  1. You really are southern!
  2. Souls of small children or your testicles.
  3. Did you split cases and do crank seals to?
  4. There are both link and no link variations out there. Typically based on CR500 either way.
  5. Did you split the cases and do the bottom end to?
  6. Pretty much seems like you know the O rings let go. That photo shows all the grey crud blowing between the water jacket and bore on the cylinder. Hard to tell if the scuffing is from ring damage or where coolant ran down. Coolant is actually quite abrasive when put between aluminum and steel.
  7. After re reading this, there are a few things I see. First, that^ is quite a bit of timing on a motor still cranking 160psi with exhaust work. Second, if you know what to look for, a leak down may not be a big deal. But to someone who is just learning these things like your self, it is worth doing your first couple times. You said there was "No need" to do a leak down since you knew it needed to be rebuilt. But a leak down would show you exactley where the failure is from. You are doing all this top end work, did you do new crank seals as well? I couldn't begin to count how many buddy's bring me motors they say they just rebuilt everything twice and still have repeated failures. I throw the leak down on it and it's a crank seal. Funny part, typically the crank seal that's puking is the same one that there are failures on.
  8. Yes/no. It just takes knowledge on what does what. You can even do castor as well.
  9. Guess it depends on the state. We've got plenty of two track trails. And most of our Atv trails aren't wide enough for SxS's here.
  10. Buy an old mini truck like a Ranger. Install a v8, long travel from camburg, and jump higher, go faster, and be happier for less money.
  11. Nice find! I fucking hate you...
  12. ^ That happens so much lately.... Glad you figured it out.
  13. Several shock companies have aluminum bushings. If you are concerned, find out what type of polymer the Fox ones are, and lathe your own out of that instead of aluminum. I would venture to guess the right aluminum would last much longer.
  14. I bought it off some hillbilly in Indiana. It's sort of MURICA!
  15. JEEZUS, just about everything on it is American made now. You fucks are free to be as cheap as you want.
  16. Yes. Even bought another Toomey used from HP2K. But I've certainly paid top dollar for top quality brand new units. And yes, buying foreign to save a buck makes you un American. Toodles...
  17. I own a Torch Works, PWR, and Toomey. So...
  18. I agree, but fuck Ching Chong.
  19. Don't feel bad buying quality shit. Especially if it's made here in the USA.
  20. I've got a set of each. (Ultra light for TT, and heavy duty trail use)Top quality craftsmenship on both. I bought a set of roll arms prior and sold them for Fireball stuff.
  21. Fireball FTW. Roll are pricey and heavier.
