Thread: And so it begins

I hate gewbers with multiple carports. Looks like your rig is coming along nicely

You would love me then. Birds are pooin on my new ride.

Yeah but no carpet, just hose off.

I'm getting a fire lit under me now. It's one thing to let Flinger and Kdavid show me up in the bot rigging department, but its another thing all together to let Feelay whip me.


Progress...of sorts. Had a plan and worked it this weekend. I think that was my first mistake...having a plan. Decide I'd best check the water in the batteries. Well the boy I bought it from ha moved the batteries to the forward compartment and had mounted the forward 2 batteries past the leading edge of the compartment making it impossible to check the water levels and even harder to refill. No problem I thought, I'll just reposition them back a few inches. Well. That required modification to the battery box since the first battery now had to reside past the trailing lip of the box plus I had to rotate it 180 so I could then access it's maintenance ports, which then required extending the cables some 5". Got that done and then moved the remaining two batts back about 4.5" and rotated one of them 180. Again with the extensions. Anyway...3.5 hours later it turns out they didn't need any water.

Btw, group 31s are extry extry heavy.

Think I set some sort of moochin' record on this one. Got free labor plus lunch delivered today at lunch. All while I stood around munchin' on the free grub and directed the snaking of my power bubble lines to the front. Can't beat that with a stick.





Just look at the dedication of the hired hands.



In this one, MT is working so hard and fast, he blured out he pic. Think he was in a hurry cause if he took any longer, I was gonna make him buy me Supper too.



Got a new jack to put on too. It's a harbor freight dual wheel 1500 lb model. Bad cheap at $30, but it's a chunk to hold. Old was was bent up and would work you to death. This one might be a POS too, but dang, the nice ones started at $100 and went all the way into the $180s.
