Random pic thread.

Sorry you can't see my nipples @McCracken. Maybe on our next wheeling trip?
This race kicked my butt today. Still a good course!

I beg to differ my friend

Don't break your tailgate/ramp. Probably cost more than a new grill these days.
Probably right! I need to redo my bedsides, but it'd cost more than I paid for the truck.
 
Finally!

But the damn thing is so sexy with the new undercarriage that it attracted a mate before it even left the shop.

My buddy was admiring my 15 year old Cold Steel Kukri, and I decided to order him one... then found out they don't make them anymore. But CRKT does.

The CRKT one beats my old Cold Steel one hands down, in every category except the sheath. The Sheath sucks.

I'll probably buy one of these for myself, so if any of you know a good leather worker, I'll be needing a Cold Steel style sheath for it.
 
How many hours before you anticipate rebuilding again?

I've never been around an asv and I know they have amazingly low gp and great traction but soo many parts to achieve it.
Never. Have you seen how long I keep stuff? :laughing:

I've heard reports of as low as 800hrs, and as high as 3-4k or something crazy. I'd believe both. Crusher run size gravel can wreak havoc on it if it gets up in the wheels. Also skidding across rocks and other sharp abrasive stuff is hard on the tracks (true of all machines, not just ASVs). Mine has about 1500hrs on it, but I swear to PO never cleaned a single thing under it, and that wreaked havoc on the big idler wheels and the track frame (wear from mud and rocks dragging, you probably saw the pics earlier in the list thread). The other SR80 in the pic has 1100hrs, tread depth is still good, bogies/idlers/bearings/seals appear to be good, but its a 2006 model and the tracks are dry-rotting and the drive lugs are breaking off. New ones look like this:

Not this:

Here it is after a little cleaning tonight:

Not nearly as rusted as mine was, so hopefully everything else is better too.

The CRKT blade isnt half what the old cold steel is/was.
S.A.W.F.T

They're at Busco for a few days with my wifes uncle and his family. It's turned in to an informal family get together for them.
I was typing out that it looked like Busco Beach.
 
@jeepinmatt knows this stretch of road coming onto the island.
Neighbor “who’s in the know” said 3 high school girls were in it and admitted they were all using their phones to take pics. At least they were honest ?!? Fortunately no one was hurt
