Re: The Colorado BS thread
Starting to make the wiring for the miata. Using a carb350 so nothing to complicated I am starting from scratch with all the wiring though. I have two stop/tail lights, two headlights, four turn lights(one front one rear for each side), four side markers(one front one rear for each side), one horn, one light bar for high beams. I am going to try to figure out how to make a harness for those things that are standalone from everything else.
I hate wiring.

Re: The Colorado BS thread
It is just a daily driver. Plans are mild350, th350, gutted, caged, ~2000 fully wet ready to drive. Probably a 200 shot once it gets going and I get a new rear end.

Already is on coil overs and bigger sways as well as bigger than stock brakes. I will get some hawk pads eventually. It has 15x9.5 rims with current 205s but will get something taller and wider once I need it.

Re: The Colorado BS thread
Apparently I'm getting too old for this keerap.
Couple weeks ago, I was working out on the concrete RV pad removing a trans from a Dodge Ram and doing all that holding my head up while reaching way up and around things, pushing, pulling, etc......According to an MRI, I now have a bulging C5 disk. Since that day, I've had nothing but the most severe nerve pain I've ever experienced..... Makes my ACL and Meniscus tear and 6 mos of healing after surgery feel like a minor injury.
Narcotics aren't affecting the nerve, they just noodle me up and make me a useless whiny bitch.
Shoulder is the worst affected - it's like I have a dagger stuck through the round bone joint and the sharp tip is poking through into the rotator......... all the time. I can't sleep lying down in any position. I've been getting drug induced naps on the recliner at a specific angle.
Chiropractic electro muscle stimulation, traction and dry deep tissue needling have helped alot in staying loose without the narcs.
Tuesday I finally have an appointment with a specialist about getting a Cortisone injection.
My days of wrenching on the ground are going to be greatly limited now - I ain't going through this again. (hence the recent MJ liquidation ad....)
Yay.

Re: The Colorado BS thread
I feel you, Bro. My right shoulder will flare up just like you describe. Mind numbing pain, no position is comfortable. I'll take two Percocet, and crunch up the first to absorb it faster. Then I have to do something to distract myself until they kick in. Book or tv, with about eight pillows propped under me to hold the arm in a relatively sweet spot.
Last time it hit, we were camping, with no real meds. I ate eight aspirin and two Tylenol from the first aid kit to cut the pain. Must be great for my gut.
