Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
Oh. I thought you were saying your butt wasn't the fatt one.
Bill's XJ's butt is like an apple bottom. It's a little big, but everyone likes it. Rob's is just obese.
i like big butts and i cannot lie
FIFY.
For the record, I never broke a D30 shaft. Went right for the gold.
I haven't either, unless you count rusty-ass brackets. Hell, I'm still running gross dried out stock 297 joints and I haven't blown anything up yet. I blame the ATs for that, because I've been trying... when I find my box of jeep parts that has the spicers in it, I'll be swapping the joints out.
i loved my detroit in the front. it was always silent and always worked flawlessly til it blew up
dislike the lock-rite in front (really chattery on corners and makes bad noises in the snow) but gets the job done
spool in back was fine, didnt like leaving my tire tread on the ground every corner i made though.
detroit in the back works. but i dont like the street manners too much. it can be "jumpy"
You should see the tracks the M54A2 leaves. When I turn the steering all the way to the stops I leave visible tire tracks on the asphalt even with open diffs in the back. When I used it to help a friend move (we fit ALL his furniture, and half of his belongings, in the truck in one trip) I happened to park on some nice new asphalt, it was like 75 degrees out and turning the wheels from lock to lock actually tore chunks out and left a tread imprint in what remained.
Never really had too many problems with cold shingles splitting when nailed
Your also Going to want to keep more than a few warm at a time. A roll of plastic and a small propane heater should keep a room in the house warm enough to do the trick.
Another thing, make sure you have a good supply of quality razor blades on hand to cut 50 year shingles, you will need them. Or if you can come up with a paper cutter, they work great for cutting your starters and anything else you need to mass cut.
Starters I bought premade - 40 bucks for a board, covers around 120 feet of eaves, I have around 100 feet. Worked out perfectly.
razor blades - I keep a 100 pack dispenser of Stanley blades on my desk at home and another one sitting in the center console of the MJ, and carry two utility knives at all times.
paper cutter / heat - hmmm I might have to rig up a heater... don't have a paper cutter though. I'll be buying a couple boards of the ridge cap shingles (believe I calculated I will need 5), they're cut from the same colored stock but no tabs or cutouts just straight shingles.
