Im part Cherokee..... I say put a dairy man or dairy farm on the cover... where the !!!! Do they think butter comes from anyways.... lol 

So the guy with the loader showed up ? (Chat room talk) for those who are wandering what I'm talking about.... see what ya miss not coming to chat to hang with us ? Lol. @bcsman that was the other half of the idea ^^^^ lol..so far it's worked.. n noone the wiser..... 

I'm in just to bump entries numbers / competition up..... already made my choice...posting the pic / info later. 

Ya.....its like jeep said... newer stuff isn't any good, that's why I keep this I have, but I'm reminded of someone here who had a fire due to a battery charger incident.. I don't recall who, maybe they will speek up... that's good enough reason to get shed of it... (add to the scrap load)

Have had this charger for a long time, and all of the sudden it doesn't work.  Comes on, hums, but doesn't charge. 

 

I also have my grandfather's old Schauer charger, and to test each of them, took my voltmeter, attached clamps, and turned  on. 

 

Schauer, which works, the voltmeter showed about 12.75 volts.

 

Did the same on my Schumacher, and nothing.  If I turn the switch from 2 amp to 10 amp the voltmeter shows a bump to 4-5V for a second or two, that's it.

 

Any idea on troubleshooting this thing?  Might not be worth fooling with, but I always try to fix something before going and buying a replacement, especially with all the garbage being sold now vs 20 years ago.

 

 

I have one like the Schumacher..... What mine does is kinda like yours... it drops when the switch is toggled for a few seconds.. then it's starts charging again... (sometimes) does it both ranges..(and at times) .. it won't hum or show any signs of life (no gauge needle movement) until it's clipped to the battery poles... it's seems to work better depending on the outside temp... I'm thinking maybe a week solder joint, or sketchy switch But no odd smells or nothing... I don't use it un attended.. when it's acting right it charges fine...it's one of many reasons I'm looking for one like @Wheeler has ( NOCO 3500 ) I think it's a battery charger / tender / booster ?  3 in 1 it sure beats the battery tender jr by deltran... tuned in. 

Now that's Purdy slick... but I'd  take those stacks off.... it would look good  and prolly sound better with pipes turned out just in front of the rear wheels. 

Just imagine a country full of that last one......sheesh... what a mess..... It does have one thing good... more ladies for real men that are left...ive talked with a few...they don't won't wusses like that... and, I'm kind of surprised we haven't heard more from the female side... 

Ff.... I hear you on Derf... talk about a tough man..... heck of a amateur radio operator / educator too! I think he's got a 450es ? 

No windows ? .......

Think I about seen it all 

 

This is the largest fossilized human turd ever found. It belonged to a sick Viking in the 9th Century AD, and has been valued at $39,000".

The large, “precious” !, officially known as the Lloyds Bank Coprolite,

the word “Coprolite” simply meaning fossilized dung. This 1200 year old log that is thought to be the largest recorded in human history.

At 8 inches long and 2 inches wide, specimen was discovered, in York northwest England in 1972 by construction workers during the building of a Lloyds TSB branch, in an area once ruled by Norse warriors. It takes its name from institution Lloyds Bank.

 

Hey.... did you ever watch doctor hunter medical examiner review elvis's final autopsy ? It's pretty rough... so, I'm not posting a link, but it's kind of related to that ^^^^^ 

could be... infrastructure... comes to mind... but one time ? They take power.. there goes refrigeration .... sept in colder climates..... it would be very effective... frightening actually.... least for some... cant live without food... that's what I keep waiting for... they hit that, and more then just eye brows will raise...

Trying to understand this ^^^^^^ comment >>> Good thought about rodent damaged wires  —-  So you don't think a 2000 model wouldn't have " rodent "  chewed  wires , what's the reasoning ? 

 

Maybe your onto something , you never know . I had heard a  couple of theories why rats , mice and squirrels like to eat wires. Read one that said  the wire coating that comes from overseas is made of some kind of plant base stuff  like soy. >>>>> Maybe they quit using soy base coated wires in 2000 ?   I would say a rat would chew a 2023 just as quick as a 2000 or a 1970 

 

 

Yeah.... like jeep said... I'm not too good with years....ha! I still think cars made in 00 are considered new.....(no telling how many times I've heard certain people >> shade for example << tell me get with the times..... haha! ) .although... in my opinion... they might be old but much better then what's coming out now...I bet those electric cars will targeted by rodents.... and I'd hate dealing with that kind of mess....just had another member say in chat his gas powered vehicle has become a target...for those bucktooth bandits... 

That view (crop ground / mountains) is my kind of thing! Like the wood flooring is it real wood n not tectured tile like in my bathroom flooring ? (Old pic)

Muffler clamps  have multiple uses .... it'll get you out the woods 

 

If that's an Xj jeep...rear (looks kinda like it from the sway bar / torsion arm)  .. yup.... mine had a knock at certain low speeds, and a hum when the t-joint settled to one side at higher speeds... drilled out the yoke holes.. tossed those strap / cap screws and went with Forman/help hardened u-bolts

My Mom use to cook  liver and onion  a lot when I was a kid , I  found a good recipe for it today 

 

 

  

Had my share too.... liver n onions..... ive never really looked into what variations of liver dishes there are...it's not a fave food by far.... but always been advised don't eat mature livers because of the medicine, growth hormones, etc that aren't safe for human consumption... calf liver only... for me...but I'd like a better dish with lots of stuff to kinda drown out that rich liver meat taste....I'll say this my uncle loved pig brains n eggs.... I'd try it, but someone would have to pay me ALOT to do so... I wouldn't even venture that on a dare...that one ranks right there with Yoo-hoo chocolate milk n sardines in hot sauce..... I don't mind tuna at all 😬 just a note... you need to loose weight ? Get those jokers in chat started on foods.......it will change your thinking quick......

If everything is tight it could be the pitman slack adjustment... I'm not too sure about the newer models but the older square bodies were bad about getting slack ... I'll dig more... I never like fords because of they. Role and hunt too much in the steering, least the light duties did ranger up to the 350 (one ton) ...

not following you ?, upper part ?..you mean the windows ?, if you look closely...you can see the plexiglass being held up with a wood turner on the side. all winodws fold up when in use..and fold down, locked shut when not using them.

No not the flip downs (windows) .... the space above ....yer chair.. but doesn't matter, a space that small won't make much deference. 

Looks great! You going to leave down the upper part open ?
