Damn JJ, that rail is looking awesome! When you get it out to the dunes, I would love to join! I really miss camping with you guys!
US too!!!! You can count on it being posted here when and were I will be taking it!!!!!!! 😎 I have been staying in the house for the most part…. 😎 I got my sand rail almost as far as it can be taken at the time being, till I spend some money on a trans and some key engine parts…. and I’m really not trying to spend any money at the moment…. soo…. What have I been up to?? Drinking loads of coffee, smoking lots of weed and Reading… if you can believe that… 😎 😎 😎 and let me blow your mind.. It’s a Jane Fonda book…. 😎 Yup… re read that… You read it right… 😎 Been a good read… Corporate and I are both reading it…. Kinda fun!!! 😎 😎 I enjoy having my wife around ALL the time… 😎 😎 She’s probably about over it though…. 😎 Sweet fuchin picture…. 😎
John. You should buy one of these. Get away from the smoking.
so… here is the subject at hand.. Needs to be light and functional.. thats it!!! 😎 I know I need some tongue weight for it to tow right…. I may end up moving them axles… Trailer got jack knifed and is bent in several ways… Lucky me…. 😎
got the axle off… and moved.. It’s not welded… I may have it too far back…. 😎 😎 😎 but thinking about adding some trailer after the axle.
I think my heaviest weight will be just in front of my rear tires… but behind the seat… so I figure I want my heaviest weight just a little in front of my trailer axle…. 😎
I’ll make some progress today… 😎 yesterday was a holiday and I had to celebrate. 😎
Can’t wait to hook it to my bus and tow my rail around!!!!! 😎 Tractor power…. with the extra cooling I’ve been trying not to do.. no worries this summer.. I’ll be towing like a Mack truck…. 😎
So I heard Saturday they are doing some road course racing at the go cart track…. I’m gonna take the kombi and see how it does… I hope I can out run some type 1’s….. 😎 😎 This is going to be fun as fuck… I willl make sure to bring corporate and get video’s and pics… 😎
I wanna tell you guys something I was thinking about friday…. I remember way back… My old man friends never seemed to car about how long it took them to do anything.. They would spend tens times the hours that the same thing could be purchased for… Like my sand rail trailer project…. Back in the day… I would just go buy a light weight trailer from a trailer guy and keep doing what I do.. Volkswagens.. But these days… I get it… I don’t really care how long I spend on my shit anymore… and…. I can’t really go kick ass and make the money I did when my body was in better shape.. I get it… I really get it now… 😎 Thanks Ray… Thanks Jim… Thanks Gene… Thanks to all them old guys who helped me along the way…. 😎 I am a product of all the men who had influence on me 😎
Anyway… Back to this expensive time consuming SINGLE use trailer,., useless for almost anything else but this… 😎 Kinda like my motorcycle trailer… 😎
No doubt about it…. My back feels tons better when I don’t use it…. 8-). That sorta sucks,, but some medium ground can surely be found in there.. 8-).
My bus ran like a champ the whole trip.. Thank You Pamper.. 8-). I also ran 85 octane for a change!! My bus ran like a champ with it.. No pinging… and I tried,,, I lugged it up some serious hills!!!! I put her to the test.. I do like the oil cooler… Just gives me an overwhelmingly positive feeling about my oil temp…. But it made NO difference in my heat… I thought it may bring down exhaust temp and so my heat.. but nope.. I am fairly sure my bus ran better AND the heat was hotter with the 85 octane.. My heat fucking rocks. 😎 😎 8-). Some crazy fellow I met along the way said my deck height is too tall… I dunno… I like my 6.9 compression ration 2332… 😎 😎 😎 . Funny enough, no pictures were taken of my motor.. 😎 . Last night
