  1. Thornbirds should be a great tire for the sand since they are so utterly non-aggressive in the tread area.
  2. Hmm. I see it just fine. :hmm:
  3. Meaning you don't see it? Or it just doesn't flow with the rest of the theme?
  4. He has Thornbirds, which should do well in sand.
  5. :needpics:
  6. I seem to be getting the hang of this. My next big project will be changing colors and images inside the styles. If you go into your "User Control Panel", then "board preferences", then "My board style:" you can choose black pearl, rainbow pearl, PS3, prosilver, or the default, subsilver2. I prefer subsilver2 and that will be the template I'll be using when I change colors and such. That may or may not filter over to the other styles, but that all depends on how much work it turns out to be.
  7. What's that saying? "A bad day wheeling is better than a good day at work" I've got pics of every time I've been stuck. And the time in the sand was a simple fix. I walked around and aired down the tires (like I should have done earlier but was too lazy to do that time). Then drove away (and did it without hitting that tree).
  8. I'm telling y'all my team is cursed. I picked up 4 injuries yesterday. I think I need to change my team name...
  9. Air down, air down ,air down. That's all you really need. And even a $20 plug-in cheapie compressor can air you back up. It just takes lots of time (and pay attention to the duty cycle so you don't over heat it). I myself prefer a Co2 tank as onboard air. Also I'm moving this to the pub unless you provide some pictures. :needpics:
  10. I've heard that the clutch components can be swapped from one to the other. Can't say for certain though.
  11. I used to own a real nice camera. Canon Elan 7e. Paid a lot for it. Ended up selling the body for all of a hundred. :( sigh... Film camera don't have any resale these days.
  12. Don't "think", know. Why do people install freer flowing heads, exhaust, and bigger throttle bodies? Stuffing a plug into the system won't help with power. But it can help with fuel mileage. Just imagine that you can't push the gas peddle all the way down. :yes:
  13. I remember this coming up a while back. One guy was indeed able to get a new 02 sensor on his under-100k mile truck while another could not convince the dealership to do it for his 200k mile truck. Don't get your hopes up if you've got a ton of miles on your baby, but I guess it doesn't hurt to ask. And if you want it in the DIY forum, I'd suggest starting with a fresh post explaining the recall stuff, not a post that starts with a question. You guys are uber lazy. :shake:
  14. Also helps out those of us that lost their star players in the first game of the season. And for the record, most weeks I have been using some decent players. They just play sucky as soon as they're on my team. :rant: Seriously.
  15. By reading the thread at the top of the pub, seeing what's available, and then PMing me with what you'd like. :thumbsup:
  16. If the truck is a 2.5L, then you might be able to rebuild the 2wd AX-5 into 4wd if you can get the right parts. If the truck is a 4.0L, then it's a Peugeot transmission and is best used as a boat anchor (or give it to someone in desperate need of a 2wd trans 'cause they blew up their own Peugeot). Go find an AX-15 or NV-3500 (if you can find a 3500 in your price range)
  17. A 4wd trans that matches the spline count of the t-case would help. I'd suggest AX-15. Does the front axle match the gear ratio of the rear?
  18. Does the starter relay make an audible click?
  19. On Monday. Although, I've lost to incomplete lineups before. :roll:
  20. I might win one this week. The other guy has 4 active players in BYEs and hasn't touched his team yet. :D
  21. There are companies out there that will make a leaf pack to your exact specs. Not exactly cheap though...

    New Look

    Yup, I finally figured out how to use FileZilla and upload a new style. When I get a chance, there are 2 more styles I have to load. And I'm happy to see the logo on prosilver.:D It didn't work right away. I'll need to load the logo separately for each style, so that'll be done later when I do the new styles.
  23. You guys are awful. :rotfl2: But seriously, I've seen far worse. I've lived across the street from a high school my entire life and his truck is only a 3 or 4 on my tacky scale (with 10 being the worst). I've seen old beaters that could have been a float in a parade. :yes:
  24. The new decals are not ready yet. But they should look like this when complete (a white outline decal of the club logo).
  25. General rules of thumb: 2.5L + 4speedmanual = 3.55 2.5L + 5speedmanual = 4.10 2.5L + auto = 4.56 You don't need to limit yourself to MJs for axles. There are plenty of XJs out there. :thumbsup:
