I want one just so I can pour cement and then bore holes in it! That is quite badass!

Went to NAPA and they had the 2, 45deg elbows and a 6ft section of straight for the exhaust on the motorhome. :tup: Only used 16 inches of that straight pipe. :icon17: The 2 elbows, the straight pipe, and 2 clamps cost me less the $80.00. :tup: If I could have gotten the tailpipe from Freightliner or Fleetwood. Think I would have been paying close to $200 for it.

I remembered you said that. :tup: A good purchase. Sub fills the room too which is surprising. Crisp sound out of the bar too.

Wifey wanted pizza for dinner. Called 3 different places. None would answer the phone. :confused: So I called another place and got us burgers and some other stuff. :yum:

The bad part. When we returned the houseboat. We had to refill the fuel tanks. That was $2,600.00. :eek: :shakes head:

Probably would have been 5/600 :ugh2:
Really easy working with the large diameter pipes & band clamps :iagree:
The U-bolt clamps put a crimp & make it more difficult to remove in future :icon14:

I would believe the tail pipe could be that much.

The muffler used a band clamp which was nice. Wasn't hard installing the 1st elbow into the muffler. Put some lubiplate grease on the inside of the muffler and outside of the elbow. And tapped the elbow right in. :tup: Had to use a u-bolt clamp for the 2nd elbow. Made the straight section 3" longer so that the stainless tip sticks out farther. The heat from the exhaust was starting to melt the stone shield on the tow bar for the Jeep.

The Custer Cluster is a spot on name for this site.
Unrealistic deadlines.
Understaffed.
Last minute changes.
Shop guys didn't send the right stuff to cover last minute changes.
Sparky is a whinny D bag. He's the cause of said changes.
3 inspections on everything.
The guy who they sent go do my excavation dug it 2 foott too small.
Have a 5 hour trip after fixing the dig to get my skidsteer off my last site and where I need it.
I have 8 bolts that need core drilled and epoxy while I'm there.

Buy stock in Budweiser guys, its flying off the shelf

Both knees were giving me the dickens today. Storm to the south is causing me issues. Took an ibuprofen and they are back to hurting again tonight. No fun.

Rusty 06-06-2020 09:09 PM

The camera lens on my phone is scratched up. Looking on-line for a fix. They all said to rub toothpaste over the lens for a few minutes and wipe clean. Lets just say that my lens smells nice, still had the scratches. So off to the the garage. Used my Dremel with a polishing pad, and rubbing compound. The lens no longer smell nice. But most of the scratches are out. Plus the pictures are no longer out of focus.

Look on the bright side. They will hurt a lot worse the older you get. So enjoy your what pain you have now.

You should check on it.

My nephew's oldest boy is getting it. Was almost done with Marine boot camp. Had 3 weeks to go. Ended up with green stick fractures in both legs that will not heal. Been on crutches for close to a year now. :icon14:

eastwest2300 06-06-2020 09:39 PM

so far from what I've seen, the VA down here is a mess, I've done my thing, getting registered with them, I've heard nothing from them since.. its almost crazy.. the VA in grand rapids was squared away.. total opposites here.

Good luck. As someone who has battled them in the past for 3 yrs. I finally got it done.

Do you have anything in your military medical records that shows what your knee issue was or attributed too? If so, you got a chance. You will need supporting data after that.

Mediocre race at best. Nascar ruined the track last year with their compound.

Spooler 06-06-2020 10:28 PM

Had an issue with a Dept. of Agriculture inspector Friday. I was in the garage working and had the door barely cracked open where I work. All the sudden the door flew open and the lady for the department of Agriculture screamed and stepped back out the doorway. WTH, I was actually on a call. No knocks were made and nobody called my name. This could have turned out bad. I just feel violated.
