Damn it son I hate that for you, but i absolutely appreciate you sharing. Im laughing my ass off like a good friend should.

I would expect nothing less. I'd laugh too if it were so depressing.

Dude that's hard to hear on multiple levels. Any idea why the first motor let go?

Hole in the #1 piston. Was pulling the skidsteer up the Saluda grade on I-26. Could be an overfueling injector or a bad tune, but engine had 200k on it and has been running the same tune for over 100k miles.

Hate it for you man, but I'm sure you'll make quick work of it.

Your optimism is inspiring, but unfortunately not effective...this happened back in April or May (been so long ago I can't even remember haha).

On a positive note think of all the spare cummins parts you can store for me until I need something...

I got everything you need except the #1 piston. And the block.

Dang, old school in-person only auction. Pretty much everyone else has gone online only.

Might could actually get some good deals on stuff since people actually have to show up to bid. Unfortunately, I'm not dragging the 3-year old out there, she would not have a good time.

Anybody on here going to the auction?

I'll be damned, they still exist

I miss their old school catalogs. I ordered a bunch of stuff from them back in the 80's.

Daughter’s first high school wrestling match (gold singlet). When they said these tournaments take all day, they weren’t exaggerating.

That's pretty cool. It seems it's getting some traction with the girls. I think our team has 4-5.

And yes, wrestling tournaments suck, lol.

A day on trail with the family.

Just seen this. I went jeep went for 4800 I think. Which I think was a fair deal for it to be so solid. A lot of stuff did go cheap or dang near free. So many tool lots and stuff for 5$. And as usual some stuff went above retail haha

Had a 25% off coupon and haven’t had a good jack in about six years. I’m feeling more excited than I ought to.

I looked through the auction pics and definitely saw some tools and stuff that I would have tried to buy.

Turbo decided it wanted to die while the truck was off and I was changing the rear diff fluid .

Bunch of dollhairs and too many wrench hours later, and she's back up and running.

Thank you, sir. But I could not have done it without the help and inspiration of my brother, the poolman.

When your press has a baby press hanging off of it, you know things can get serious.

I’m in the market for a Dake 1-3/4 myself to hang off the side of my 50 ton. Is yours a 50 or a 75? Cylinder and table look beefier than my 50T.

 

[jeepinmatt]

@WARRIORWELDING I may need your services once this wears out. But for now I’ll keep not bothering to grease it.

Not like the grease touches much anyway.

I replaced my other truck turbo with a bd non wg turbo kit and exhaust brake and always regretted it, smart putting a vgt back in.

I took advantage of the nice weather today and got a start on my Christmas exterior illumination. First time i’ve ever hung bulbs on the gutters like that because it is so high. Haven’t decided what else I’m doing this year.

Cant go in the hunting thread. Poor fella hit! His guy in his car out by my shop.
