Regreased my drive shaft bc the noise it is making was similar to what I read online. Well I looked at my carrier bearing and the fucker is gone. G-O-N-E. Fucking rubber piece is all that's left. Wtf? I just had it replaced awhile back. So now I'll pull my driveshaft and take it to a different place this time and get the whole thing rebuilt

One piece or get a pillow block bearing.

Sheered off my studs on my rear passenger tire. Coming home from a late night of working about an hour from home, I heard a bang, my truck got twisted amd my tire passed me while I brought the truck to a stop from 70 mph. In addition to needing a new set of studs, my backing plate has a new cooling passange. Carry on.

It seems that losing a tire and having it pass you on the freeway is a rite of passage here lol

Got the wheeling bug and bought a RTT. Got a brand new Kukenam Sky for half off so I couldn't pass it up. If anyone wants to know where it's a place going out of business and they are selling RTTs anywhere from 15% to 50% off

Depends

Either shit them or his ass ate the seat cushion trying to make sure he did not go anywhere! That is a rough string of luck with vehicles lately.

It was nutty!!! I was going 75-80 most of the way home - and was when the SHTF. I had a beer about 2 hours earlier and since I'm not a pro was a bit concerned. Then the Highway Patrol called me saying they can not find me where I said I was. I called AAA (not AA) and made sure they knew EXACTLY where I was. About 20 minutes later the Highway Patrol arrived. They told me to sit in my car. Then the cop comes up to my car and taps on the window. He looks at me and says, "What do you do for work?" I said real estate. He's looking in the back seat. I a couple of boxes of 9mm. He said, "Your not undercover are you?" I chuckled and said, "I wish!" lol He said that my plate didn't show up on the system and he said, the only reason that happens is when local and federal agencies don't want to be found. I told him to put a space between the first 2 letters - It's a HAM plate.

Or was it a 3 'man' tent!? I was once given a tour of a bitchin' home by this gay guy. In the backyard was a pool, a volley ball pool (or what ever you call it and a HUGE 12 man Jacuzzi with a big steaming volcano behind it with red lighting and water coming down it and misters all over the place. When he decribed the Jacuzzi he said, "...and here is our 12-man Jacuzzi and I do mean 12 MAN." Oh boy.

Very nice!!!

Just wipe down that ladder before stowing it. I have a couple of desert romping friends that hate them because sand can get in there and make them a bitch to close.

And at 16" per 'man,' I hope they mean midgets who are less than 56" tall. :)

One other bit of advice, you may want to put some SS on the area where the ladder lays on the top. That material is very thin and will punch thru if not careful. Maybe a piece of carpet or some-some. I have used the crap out of mine and continue to love it. :)

Yeah, I have read/heard about that. Looking to upgrade it once I set the tent up and investigate. Can't wait!

Well you can call the guy tomorrow and see what he still has. Put down a deposit!
