Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

I probably wouldn't worry about it...I'd imagine the gears are probably worn in by now, and the synchros aren't ferrous anyway...

How is that a clearance issue? The bolt's just a little too long to fit in place with the plug there?

Yeah I don't know what the synchros are made of, but I rebuilt the thing (bearings/synchros...gears are original minus the input gear).

The bolt comes out at just the right angle to contact the head of the drain plug before coming all the way out.

I chopped down one of the bolts so a thread or two sticks out past the nut, and I can just get the bolt out if I take out the drain plug. With a flush mount drain plug I wouldn't have an issue.

It's kind of funny if you ask me.

I would just pull the pan and put a 50 cents magnet in there and then use that 90 cents drain plug.

Wrong transmission...there's no pan

I'd just be worried about the magnet somehow getting thrown around.

Ahh okay, didnt know you cant thake the pan off. You could make your own by glueing something like this to the plug. http://www.kjmagnetics.com/proddetail.asp?prod=ZD19

And just because this wedsite is fun to look at the magnets. http://www.kjmagnetics.com/products.asp?cat=17

Anthony, hurry up and finish that dumb box so you can work on your jeep.

It's gonna be soooo sick. It's also a PITA working with a skillsaw instead of a table saw. But his skill saw cuts wood better than my 4.5" angle grinder, so I guess that's what I'm using :laugh3:

Speakers have magnets. Small ones, big ones, some as big as your head.

Looks pretty bling but Earls is pretty proud of their stuff...

I would take the 90 cent part and bore a shallow hole into it somewhere (ideally where it won't go through into the recessed hex socket :dunce and epoxy one of the small disc magnets from http://unitednuclear.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=70_71 into it. A magnet epoxied into a hole in a steel plug will not go anywhere unless something goes severely wrong inside that transmission.

It will cost you more than an Earl's plug, but you will have another 24 to 49 nifty super strong magnets to play with.

This is my favorite magnet of theirs: http://unitednuclear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=70_71&products_id=285

Weighs 10lbs, and you could probably pick an XJ up with it if you welded a 1" thick steel plate to somewhere on the jeep (I would suggest the bottom of the cat) so it had something to stick to.

genius! colin, stick a speaker to the side of your transmission!!! :clap:

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

If I was gonna use a separate magnet, I'd just grab one out of a 231. Those were pretty enormous.

I'll probably just get the cheap mcmaster one and just drain the oil after a wheeling trip or two to make sure everything's ok and then leave it alone.

Instead of rebuilding my floor like Chris, I'm going to build a "false floor" like Anthony around my tranmission filled with speakers with enormous magnets.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Last night it was pitch.

Going back to this...

I've never heard of it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitch_(card_game)

And reading that makes it sound WAY too complicated.

The dealer shuffles and the pone[4] cuts. The dealer hands out 6 cards to each player in batches of 3. Trump is determined by the suit of the first card played in trick-play. Eldest hand[5] leads to the first trick, and the winner of each trick leads to the next. Standard trick-play rules are in effect with the exception that a player who can follow suit to a plain suit lead is nevertheless allowed to play a trump.

At the end of the deal scoring points are awarded as described in the table. The Jack point is not awarded if no player held the Jack of trumps. The Game point is only awarded if one party has won more pips in tricks than any other. The scoring points accrue strictly in the order given in the table, preventing ties in case more than one team reaches the target score at the end of the deal.

Pips and pones?

I'm sure it's fun once you get used to it.

Anyone here play euchre?

Anyone here play euchre?

used to play with my co-workers. Also "up and down the river." Both too complex for me. For some reason card games melt my brain even though I can do calculus and electrical engineering shit with no problems, I was well known as the most retarded card player ever when I played.
