I finally got around to doing some work on the trailer over the weekend. It is taking me a little longer than projected but I have had quite a few interruptions. I returned the 9" wide fenders that I had originally purchased and bought some 10" wide ones so I could mount them directly to the...

Funny how they have us figured out isn't it?:confused: When I think of doing something else to make a "quick buck" my wife always tells me to stick at what I am good at and the money will come. She has always been right about that as well. It seems whenevery I take on something purely...

We have had it for about 7 years now and really don't have any issues. Not really any different than what we have at work, I really don't think there is much difference other than the customer service if you happen to have issues. We really haven't had any issues so I can't comment on their...

I have a deep respect for people who are able to make money in the real estate business. My dad dabbled in it just before he passed away with a couple of rental properties. He then had me do the maintenance like water heaters, stoves and all of the crap. I got my fill of dealing with rental...

No problem. I was like that at one point but eventually I just wanted to take a more active role in my planning and make my money do more for me than it was. When you get to that point where you feel comfortable and learn more about it I am sure it will click with you. I was as hard headed as...

I have heard the government is looking at taxing these percentages earned as income but I figured until it happens I may as well take advantage of it, while it lasts I guess. I had many people telling me that paying off my home early is not a good idea because "you need a tax shelter", but to...

I agree, we use more cash over the past 8 or so years. Mainly just for smaller amount transactions, I refuse to use my credit/debit for a cup of coffee or a burger/sandwich. However, if we go out to a nice dinner and for most of our larger purchases we still use our CC because we don't carry a...

Take this for what it is worth but you can do much, much better than with the target date accounts. Our company offers these as well and for the first several years I participated in one because it was a put money in and forget it account. Once I did some research and familiarized myself with...

The only reason my wife and I participate in a 401k is because our company matches dollar for dollar for the first 3% and then .50 cents on the dollar for the next 2%. So basically by putting 5% in they match with 4% equalling 9%. That is the only reason we are contributing to the 401k, we...

You mentioned after swapping axles. I am wondering like someone mentioned above about the calipers having larger volume and now with the stock master cylinder you are not able to fill the calipers and have enough volume for a firm pedal all in one push. If you pump the pedal more than one time...

I have used 14" abrasive cutoff wheels from Milwaukee, Norton and Sait and have had very good results with either. I agree with others, don't waste your money on the HF crap. Mike.

That is too funny. My wife and I saw that driving down the road a couple of weeks ago in the Layton area as well. Not something you see every day. Mike.

This is a great idea. Providing the date works when it gets closer I would be willing to attend/help. Mike.

Also, just FYI, NAPA auto parts now owns Henderson wheel so if you are in tight with your NAPA counterman I am sure he can help out with a better price from Henderson as well. That is what I did. Mike.

I am quite a bit further north but if you can't find anyone closer to ya shoot me a message and I can give you my contact information. Mike.

I have never heard of one being illegal or failing on a safety insection, unless the eyebrow or center bars block visibility. Then you may have an issue. Mike.

I too would encourage you to go a minimum of 6' wide as well. Personally, I have only had 8' wide enclosed trailers. Mike.

Great looking build. I see your truck around, I'll have to watch for your Cruiser now as well. Mike.

Thanks Bart, I appreciate that. Unfortunately on another forum I am getting verbally abused for these same welds. Even though I explain that this technique is more prevalent in the motorsports industry and I am crystal clear about that, I continually get the keyboard expert's whos...

Good question and one that is often answered incorrectly. Some people think that it is the silicone in the wire and therefore the -6 wire may exhibit more of it than the -3 wire. Incorrect, both the -6 and the -3 wire do the same thing. The next answer is that it is the copper coating on the...
