  1. Great with a wheelie bar, 4 link traction bars, and slicks, but for street duty... not enough weight to actually use all of that power until you get up 30 - 40 mph.

     

    The pictures also look funny. Fake?

    Well it's independent rear suspension wich means there is no way you can 4 link it and no way to use traction bars.

  2. Yet one more reason not to buy mcgoofys crap my brakes worked perfectly with my belltech spindls the only problem I had was the backing plate was slightly rubbing so I got in there with a screwdriver and a small pry bar and moved it away a bit.

  3. I would have to say 3 years is about the limit on these cameras because I had one and my mom had one 3.2 mega pixels the A70 to be exact and both of them went out after about 3 years but we had a different issue than you. We could see pictures on the card on the screen on the back but when you took a new picture it would take a blank picture like the shutter wasn't working. I replaced it with the A630 8.0 mega pixel and I must say this thing takes amazing pictures and it was cheaper than the A70 was.

  4. i think Jonmalibuss is just asking why did you post this....lol not why did you get on it

    Well I was confused because it says convienience store so I was misunderstood about taking out one of the pumps. I was trying to think of how you could take out a pump on the vehicle.

  5. :withstupid: The first thing that popped into my ind was you been photoshopping because that 3rd pic and looking at the front wheel well made me think that. Hey My Bad

     

    Good looking truck :thumbs:

    I just looked again and if he says the third pic isn't a photoshop he's lying to us because you can clearly see where the pic has been modified.

  6. I was on my way to my Uncles house from Rancho Cuamonga to Thousand Oaks and I had to get off the 210 freeway at foothill going west I jumped on it when I realized I was in the wrong lane getting off the freeway. I am assuming this is when the A/C belt decided t fly off. I had to get gas and got back on the freeway I then noticed the A/C didn't work it wasn't hot enough to need the A/C so I didn't really notice it didn't work. This drive is easily an 1 1/2 hour drive. we sat in traffic on the way back and it took us 2 1/2 hours to get back and I had no A/C the entire way back and it was the worst drive I had made in a long time. I got home and opened the hood hoping to see the belt missing, but I found the A/C belt just laying there not on the pullies. I reinstalled the belt and the A/C worked fine.

  7. The d-max plant is in the usa and they are made here for the HD trucks and thats it. we also found a bearing that had a clerance that was too tight and started to move the babet on the bearing and it didn't look as if it was gonna last long at all. Just keep in mind this plant is run by GM because it is Isuzu and GM owns Isuzu just think GM can't spend a whole lot of time cleaning their engines to make them last longer. IMO if you found a collector car like lets say you got a new Camaro SS and you wanted to drive it but have it last for a very long time. I would say find one with nearly 0 miles pull have it trailered to your house from the dealer and pull then engine completely apart and lable everything to put everything back where it goes exactly then clean everything with extreme detail and reassemble it I will gaurante you wil avoid many future warranty issues with the engine or failures after warranty is over. This actually scared me when I saw this!

  8. I have read so many threads from many members about metallic flakes on the drain plug and it was guessed that it was just from break in. LOL I now know thats not the case and I am sorry to say but GM doesn't have as clean of a plant as you would hope for engine building. we just took apart a D-max that we got on a palet of 2 which is a brand new engine and they are built and run for a few minutes then checked for leaks before they are put in a truck. It came to us with oil in it and it was still clean like it was just put in the engine but on further inspection since we completely disassembled this engine we found a lot of metalic particles inside which had already worn marks into the crank/bearings. Just think this thing only ran for a few minutes. I am going to cut the filter open tomarrow and see whats in there. This is the reason you find metal flakes on your drain plug and the reason manufatures only offer a 3 year warranty because i'm sure much longer than that and the bearings/crank will have so much clearance your rods will start making noise under start up.

  9. You could get some reptile bark,and some moss..when you mist the tank also mist the bark and the moss,it looks realy good and holds the extra moisture to help out with humidity,and very cost effective,also converting over to half water helps the humidity alot.

    I already have moss and they said he is too young for bark because he could possibly eat it while trying to eat his food.

     

    Speaking of food I now know he can see color! I tried to give him a feeder gold fish and he wouldn't go near it even while it was flopping around. I had one that was brown and figured I might beable to trick him since the color was close to that of the crickets and he went for it and bit it twice but didn't seem to like it because he dropped it and kept licking then he proceeded to go eat two crickets :confused:
