  1. Well on Saturday morning I finally became a daddy! Welcome to the world Mr. Cullen Andrew Richardson.

  2. Yay! I get to spend $1,800 on steering/suspension parts on my HD. The issues are most likely caused by my Torsion Lift. Wonderfull

      That sucks man. I didn't know that would cause issues.

      I'm not far behind. 2k into the truck last month and I'm looking at doing the front end very soon.

      Yeah both the upper and lower ball joints were starting to shred and at 70K miles that is way wya way to early. The rest of the steering can wear out that fast, but its not that common. So my options now are to drop it back to stock height and maybe have to get smaller tires or go back to stock wheels. Or the most expensive option would be to do a suspension lift. I can do a 4" and keep my current tires/wheels, but if I do a 6" i would have to get new tires

  3. Just ordered some Morimoto HID projectors! Cant wait to install it and get me some nice cut off lines

      Dan; That was an AWESOME how to you posted. Just wanted you to know that it was appreciated by a few of us, at least.

  4. Well the Engine on my Subaru is toast and will have to be rebuilt. I was quoted $3500-$4500 depending on how bad the damage is. The shop owner offered me $4000 for it as is, so i decided to dump it and move on.

      Sounds like a good idea Dan. Problems breed problems. GL on finding a new ride

      Im trying to decide what to do next. The most practical would be for me to get a mid size SUV of some sort, but im not the prctical kind. Im thinking about an X5 BMW, but I really want a car to put around in.

      Time for a STI? If you wanted to do the work yourself a new shortblock is like right under 2k, plus gaskets, bolts, etc.

  5. I may have just blown the Turbo in my Subaru. Grrrrr!

      Sorry to hear it Dan. Hope you find a not too painful remedy.

      I hope so. I was driving home and the oil light came on. Im 99% sure the oil pump went out, well i tried to limp it home and I heard some nasty noise coming from the engine, and I had no boost. So the turbo was starved of oil, but hopefully for not long enough that it did damage. I did not have any smoke and no check engine light so im keeping my fingers crossed that its just the oil pump and once the turbo has oil again it will work. Worst case i will have to repace the turbo, intercooler an...

      Your right it could have been cop pressure, but the euro's are still a bad idea.

    4. diggerdan11

      diggerdan11

      I would have even traded him my new LEDs

  12. Getting doors slammed in your face (figuratively) is not fun!

  13. So there is a new trend going around with the ricers in my town. I have seen like 6 cars lately with 3-4 foot extensions coming up and our of their exhausts. WTF?

      I think it could be the singles worst rice mod I have ever seen.

  14. Installed some Bilstein Shocks on my HD. Its a night and day difference, so much smoother riding.

  15. My house has been on the Market for 3 days and I already have 4 showings scheduled. Lets hope these showings lead to an offer. Cross your fingers.

      Fingers crossed Dan. If it's that hot an item, raise your price. 1/2 joking.

      my house sold in the first 24 minutes of the first showing. But it was a complete PITA and wish I never sold it to those young brats with rich parents.

  16. This weekend I got a ton of FB feeds from the SS FB page. There is a lot of really bad information being passed around on there.

      The biggest problem Im having with it is all these people answering questions but giving wrong answers. The people asking the questions need to ask them on here so they can get the correct answers.

      I hate a euro tail light with a passion.

    3. diggerdan11

      diggerdan11

      I would have paid him what It cost me for them, and then he could have had the stock ones. But he talked about how cool they were and how bad he wanted them, so i just gave in.

    4. Muggs

      Euro tails are ugly

      I'm just going to finish the remodel on my house ASAP so I can put it on the market. I may even move in with my parents while it is for sale just to get the hell out of there.

      Move to Rural MN... The only reason why I pack now is to defend from Wolves and Bears LMAO at least they don't want my truck and money haha

      Klamath Falls Oregon use to be a safe place, but with high unemployment comes high drug rates, and no money for cops to catch criminals, its just getting worse and worse every day. I am going to be moving before Fall to Suburban Portlnad, OR. Much safer place to live.

  21. First snow of the year. It was just a light dusting, but still

      This time of the year is always fun because I have to warm my truck up in the morning and scrape ice, but I have to use my AC heading home from work. But that will only last a couple weeks and it will start getting colder and colder.
