Well I got out yesterday for the first day of the year. Sunny and maybe 55 degrees. I had to go to the bank to get some money so I took the Sling. This is Daybreak park on the east fork of the Lewis River. It's nowhere near the bank.
Today I'm taking the truck and trailer across Washington State to pick up a '62 Mercury Meteor. Cute little hot rod. Maybe I'll post it up in the money pit thread...
Y'all have a great day!
I have already lost all legal remedy as evidenced in the contract of 1984 which resulted in a hostile takeover of said nuts. Subsequent attempts to reacquire said nuts have been fruitless without expressed approval from holder which can be revoked without notice. As the contract ages out both parties have agreed on a weekly consignment of said nuts for a length & time determined by the consignor. Hopefully this will explain my precarious position in this matter... yours truly... Nutless in the Mountains
Now that's some serious CoonBilly lawyer shit right there!
All I've got to say is:
If lack of access causes, or is a precursor to the formation of a negative impression of one's manliness, then a repositioning of the physical control of said nuts is pre-mandated by section 27(a) of the 1984 contract, placing them firmly in the hands of the original owner for a period of 5 minutes, after which they are returned to the nightstand indefinitely.
My bride has had my nuts in her nightstand for YEARS..... now you tell me I can epoxy em back on !!! Now is a fine time to tell me
You may have to petition for access and/or temporary custody.
Just do it like old Red and Green, use some duct tape, that way you can move it around whenever you like.
If you can't fix it with duct tape you're not using enough duct tape!
Thanks everyone now I am going to have to move mine. I am thinking the Velcro might be the answer as that seams a lot easier then putting those nuts in that location.
I used that location but just used screws with a drop of plastic epoxy on them. No nuts. That's how I roll...
I've always named my vehicles.
- Current SS is "The Force"
- Previous SS was "X-Wing"
- 1st SS was "Batmobile".
- Current truck is "Lily" (license plate starts LLY, not custom)
- Previous truck (2008 Chevy Avalanche) was "Ruby" (color was "Dark Ruby Metallic")
- 1st 2003 Chevy Avalanche was "Bad Avitude" (not a mis-spelling).
Makes it easier to identify them.
And I've only named one of mine. When my mom gave me her Subaru after she quit driving a few years back I started calling it Forester Gump.
Display Morewell I still don't have my truck back. I was told last monday that they just needed to repair one seal in the valve body and it would be fixed.
Friday rolled around and I got the call that it was leaking from that seal worse than when they started.
So I asked the Service advisor what they would do now. ....he said they didn't know..
So basically it's still broken the exact same as it was the day I dropped it off on November 9th.
I don't know what to do anymore. .....
Thanks so much, James! Really good advice and appreciate the referral to the texas dealers. Definitely worth the comparison.
I wondered if the luggage racks would work with s slingshade. That is too bad they do not. Hopefully someone will rectify that.
Love the Elvis quote too!
Neither the Baker racks nor the ones I make will work with the Slingshade without major modifications (meaning cutting on the Slingshade mount and some fabrication).
That's because they are all dead. Hell, I could play the drums better than they do too, but not better than you.
You picked up on that theme eh?
I wasn't better than Neil until recently...
I hope thats a marine grade sub lol
To remove water from speaker surface:
1) Turn it on.
2) Play Nickelback. 
BTW, You know EjFord is gonna win this just by any one of his dozens (100s?) of photos of bikini beauties in his SS....
That gentleman has more game than Kobe!
And I play drums better than Neil Peart, John Bonham and Buddy Rich!
That's probably why the OIL light is on. 45 PSI in 5th gear at 3,000 RPM. KABOOM!! Probably going uphill as well
Hey Phil! How ya been???
Missed ya man.
If Howard could see into the future he never would have said, "Look at the little monkey run!"
My girl friend often ask me how these Slingshot fair in accidents with cars and roll overs.
DJohnson I got rear-ended at a stop light and shoved into the car in front of me and the frame sustained minimal damage. The Sling was totaled because I was able to show frame damage but it was minimal (almost non-existent). If it was an uninsured accident I would have had no problem fixing the machine and riding it but I didn't want a branded title. I was able to get off the brakes and get slightly angled before impact so that helped. I can tell you that if I was on a bike, it would have been on the ground and I would have been on the hood of the car next to me, but that's because I saw it coming in the rear-view. I feel that the biggest risk in this vehicle is a side impact so I am overly cautious entering intersections because of that. Same as a motorcycle.
I don't know how us old guys survived.
I do. We're tough as nails...
Well I quit smoking 40 years ago and I am on the wagon. Life's a bitch!
I quit smoking 35 years ago and I quit drinking about six o'clock last night although I'm thinking about taking up drinking again...
As usual - the red one is dead last
Wrong again. He parked first...
Buy one get a free quick Jack
Illegal in 48 states. Check your local regulations...
Just as there’s no set definition for a “mass shooting”, there’s no set definition for what constitutes “an arsenal.” The MSM throws out words & phrases for dramatic effect. I’ve seen on TV where someone is arrested & OMG, they had “an arsenal!” (The “arsenal” consisting of one single shot rifle, a handgun & 50 rounds of ammo... Sigh. Seriously?!?!) I consider that “poorly armed.” SMH
A big-ass pile of snowballs is an arsenal if you only have one...
68 degrees and a beautiful blue sky day for riding!!
That's what I'm talkin' about!
EnjoyLifeToday my wife and I are flying down to your area April 5th through the 10th. We haven't figured out where we will be exactly but will be in the greater Phoenix area part of that time. We may or may not have friends from Idaho join us as well but I'm wondering if there is a day we could meet up for lunch or dinner. We won't be Slinging and we're not into swinging but would enjoy meeting the two of you!
sounds like a sad waste of good spray on liner. In few moths when it no longer runs it won't even be able to decay in a land fill. Not very ecologically sound.
You can always crush it and bury it in a Home Depot 'Let's Do It!' bucket.
I might be able to DIY the repair if I can figure out how to add a PVC nipple and pipe to a 90 elbow and then a threaded PVC adapter to connect to a ball valve. Hopefully I'll find some YouTube videos with tips on making everything fit in a small space. I'll be adding some pics later tonight.
If there was just an inch or two below the PVC-Metal joint, It'd be a lot easier to try and wrap the leak with FlexSeal Tape.
BKL I just saw flex seal in a spray can at Home Depot yesterday. I personally have not had satisfactory results with the tape and a permanent fix is always better, but it could be worth a try.
