you go to buy it from him/her you can punch him/her in the face and take your faceplate back. i know someone who got their dirtbike stolen and they checked craigslist after it was stolen and found an ad for the same bike posted like an hour after it was ripped off. some people are retarded.
  10. here's mine. 3+3 with stock legos and 31's, like you asked for oh and i got the coils from a jeep dismantler place for $20. and don't mind the oil stains on the driveway, they're from my dad's truck.
  11. lol@ one of the comments "this was when the word 'owned' was invented" rofl!
  12. 3+3=31's for me til i get enough money for some new tires/wheels
  13. i made it through this bank (with a stock suspension and street tires) that my friend in his toy (in the picture) got stuck in cuz he took a bad line.
  14. lol, why were you taking the picture while driving?
  15. one of the car salesman (i think he mighta been in charge of buying trade-ins) at the Nissan dealership offered me 5K for mine today. i asked him "just lookin at it, what makes you think it's worth 5K?" he said "well i just added a couple grand onto the worth so that i can get you to sell it to me" no way i'm sellin my pathy
  16. oh, yeah, i remember reading some crappily-made-up acronyms like those ones. none of them were too great or were too insulting
  17. i'd say something but idk what an interference motor is and i don't like how everyone has to hate on other brands. if you wheel your truck, then it's all good. i don't care what kinda rig you got, as long as it works good.
  18. neither do i. especially since i took 3 weeks off from work, but i'm gonna charge it anyway! lol. this'll be worth it.
  19. yes, buy the Thorleys! i'm in that group deal and we're waiting for a few more people to commit to buying them with us so that we get the discount. and welcome!
  20. hm, without pulling off my door panels to check out the wiring(which i probably won't get around to doing), from what i can remember from installing my front speakers you have to unscrew the lock, unscrew the one screw holding the arm rest on, slide the arm rest towards the back of the vehicle, remove 2 other screws, and pop off the little shroud around the door handle (it pops off when you try and remove the whole panel--don't worry, you won't break it) and remove the whole door panel by pulling the bottom end away from the door then pushing up on the panel (cuz it kinda wraps around the body where the window goes in) and i think that's it. mind you this is coming from a guy with an '88
