offroading without lift?
i have been on cranked suspen for over a year now and any camber was hardly noticeable. plus tire ware seemed to be even. lets face it, it will cost you practically nothing to do it and if you don't like it you can put it back in no time. i have to say though a lift sure is nice:headbang:

WA state trail info
--Jefferson County OHV area- There has been a /survey/ handed and emailed out so that the county can get an idea on wich site to push toward and what kind and amount of use a new OHV park might see. I will try and get that linked here. There will also be a Jeff. Co. "field trip" to Tahuya on Nov. 7th for county officials to see what could be expected from a new OHV park in their area. -- just curious to what it had to say.might give the county a call, drum up suport

drilled rim question, this is a hard one literaly!

drilled rim question, this is a hard one literaly!
so i have decided to drill out a 2nd set of rims since my first set was so successfull but i have encountered a problem. the rims I'm drilling out are made of chrome steel. the holes were a tad hard to drill out but my 2 stage bit managed to tear through it. but beveling the hole has become a problem. i have gone through 4 taper stone bits on one rim and still do not have enough counter sink. any ideas of what i could use:confused:

Taller front springs
some one once told me that front springs from a 80ish ford tempo would give you about 1in in lift and a softer ride...just cant remember who told me that:confused:

Attention pacific northwet guys...
you might get stuck but unlikely. just read the 4X4 FAQ. at the end they tell you how to handle mud. its not usually the rig that gets stuck, its the drivers ability that gets them stuck. so get out there and learn:headbang:

looking for quick float fix
my float sticks intermittently and i was wondering if there was something i could add to my fuel to free it. or do i have to tear the carb down? I'm a lazy sob so if you know of a trick, post it

swaped out a new starter and...WTF?!
it wiped off fairly easy so I'm guessing that its just clutch dust and after 190,000 miles i guess it should have some clutch dust on it. come to think of it this is the first starter Ive changed on a manual.

swaped out a new starter and...WTF?!
so i put in a new starter today. a common easy thing to do. but when i pulled the old one out the gear and surrounding housing was covered in what i can only describe as black soot....odd...so....any ideas what could cause that? i have changed a starter or two in my life and have never seen anything like that before. BTW its a 86 gl d/r 5spd:confused:
