    So dumb

    Only a couple of brands execute sand cars well these days IMO. SCU (new owner) is really doing some amazing things. Alumicraft and Funco are also works of art. If it was me; I would do molded carbon bodywork (super light and saves the ridiculously time consuming fab work for an aluminum body...

    Weddle Transaxles in GT40

    I thought Mendeola was supposed to do the road cars and you guys were the 'offroad' guys when you bought them out? Am I totally wrong?

    2024 F450 leveling kit questions?

    Just got a 2024 F450 and want to level it on 37s.  It would be really nice if it rode halfway decently.  Any recommendations for a front leveling kit?  Carli? BDS? Wicked? Stryker? other?  Do I NEED new coils or will a space be fine?  Obviously I will do the drop radius bracket, track arm...

    solar/inverter questions/advice for new toyhauler

    Looking for advice on a new toyhauler that I bought.  It is pre-wired for solar and has a 1200w inverter.  It has a 20 cubic foot residential fridge, 5000 btu electric fireplace/heater, microwave, etc.  We only do off-grid/dry camping and I want the dealer to add some items before I pick it up. ...

    mounting dirt tires on beadlocks. Tips? help?

    Yes but the 37/12.5/17 dirt tires are ultra stiff and the 6.5" wide wheel is another picnic.  Sand tires on a 12" wide wheel are cake... built this contraption to squeeze the carcass......hard to tell in the pic, but it is sitting on two retaining wall blocks with a rag to protect the rim (just...

    mounting dirt tires on beadlocks. Tips? help?

    Been trying to mount some 37" dirt tires on bead locks and I'm soooo F'n fed up.  Cannot get the 'bead' to sit in the groove.  I've done sand tires no problems, but the 37" BFG mud terrains are another animal.  I even built a jig (out of 2x2 box tubing and threaded rod) to 'squeeze' the tires so...

    Contractors/Business Owners: thoughts about economy in '24?

    I feel that small business owners really 'feel' the heartbeat of the economy better than Wall Street 'experts'.  With that said; any contractors/small business owners on here and if so; thoughts on economy now and into '24? I spoke to two friends (one high-end detail guy in Nor CA) and other a...

    2016 Yamaha YXZ1000R turbo

    for anyone who has not driven one; the YXZ is by far the best SxS if you are an aggressive driver IMO.  No other SxS has the visibility and 'race car' feel that the YXZ does.  They have a similar feel to my previous Funco G52, just scaled back.   I would be all over this if I didn't already have...

    Head on in Glamis yesterday. Questions....

    Friend was involved in a head-on yesterday at G.  He was stopped and another car hit/landed on him.  Thankfully no one hurt (most important thing), but how does it work with insurance, who is at fault, etc?  'Supposedly' the other drive was under the influence of a 'white powdery substance'. ...

    Beam steering question

    Buddy of mine just bought this baja as his first offroad car.  I advised him to buy it. Seems very well built from the pics. I will see it first time on friday. Needs minor things like CV greased, new battery, valves adjusted, shifter adjusted, etc. I've never owned a beam car, but he says it is...
