  1. I would pull the AWD shaft real quick and see if the problem or clicking noise is still there. The rubber around the carrier bearing gets weak and can let it contact things it shouldn't. My 2000 did this when turning... at first... and it was a light clicking noise. Saw an interesting DIY repair in where someone put window sealant all over it to stiffen it back up. May try that with mine. Just a thought. Looks great... nice save! :)
  2. I would say regulating ammunition is akin to regulating alcohol. How well did that work?
  3. Apparently, Chuck, you didn't realize the millions of warm fuzzies that are associated with the taking of other people's firearms. Currently I am unaware of the exchange rate from warm fuzzies to dollarydoos, though. :)
  4. How many wheel spin? What kind of transmission can stand up to this?
  5. It seems so tame at first. Would love it if you could get some street video of this. :) Awesome work
  6. Odd request... do you have the OEM rear left engine assembly mount? http://www.ardideas.com/assets/images/9161101-1.jpg My 2000 apparently has a different mount, and after putting my M66 in this weekend... I find I am in need.
  7. If you think people don't reload their own ammo, you're delusional. It's something almost everyone does here in Texas.
  8. Digging on the down pipe. Any pictures from underneath? Curious about routing.
  9. Man, that thing is cool. Digging the progress. Thanks for the updates!
  10. Digging the downpipe. Location looks great.
  11. I'm going to ask, though I'm sure you've covered it, I don't want to infer incorrectly. This originally was an 81mm bore, right? What piston and rod combo is this? Different from what it originally came with?
  12. Damn H. I am sorry to hear it's come apart on you. However, I completely understand why you would part it. At the end of the day, they are just cars... and when you need a reliable daily, it totally changes the perspective. I, for one, have appreciate your build from the start. If you do go the route of the C30... I'll be interested to see what you do with it.
  13. You know... there's probably some validity to this. It's sad.
  14. Mental illness is unique to America. There have been some serious changes in our policies regarding how we handle mentally ill people, and how those systems were basically shut down. We turned our back on mental institutions meant to help people... which got them defunded and those people were turned out into society. I've never seen a gun shoot someone without an operator.
  15. 10K per round? That works until the hippy with an electric car want gasoline to be 10K a gallon... and vegetarians want meat to be 10K a pound... etc. You cannot control guns or their parts. Look at 3D printing. Even if you confiscated weapons, which I think we could all agree is the most extreme attempt at control... people will just print or make their own. Trying to price fix people out of something also doesn't address that EVERYONE has the ability, and cheap tools to press their own ammunition. You should visit Texas and see some of the arsenals that I've seen. You will see it's not the weapon that does the killing... the the meat sack operating it that does. It's ironic that you want to take things away from others... but do not think about others taking things away from you in the same fashion. What happened to those poor people on national TV was an atrocity. I'm pro freedom to do what the fuck you want unless you hurt someone else on pretty much everything... but this guy was a fucking loon, and it looks like there were many people who noticed. That dude shouldn't have been fired from his job... he should have been committed.
  16. This is one of the most intense video's I've ever seen. Simply because of the extreme premeditation this guy had... it's scary. Doesn't matter whether it was a gun or a bomb... this guy was using all of his available intellect to hurt people as much as possible. WDBJ Live Shooter Filmed Himself as He fired When will we learn that guns aren't the problem... mental health is.
  17. Glad you're reusing the stock section over the rear diff. It's unfortunately the best way to go on these cars and at least it's 2.5" Coming together nicely!
  18. Your package should be there on Wednesday...
