    Newb from Arkansas

    welcome! these guys get down there a bunch. I did plenty of playing in Moab while I lived in Ut, but now I'm in SC. I take my annual pilgrimage during Easter Jeep Safari. Not the best time to go if you're interested in hard core wheelin, but a great time if you're interested in just seeing...

    My Terminal illness is no longer in remission...

    I hear that you can never fully go into remission. The best thing you can do is to feed the disease regularly with plenty of off highway adventures.

    Adventure racing kicks @$$!!!

    The official results have been posted. I was wrong. There was only two women to finish in front of me, thus 11 men in front of me. Still, I was 14th overall, and 12th in the mens masters. The guy who won the mens masters is 55 years old! He finished 23 minutes in front of me! There was a...

    Adventure racing kicks @$$!!!

    The sad part is, the guy who won the men's over 40 event last year was 54. I did not see who won this year, but it won't surprise me if it is the same guy. I'll know when the results are posted. One of the women was right behind me for most of the run. She was close, and I told her...

    Adventure racing kicks @$$!!!

    There is a mt bike race the end of this month. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to find these events. I found the Tsali challenge in a Triathlete magazine I picked up in Canada! Of course, it was the same edition that is sold in the US. It had a listing of many triathlon events throughout...

    Adventure racing kicks @$$!!!

    Since I found out about the Tsali Challenge in February, I have been stoking my self up for it. Running, mt biking and paddling (even bought a new boat). I've entered a number of road runs, and recently an 11k trail run (came in 3rd for my age / gender group). This morning was the event...

    My trip to Moab

    That should be called tie rod buster. I broke my tie rod on it one day. Thankfully, a group of Toyotas (mostly FJs) had an onboard welder and a small piece of angle iron. fixed me right up. I still have that tie rod and use it as a spare. Hickey probably remembers that one. He is the guy...

    Painting a rack

    I would find a quality powder coater. Often they have many colors available. It is surprisingly inexpensive. I did both my bumpers and some other little stuff for like $100. That included sandblasting to remove the old powder coat.

    Smart kid....

    :eek2::laughing::D:rofl: The worst part is, there are so many incorrect usages of this type I have seen on forums like this. Some (sometimes many) by people who have college degrees! I understand occasional typos and misspellings, but COME ON!

    cant get disk brake rotor off!!

    I had a stuck rotor on the front of my tacoma 2wd. I took a small torch and lightly heated the rotor (outside or near the bolt circle). Then I took a rubber mallet, and gave it a good whack...presto! off came the disk.

    looking for Scott Creasy

    You weren't accused of blatant name calling, there was another post that took care of that (which has now been deleted). You've provided the details RockMonkey asked for, so thanks. Good luck in getting this resolved.

    running :)

    I think everyone gets bored on a treadmill. I've taken up trail running and it is a blast. Not to mention it is more of a workout than running on the road. Good shoes are key! You don't have to buy the most expensive shoes out there, but replace them as often as necessary. Mix it up a...

    Tire do doo

    based on what I understand about the philosophy of BFG's parent company, I don't think you'll see (or have seen) the Krawler as a bias ply. That said, a radial tire can still be a radial and have a body ply with an angle in the 80's (pure radial has a 90 degree body ply).

    What was your first ride?

    :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl: My first was a '69 camaro "secretary's special" i-6 3 speed. it had been sideswiped, and by the time I sold it 4 years later, it was 13 different colors. I have always hated body work, and that car is part of the reason why. It was a good car...
