John Fuller the third time?

[obxbronco]

and no I am not here for attention...this is not the attention i desire to have nor the kind of friends (just being honest). I honestly can say 90% of the reason I have posted and continue to post here is because the amount of entertainment people get from my stuff. I don't loose sleep over anyone, anything said, or over my "unsafe build" so no hurt feelings here.
The friends I have (very few) like me for me and my family and what values I have...nothing to do with my jeep or "build." I like it this way. I have weeded out all the people in my life that are not true friends who will stand by me no matter the circumstance and who would never do anything to harm me or my family or jeopardize what little I have because they think they have a sainthood mentality. True friends and family should look out for one another not tear each other down.

really now...when was the last time you read...actually read through my posts. If you cared enough to pay attention and not just pick around, you would see my "attitude" comes from years and years of being called names and unworthy and a danger to people just cause of my jeep build. Yeah forgive my "attitude" but look inwards and you will see where my "attitude" comes from.

WOW, again some twisted form of "family community" you refer yourself to. I have never once felt accepted by anyone on this forum unless i agree to ditch my jeep and build something to their liking....I know, I'm a broken record right...cause someone will now tell me my speeches like this make me a psycho!

I've never had a problem with anyone on this site. They are a bunch of good guys here. I do consider it a dysfunctional 4x4 family community.

Hey fuller! I am guna build myself a log home out of rotten logs and space every thing 4foot on center! BTW it will be in a place that gets 5 foot off snow! What do you think? Good idea? I mean it's just for me! I think it will hold up great!!!

listen bro...don't even start with me.
#1. I know building Log Homes so don't go there
#2. You can pick at whatever you want but NONE of you will ever admit that my build is nothing as dangerous as you have claimed since it has proven everyone wrong and you're just internet ballers that just talk trash cause i take it...but yet you have not one proof of evidence that anything on my jeep is trash or unsafe. You speculate my build is trash by the "looks" and just cause every one else does but looks don't mean crap OBVIOUSLY cause I'm still running strong and if you looked at all my "important" welds:
such as control arms...crossmember (no bolts)...my driveshafts which I made...and my bumpers you wouldn't see one stress mark around that "weak thin" unibody that it's welded to so I must be doing something right and it just kills you to even think the possibility that i actually build a semi durable xj despite it's looks and ghettoness.

The welding test that I'm doing for the welding teacher on here is NOT FOR YOU ....It's for me to see how according to "books" my welds are but at the end of the day, it will not prove that I can't weld for shit as everyone claims cause in real life applications I have yet to have any problems with my welds and as mentioned, those tests don't prove the reliability of a weld on a DD vehicle as my customers or my trail jeep as none will ever see the abuse that it would take a weld to break before the unibody pieces/factory pieces ever gave out first.
What DO I Mean: Factory D30/D35 NOT MEANT FOR 40s even on the street right? right.
yeah well explain driving for 2 years and wheel bearings were still solid as new..WHY? because WE ALL KNOW in this industry everything is rated WAY BELOW what actual true strength of a tool, metal, bearing, tire, wheel, axle etc. etc.

Accidents happen in this sport. Paul's wife and a few of my close friends are testaments to this.

Yes thank you as if after 18 years of Off-roading (mild or soft or hard) I didn't know this. I have never rolled in 18 yrs and theres a reason for that...I'm not crazy on the trail but a close call here at the house is what actually got me to put one in and Rock Ledge since I want to attempt it...the money for the "proper cage" is more than half my jeep and you know me (or should) that is not my budget.
All I can say, I have trusted STRONGLY everything I've ever done to my jeep toys and never had one fail me (even those factory lower arms combined together for years at HIGHWAY speeds).
Would I like to afford "proper cage" Yes. that would be one thing i would do proper if and when i get the money but to tell me what i put in is worst than nothing and worthless....really?

