Off Topic Anything 2023

Thanks @Slipperz and yes it is, race tuned right from the factory and it also has the adjustable power valve.

When you're mowing but you wish you were off road.

What ever happened to @Doug?

I am an enigma lol

I have a problem. I can’t stop buying ATV tires. I got a great deal on these 26x12-12 mudlite XLs. I should have them on rims tomorrow, I think I may try them out on mutt before they go to the GT6k

Carefull, you might turn into Sean.

It may be too late… I picked up this set for Hot Lap the other day. 27x9-12 Swamp Lites.




They’re not necessarily mine, but they’re still in the pile for the time being haha.

I just switched up occupations, so hopefully will remember to get around on here more.

I didn't even know these were a thing until I saw it listed on the local buy and sell, I snatched it up for $50 with the mounting bracket and manual even! It's 36"×16"×12".

Enigma bal-….locks I probably shouldn’t say the other thing on here.

So far we are a go for tomorrow! Loaded and ready! First time out since last NOV.

We actually got a brand new JD s160 from home depot, I guess my dad got tired of trying to coax the old crap into mowing the grass every time, so I came home one day and found this sitting in the garage:

It was bound to happen.  After riding today, when loading the tractor on the trailer, somehow the gate came unhooked off the rear lip of the trailer causing the right rear tire to fall and within a second, I was laying on my back with the tractor sitting on top of me.  OOF!  Just some minor injurys.  Some skinned places on my right leg, goose egg bruise on the same leg, and  a jammed right ring finger.  Outside that, just some aches and pains that could be from riding all day.




This happened with Bowser.  Tractor came out undamaged.

Oof mighty! Gotta be quick on the clutch haha. Glad you’re alright, and it’s great you finally got out riding!

When your tire drops out from under ya, there isn't any amount of clutch to help.  LOL  I'm surprisingly not as sore as I would have figured today.

Hey hey you finally got out for a ride that's awesome! I never drive tractors (or ATVs and dirtbikes) up on trucks for just that reason, I'm afraid of them flipping on top of me. Glad you weren't seriously hurt!

It was just to get onto the small red trailer part that got me.  Not the sketchy stuff to get into the truck.

Geeze eh, well lesson learned I guess!? Lol

Glad you’re ok mighty.

Sorry I haven’t been around here much, I started a new job last month and I work 10s. I’m usually pretty tired at the end of the day now lol.

I work 9's, I kinda know how you feel.

I work 9's now too 5 days a week, was doing 4 10's before this and it was great aside from the workplace itself! Lol

Hey y'all, thought I'd drop by to say I'm still around lol. I haven't been very active lately and unfortunately don't see myself becoming very active again in the near future, but I am going to try to keep my threads somewhat up to date as I like to have it all documented. I love going back and reading where all my projects have come and how much I've progressed. Still taking automotive college classes which are keeping me super busy. Also spending my free time wrenching on my own stuff and trust me there is LOT to get the threads up to speed. I'll be working on that for a while. Anyway I still exist lol.

Cool! Will you be able to use one of your projects for the classes?

I plan on bringing Alfredo in just for the fun of it one day but that will be more of a joke than anything. The vehicles on the other hand yes I can and have. I brought the Explorer in when I had it a couple times and the Eagle is over there now. If the guy still has that Malibu I'm gonna go get it soon and buy a motor for it and put it in over there. So yeah we use our vehicles sometimes to learn on

Check out this pile of carburetors at the atv boneyard! I only dug about halfway down looking for a carb for a buddy. Lots of good stuff in there.

Digging through a pile of carbs sounds like literal hell.
