    Max Moment and Shear On axle

    I think that is the shortest axle I have ever seen - are you building a remote control crawler? ;)

    Archived What trails you running this year?

    If the trail is identified as exclusive use and there is an RR4W run scheduled, no, you're not allowed to do it. My advice is that you select a day and a trail that does not conflict in any way with the RR4W event. You might not like it, but as a guy who has towed my jeep over 2000 miles...

    Tire width question

    If you use a wheel width that is too narrow for the tire, you will indeed reduce the efficiency of your footprint - at any pressure (rock or road). Will it work? yes. Will you really see a difference? It really depends on your skill level and knowledge of technical rock crawling as well as...

    35x12.50R-17, Xterrain Tires + Wheels

    Hey, thanks for my nightly entertainment. This dude is just the kind of guy who will have huge success in destroying his own name and his company. I wonder if he learned these marketing techniques in school?

    Potato Salad Hill?????

    The cool thing about that is my nephew was actually excited to get up and help out. It was important for me to get into his head the value of giving back. Sometimes, all you got to do is give a kid a little direction and he'll run with it. I'm glad she's using that photo. In 2008, I...

    Headed to Moab Feb 16-20th

    That route from bernalillo (North of Albuquerque on hwy 550 or hwy 44) is a well maintained road. It is mostly four lanes (two each way). The road was redone into 4 lanes about 5 or so years ago. That will take you to Bloomfield or Shiprock. I think it is safer to go all the way to shiprock...

    Gran Torino

    Yeah, I knew nothing about this movie before logging on to moviefone.com to see what was up at my local theatres. They didn't even have a writeup on it, only that it was starring and directed by Eastwood. They did have a trailer so I did watch that. GREAT MOVIE! Some of the acting wasn't...

    Pic's from Alcan Highway

    Cool photos Ollie. That's a trip you'll never regret. You'll remember it fondly one day when you find yourself in a spot where you don't have quite the same freedoms you have now. Back in June of 1993 I rode my Yamaha FJ1200 from Los Angeles to just north of Seattle, then I put my bike on a...

    Headed to Moab Feb 16-20th

    Not to put a damper on your trip, but I traveled out for EJS from Greenville, SC in 2007 (march maybe?). No problems on the way out to Moab - weather was great!. However, on the way back, when I got into Albuquerque (stopped for gas), it started with the snow. I spent the next 5 hours or so...

    Air gauge questions

    Generally a better quality gauge will have better calibration from the factory. also, they will be designed to be adjustable so you can get them calibrated at periodic intervals to insure their accuracy. I've purchased truck tire gauges (up to 150psi) and had them off by as much as 10psi...

    Where would you live?

    I won't discourage any of you in doing this (i pretty much did this for the 5 years I lived in Utah), but it is a very different lifestyle. There is no 'run to the store' stuff. You have to be organized and if you forget to pick something up, it waits until the next time. To the OP, if you...