 

[marty79]

I've never had a problem with anyone on this site.

that's cause you either have a proper rig, proper for their liking, or your smart enough to know not to post your build on here as I have been told before

 

[Loganwayne]

I'm just here for the updates and not having to read 50 more post at one time carry on

 

[marty79]

Because I know your response will get a "good enough for me" answer from shitferbrains.

and NO i said it's "good enough for now" and better than nothing...way better.
eventually i hope to have the funds with new life/job/income where we're moving and it will be easy to cut it all out and put in a legit cage but for what I will be doing with the jeep now, it is better than nothing and will protect me better than not having anything
^^^I don't see what's so hard to understand about this

 

[marty79]

and where are those darn plates already...................lol

 

[obxbronco]

When I had my rig I built it the safe way! If not for me, atleast for my wife and kids! Also didn't try to piss people off and write novels.

 

[criket]

hey hey hey...no shooting the horse (I know I'm the horse dang it lol)

I actually meant a real horse. I would def shoot a real horse.

 

[marty79]

Also didn't try to piss people off and write novels.

that's funny, i like that!!

 

[marty79]

If not for me, atleast for my wife and kids!

My wife and daughter only ride green trails...daughter loves Easy St but all the other yellows are a no no. I'm the only one that rides (unless there's a balsy person LOL LOL that will be the day hell freezes over i bet) up all/any other trails...

In a similar incident, just last weekend, a fellow wheeler had his rig slip out of park and start careening down the mountain with his lady friend inside. A complete accident while he was working on it. A well built cage kept her intact while she was in the passenger seat.

Another member on here rolled on the Lower Rock Garden at Harlan a few years back and essentially totaled his rig. Another well built cage did its job and that was just the last roll or flop of many that it withstood but the thing hit a rock just right and crushed the roof in.

I can name off a few more NC4x4'ers who've been saved by good tube work and would have been in much worse shape had it been shoddy work...where I'm going with this is, anything worth doing is worth doing right. Don't 1/2ass or even 1/4ass some shit that could save your damn life.

I wheeled for a long time without a cage. Finally had a few close calls and wised up. First thing I did with the rig I have now was to take it to PJ at M&M and have him build a cage that tied into 6 points of the frame. That was after 1 shakedown run and before the first major trip it's been on. Don't fuck with your life. Accidents happen in this sport. Paul's wife and a few of my close friends are testaments to this.

X2

Nobody that I seen roll last year planned on it, that's life shit happens be prepared. I watched one cage save a guy at uwharrie and he was fortunate to say the least. I guess everybody has there own priorities but safety is pretty high on my list.

 

[marty79]

my friend rode with me for a year as my spotter and he is an awesome friend and spotter...kinda sad to lose him now that he has his own rig....
Hey I NEED A SPOTTER IF ANYONE INTERESTED........did I just say this on this forum, oh my

Call the suicide hotline!! The will know plenty of people willing to fill the spot!

 

[marty79]

everybody has there own priorities but safety is pretty high on my list.

and the only reason people think safety isn't my top priority is......cause I don't have an expensive built jeep with proper control arms, proper welds, proper welds, and an expensive built roll cage, yet somehow this unsafe jeep like my previous ones has not proven one bit to be unsafe....
to prove a point....running that mud bog would've have ruined my driveshafts and control arms with crossmember if they were as weak as everyone says with the amount of torque taking off WOT so many runs i did and then some...on the trails I'm easy on it so that was more stress on my junk than the trails...(until the last run when it was so wet i grenaded my ball joints and axle lol check this out yall...top of Ol Stumpy lost my temper and floored it...this is what happens when D30 on these nobby tires grab a rock then slide and bang she came down hard....off went everything. It was quite hilarious but sucked ass fixing it all day in the rain on top of that hill)

 

[Infamous1]

I didnt mean a vote to try to reban the twice banned, just an opinion poll!

