    King of the Hammers 2019

    Tomorrow is supposed to be too nice to spend inside watching TV, so I put a TV in the garage. Got it tied into my stereo system so SURROUND SOUND! Gonna be working on my steering rack swap tomorrow while I watch the race.

    King of the Hammers 2019

    That's awesome! I'm hoping to make it out there next year, at least for the main event. Probably fly out and try to hook up with some of my internet buddies for somewhere to stay on the lake bed. I'd eventually like to spend get the X out there and spend some time in the desert as well.

    Handheld Ham Radio Adivce

    Here's a good example for everyone. Yesterday I went with a group of buddies from the local ham club to the Richmond Frostfest hamfest. It's a huge event and always a good time.

    FTM-400XDR Question

    Thanks Brent but I actually wound up swapping the 400 from a TM-D710G since the 400 was so back ordered.

    X-Bull Recovery Tracks...another inexpensive alternative

    I don't store mine on the rig. They spend most of the time in the garage. They are pretty stout though. We used them with several rigs last year and there's some wear on them but nothing unexpected. I'm not sure they were helpful in the situation we were in but they held up to the abuse ok. I...

    Mechanical Problems vs Navigation Problems vs Logistical Problems

    You will encounter all three. I suggest you become familiar with basic maintenance of your vehicle. Learn to do basic inspections like steering and suspension systems. Knowing common failure points of your particular vehicle is also important. Spend time on vehicle specific forums for what you...
