    Carnac Update

    As with here. In fact a local brew pub chain uses only RC products. Lots of people get a confused look after asking if RC is ok when they asked for coke/pepsi

    Minor 5 Ton Build

    With how tall those tires are your best bet for bed+tractor is probably a converter dolly. You already have the fifth wheel setup.

    816 wrecker boom height?????

    Yea, he's right. finally figured it out. 12.7 to the pivot point on the boom. so measure from the ground to the boom pivot and add 12.7. That assumes 18ft boom extension with a 45 degree angle to the ground.

    816 wrecker boom height?????

    well its a right triangle, so we know all three angles and one side length. I thought about it for a long time, but that trig has been un-used for a few to many years.

    Tested fuel burning heaters today

    Thanks for the great logging of your work. I dont have a MV much less a fuel powered heater but i think its great that you take the time to share all that info. When the time comes (and it will) that i have an MV and want to mess with the heaters, i will surely appreciate this thread as a reference.

    sand blasting options anyone? HELP!

    i bought a 50lb bag of glass bead for 20 bucks from an industrial supply outfit in town. I would imagine a bag of AO (aluminium oxide, more suitable for steel and rust) would be even cheaper... But feel free to use whatever. Pressure pot and a huge rented compressor is the best way. Thanks for...

    california historical plates

    you Californians always seem to make everything way more complicated. I also belong to a large gun forum and hear about all the ridiculous laws regarding firearms, unfortunately for them there isn't a loophole :razz: For only 25 dollars though, i must admit i wish Oregon did something like...

    Pre-lub starter on cummins

The basic kits have a manual valve on the end of a cylinder, the fancy ones have...
