  1. i left Florida to go to Michigan to be near my parents for awhile. Michigan has seen a decrease in population over the last 10 years. the economy here is terrible, the morale is worse. i explained to my parents this may be temporary.......on the bright side...houses are cheap!!
  2. i know he wont be happy to hear about another stator failure....
  3. i never had the opportunity to meet him, but, he looked like a happy and healthy young man. sad news indeed. prayers to the family....
  4. 30 bucks. i doused them with a hose, then let the rain have its way for about 2 hours. completely dry interior. im going to bury one of them at BOL.
  5. they are a drain on a stock stator. i had these already. opted to spend some serious cash and got lights that actually functioned and drew less power. of course, ive upgraded the stator....i did say serious cash.....in the end, headaches along the way, it was worth it. good luck!
  6. im not sure. i went with low wattage/hi power led driving lights. the lights on my Bestem trunk are also led. i also have a Ricks hot shot stator and Shindigen r/r. so, ive upgraded lights and electrical all around. i did remove the hid headlight, i thought it was drawing too much.
  7. is it gps'able? if so, pm me an address and meeting date and time. thanks!
  8. on my 83 had a 2 wire, but i put a replacement 4 wire in. works fine.
  9. im storing ammo in them. but you can use them for whatever. they are very "safe" like.

  16. ok, thanks everybody for your help. i will try to ride it in a couple days.
  17. found this one on ebay...tell me what you think? i dont know anything about the 1700cc RS., thanks.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2006-Yamaha-RoadStar-Midnight-Silverado-XV1700-Many-Extras-New-Pics-Show-Winner-/261088395944?forcev4exp=true#ht_4223wt_1165.
  18. i also increased tire size. i want to purchase a 6x12 enclosed trailer, except, i want to get a dual axle with brakes. the weight difference is about 500lbs. i just wanted to be sure i was ok. i figured i would be, but i really wanted the brakes.
  19. 98 4.0 4x4. my parent OWN a ford dealership, i refuse to purchase a new 40k truck! sure things would be easier, but mine is paid for. i like that better.
  20. i think you should buy an airplane....and a cake.
  21. im over in the traverse area. actually south east of traverse.
  22. thanks everyone! i was just looking for a little more. i noticed when i was changing rear shocks that there were only 3 leafs. the specs call for a 4 leaf spring. i checked with the dealer also. not sure why one was missing. so i got some 5 leafs from general spring in kc. should be here in 2 more days. as far as axles...i have upgraded the gears to 4.10s, upgraded brakes to hd service. all shocks have been changed to hd ranchos with extra travel. other upgrades include trans cooler, bbk throttle body, jet performance module, accel coil, k &n cold air, 3 core radiator, power steering cooler, cat back exhaust, headers, and cast diff cover with extra capacity. over the winter, after i repair the second gear on the venture....i plan on adding a diff cam, some head work.
  23. im changing the original rear leaf springs in my Ranger. the stock spring is rated at 1050 lbs. the new one are 1750 lbs. 2 questions...1. will it change the GVWR? and 2. will it change the tongue load on the trailer? im trying to give it a little more towing capacity over stock. i know the leafs are for cargo capacity, but will it change towing?
  24. your in my neck of the woods! and on a blonde!!!!!
