  1. I dunno but the fucken gopher lookin pictures with the glasses crack me up. Wasn't there one wearing a hoodie or some shit. Good times.
  2. Yep. If I fucked up and needed to take the bearings back out (like when I forgot to put the spacer tube between them), might as well buy some more bearings. Now its not a problem. The only problem I have is I usually end up pinching my fingers between the carrier and the brake hub shoulder when the axle drops through and I'm not ready for it.
  3. Is the $300 for towing the jetta from his house to the dumps?
  4. Reminds me of the time we called Dell's Tech Support Center. After going round after round of "Yes, I pressed the on button" "Yes I unplugged the battery" "Yes I pressed the on button" "Yes I read the owners manual" "Yes I pressed the on button" "Yes I unplugged the battery" "Yes I put the battery back in" "Yes I've read thet owners manual." If I could have reach through the phone all the way to Sri Lanka I would have slapped the shit outta some one. Actually its my own damn fault for buying them (2 of them) in the first place.
  5. Probably just enough room in there for the spark plug and a REALLY compressed charge of fuel.
  6. LOL FUCK YEAH! I could draw MJ's dick better than that in MS Paint. I just might.
  7. These guys nailed it. We have to magnetic particle inspect the welds and surface for cracks on the roller coaster spindles we make.
  8. If you mean the steel from the frame, let me check. This is weird, but I've cut my shock tower off my other frame and I might still have the brackets somewhere at my shop. I'll let you know later today. I did save some stuff I initially cut off of the frame, but I have thrown some shit out too.
  9. I have a shaved stock head that I'm thinking is around a 20cc dome. I run the high test pump gas with no problems. I haven't dared run anything less. I have the +4 timing advance too. You should be fine with high octane gas.
  10. Rond house vs. Stock, the majority is going to be the chain adjustment and axle alignment. There might be some weight savings between the steel carrier and the aluminum carrier. I know with mine, when I put the bearings in I don't have to pound the fuck out of them to get them in, plus they are better aligned. The axle will just drop right through both bearings unlike when I was using my steel carrier and I still had to hammer my axle in and out of the bearings, then beat the shit out of the bearings to get them out.
  11. I agree. More people need to be like him.
  12. Now is a good time to not say shit to anyone about it being stolen. Theives are stupid, and if you think its someone you know, they might just ask you if you've ever found out who stole it, even if you haven't told them. Its an old trick my dad said has worked for him. If its someone you don't know, chances are you won't ever know who did it. BUT if they knew where it was in a shed/garage, I would say it was either someone that knew you, or someone that has a friend that knows you, plus the fact they didn't take anything else. They were after something specific, not just smash and grab type shit.
  13. As long as I live, I will never ever EVER forget the Skinny Post. I still laugh from time to time when I happen to remember it. That was the funniest shit ever.
  14. I was hoping the are cubs turbo friendly question was going to take off. Or the are trails cub friendly question.... I'm gonna go have another beer.
  15. If they've been run you can't get them chromed. The shit that gets built up inside the pipes will get etched off in one of the many acid baths and will ruin the dip.
  16. I'll be opening that later when no one is looking then.
  17. Great. Now what am I supposed to do without great deals and incentives from WalMart?
  18. I dunno man. I know on my swingers everything lines up. Im actually quite surprised that you are having that problem with a lonestar swinger.
  19. Wow what an ignorant hippie. He needs to just go get his fuckin frisbee and his hackey sack and his StarBucks coffee and get the fuck outta here. He's one of those people that couldn't understand shit if he was sitting there with a mouth full of it. I think his mom should kick him out of the basement and take his computer away.
  20. Depends on the day. Helmet, goggles and gloves always, either long sleeve riding jersey or a tank top, always pants, and my work boots. I also wear 2 pairs of socks when I ride.
  21. I agree. Bought some a-arms off him some time ago. Great to do business with!
  22. I'll be enclosing a 5000 word essay on why I need parts from you when I send out payment today.
  23. I had one once, but I choked the fucker to death when I was about 14.
  24. Right now with the standard 6007 bearing, I have just under .375 in each direction for a total of about 3/4" Thats the most you can get with this particular design. I've compared mine to others and they are all the same. Like you said, go putting a bigger bearing in there, and you run out of material to put it in, so you have to move it more towards center. There is only about .100 to play with there anyway.