 

[marty79]

oh yeah our dumbutts hit Ol Stumpy as the first trail that friday morning wet as crap and well....you see how that went. Learned a lesson though: stay the heck away from red trails when it's wet out there.. even half the yellows were hard and sloppy as hell. I like it better when it's drier conditions...I like being able to do all the yellows and only ONE time I tackled Ol Stumpy and it was dry otherwise, it's 1-2 right now lol (Os stumpy is GOING DOWN on my next run and if this stupid D44 breaks....well i guess time for bigger or alloy outers)

 

[trailhugger]

fine I'll say it:
people thought Twice that i sell vehicles that aren't mine/stolen/illegal...on my end I will not explain myself

<sigh> It's actually fitting that that his front end looks like the Ghost of Christmas Past.

got it on a job as payment for fixing his other jeep. he never got it payed off from the loan company. bought it new in 98, never payd off is what he said but I didn't care at the time cuase it was just supposed to be a toy. spoke to him recently though and is hoping to have that loan paid and title back by summer for his credit score purposes so maybe a hit, don't know!

damn pigs damn pigs. I hate bacon! damn nc4x4 police again. man, you guys suck. and you all this a "brotherhood" of friends and sportsman. Looser

One year, DMV was going to fine me a hefty fine but never heard back so i quit and slowed down to 11 or less a year... i now average about 4-6 a year..mostly jeeps though and i don't tag em in my name anymore..open titles is my best friend now lol

You do realize having an open title vehicle is a felony right???

HA i saw that one coming...a "felony"????really, since I personally know the 3 people at the DMV, i can assure you it's not a felony but say what you wanna say...i'm the criminal again with another title issue...brings back memories from 3yrs ago thread....

well dam, i got like over 400 felonies right now i guess...daggummit man can't make a living without being wronged somehow...funny though i been doing this for over 14yrs and never heard DMV officer tell me that

hey in all seriousness to the Moderators/owners of this board...Please make whatever decision you feel on your heart to do about me. Despite all the jokes and such, I don't want any special treatment.
I have made my apologies for the things I have been banned for and would respect whatever decision you make.
(I feel so much hatred and animosity from so many members for me being around here that I respect you making a choice that betters your forum and your members). Thank You

my "attitude" comes from years and years of being called names and unworthy and a danger to people just cause of my jeep build. Yeah forgive my "attitude" but look inwards and you will see where my "attitude" comes from... someone will now tell me my speeches like this make me a psycho!

I don't know about y'all... but I see a whole lot of animosity from 'marty'

 

[marty79]

^^^dang brah, you went all out. nice of you to bring out everything else beside my jeep that is wrong with me. nice, thank you.

 

[Chris_M]

He only brought out what YOU put in.

 

[rockcity]

and NO i said it's "good enough for now" and better than nothing...way better.

^^^I don't see what's so hard to understand about this

Didn't you just say earlier that even if you had tons of $$$ that you wouldn't do things different on your builds and make it with the same ol parts and processes you do now?

 

[marty79]

He only brought out what YOU put in.

true i guess. Again people have stated that a lot of people do what i said in those posts....they aren't stupid like me to admit it. That's the only thing I've learned in the past years is anything I say on here can and will be used against me. now i know what kind of family support there is here...I would never even think about turning people in or wrecking their name/lives over something like that...that's just because I APPRECIATE people's struggles and realize sometimes you just do what you can to get by and who am I to judge what someone does or how they make a living, just saying that's me and how I treat people.

 

[marty79]

Didn't you just say earlier that even if you had tons of $$$ that you wouldn't do things different on your builds and make it with the same ol parts and processes you do now?

yes i meant my control arms and links and other stuff i have done to it would be same/similar. Roll Cage would be a legit thing...I'm not a complete moron to know my cage is retarted looking and far from industry standard but I know it will do it's job it's intended to do until i can properly replace it.

 

[rockcity]

^^^dang brah, you went all out. nice of you to bring out everything else beside my jeep that is wrong with me. nice, thank you.

Careful. Cyd has the ban hammer and I bet isn't afraid to use it. If you are nice to just 1 person in here, Cyd would be the one

Don't forget about Matthew Isenhour rolling his junk on one of the access roads at the flats. Or the guy that died at Harlan on the gravel road.

I mean, we've been doing this for a long time. And the times when people have nearly gotten very, very hurt were when we were in the campground or riding easy shit, etc. This shit about "I only let people ride with me on green trails" comes from a lack of experience.
