  1. Ya.... your right, back then gas wasnt....so high, well that is when you think about it now... lol! Heck i recall when it was 1.75 (if i recall right) a gallon...yet people complained even then it was WAY high....lol!.... aaaanyways.... i was thinking about what you said drivetrain damage, n i did remeber my grandfather had a 4x4 k20 3/4 ton white lwb 350 plant, granny low four speed 205 t-case and gave it to my father for use as a fuel truck.... we used it to haul tools parts and red diesel (high sulfer tax free farm fuel) .... that truck would slip the clutch if you looked at it side ways... lol! Ended up being the imput shaft on the transmission... the end that goes into the pilot bearing in the fly wheel had snapoed off... it had never been wrecked, and noone could come up with any idea how that happened, BUT! that truck was a very rare truck... what im getting at it, it was very strong right from the factory, but it was a plain jane custom delux ... no air.. but had heat..someone said they thought because it was so torqy.. that might have been the reason.. i dont know myself, but i know we had a old co-op c-65 366 cid industrail engine.. 5+2 drivetrain....we couldnt keep drive shafts in that beast... it would twist them right out...but it wasnt used enough later on to ... justify spending the money to beef up a heavy driveline..good luck and im tuned for this project you have going on.
  2. That particular model 4x4 k model 10 (grany low four speed / free wheel lockout hubs) was a rare animal here... ive lived here all my life (tn) i only saw one... k10 short...actually... it was a mint green k1500 gmc... does yours have the 205 transfer case as well ? I believe Jeep also likes those square body models.. me myself had a lwb white... 350 4wd, grany low four trans, 205 t-case...i put camper specail spring under the back end.. for 5th wheels (goosenecks) 4:56 gears.. n the transmission i replaced with one that came out of a one ton wrecker 6.2 diesel... the defrence between the gas version 4 speed verses the diesel four speed was a big gearing change... but did nothing for gas milage...
  3. Thank you Bcs, Best wishes, and a Happy thanksgiving fellas!
  4. I got macs email addy ill drop him a letter other mias @Macarena Man @Goober @Manny @Larry Im sure there are some ive not named, but ill be looking for more very soon @m_quick showed up a few days ago, after being gone for a while, its also been a while for @Melatv
  5. Looks good, you might top it (prune it back) this link / tube will explain it better then i can, but trust me this works great, we did this with tobacco plants... it increases the leaf weight and size which = more $$$ , it also helps keep the plant height lower, which equals ....a plant less vulnerable to physical damage due to storms or wind, it also is over all healthier for the entire plant, and what the topped blooms were taking away is then used to encrease fruit size, and yield, its also used by the plant main stem > (Axil) AND, in the circle is what some refer to as a sucker keep those cut or snapped off, before they get too mature. Topping a tomato plant Tube
  6. I got your update...Lol! Just caught this.... i can hear the headlines now... wilson disqualified for advertising.... haha! We nailed goober on that sticker mistake.. lol! Well....NOW.... im now on that list...well on the good side i made a rare list, that bad side ? Wrong list !!!!

  9. @bcsman do you see those banners (both red n green on his laptop screen shot) that's what I saw on mine when things went south , never mind my post guys, thank you for the screen shot @802TRX
  10. Your welcome brother.... Well.... sterling .... and him had a rival.... between them, but ya he was racing on the edge... always did... you know the old saying bout d e.... people ether loved him or hated him with a passion... lol... there was NO middle feeling about him....several death threats were directed at sterling afterwards ... I should be a fan... because he's from my area.. my op met him n I think coo coo... my pops raced those midget cars (motor cycle powered) n got to know sterling... along with a few big wigs here... I never did care for sterling all that much.. I recon I became a d e fan at a very early age... of corse ... pop was to, but also liked sterling... when Elliot came in things changed..big time...with that super fast Ford ...... least we can agree to disagree about petty... lol hey you gotta have some feelings about petty taking bubba under his wing for a short time... because everyone new that whole thing was all fake n why petty would support him... well I don't know...anyways... it's racing whether on the track or off the compitition was always green lighted....
  11. One of my friends updated..... spotted a Pete resembling (not those silly tall turned out stacks) this one go down the road ... well first I heard the jake... i could see it was loaded with shell corn...the hopper didn't resemble a Wilson. could have been a Tempte...Sweet rig....

    Weather

    Been overly nice the last few days we were talking in chat .... n someone mentioned a change coming.. ya those tiny winters (in no particular order) dogwood, locust, blackberry, and so are about us soon here in the southeast....going to be another pleasant day here, hole the same for everyone else.
  15. M_quick! Good to see ya.... I've not been keeping up too close, I've been recording most n watching them at a more convenient time...I've noticed the last cup race didn't record (Phoenix) the thread will comeback.. no worries there....I would say I'm not impressed at all with bubba..seems he's trying to take on the same racing attitude as THE MAN Dale sr....I don't think I'm as opinionated about petty backing bubba at the start... as I was... still think petty made a mistake... so I'll just stop there on him, but he's no longer the king... (I never considered him as such) Dale sr... ruled the track as king... petty was good but Dale was king....king lives on the edge pushing the envelope... n that's just what. Dale did.. sadly cost him his life, but the legacy lives on.
  16. Hi Jcz, Welcome to ATVH.
  17. Ya .... this to >>>> Poor little car.....lol
  18. ¿Tiene un manual de servicio y muestra un código en la pantalla? es posible que tengas una charla con too deep, jeep o retro, eso es en lo que puedo pensar ahora mismo, Nunca he tratado con modelos más nuevos así que... Is it flashing a code on the screen, and do you have a service manual? I would chat with @toodeep @jeepwm69 , or @retro that's who I can think of right at this moment.
  19. I've seen them at tractor supply also... if I recall right ? Sierra Is or used to be with the rail industry ? Maybe in cummnications ? I believe something about it posted in here.
  20. Hello, I hope you can help me, I am very desperate, my 04 rubi drowned in a river last year, it starts up and everything is normal, the idle is fine and it runs without problems and without dying, I can open the accelerator as many times as I want and it will continue to work normally The gear position D1, D2 and ESP appear on the screen, although sometimes it flashes and then stabilizes again, but when I change gears from N to D or R it simply turns off and turns. it goes out even without touching the accelerator as it appears in the video, now that when I open the accelerator in D or R it dies faster, I have replaced the angle sensor, the carburetor, I emptied and cleaned the fuel tank, I changed the throttle valve fuel, I have changed the oil at least 5 times for a deep cleaning, I changed my voltage rectifier, coil, spark plug, battery, I'm tired, I just can't find the solution since May last year, I'm really desperate about this Bienvenidos a ATVH, alguien estará en breve
