Ya I figured the date change worked. During university I needed a 2k software. Got a free trial and when it ran out I thought ‘they can’t be that stupid that a simple date change on my computer would fool those software’ … Yes….the engineers were that dumb. My PC was stuck in an old date from...

My Scrambler also has that wonderful wrench. Thankfully a quick search and friendly guy in Italy hates that and wrote a code to clear the wrench without needing to go to a dealer.

Nice! Didn’t know they were books. Will have to check them out.

Thanks. Just looking at options for easiest post pulling right now. Option #1 - 48-60” farmer jack Option #2 - https://www.amazon.ca/VEVOR-Pullers-Lifting-Labor-Saving-Remover/dp/B0FWY5PQ38/ref=asc_df_B0FWY5PQ38 6x6x12 - $65 4x4x12 - $25 I much prefer the 6x6 though

Oh boy...Put in 5 posts already last year without the sonotubes. I thought they were only necessary if you have an above ground section so it's level, or the soil is collapsing around the hole b/w the excavation and the pour.

Looking for a spot in our backyard for the above ground 14ft pool to go up this year and there aren't any 'great' spots but I think I found a spot I can securely place, and fence off easier than other spots around the yard. Plus this spot has the most sunlight in the yard which always helps...

Sorry to hear that. It’s def tough depending on the market. Our market is hiring like crazy so I’m still fortunate and there’s a wave I may still be able to ride out. Will have to see and get my bearings as my preference is to stay in my industry.

2 guys quit from our team so we went out to say our ‘see you later’. Starting to think I’m the idiot for staying and not looking for a new job. Stay tuned for new job search thread! 🤣🤣🤣

Good post @Dresden but while you’re focused on the real estate you don’t mention much about the fact that literally everything else has gone up. So while salaries may have gone up (I disagree with the 25% on the bottom low wage workers) real world available money to spend has shrunk. Salaries...

I think I remember him. First time I went on the Solstice ride with you and your buddies. IIRC he was stupidly quick on it.

$5200 for a 390 https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1LE75MttY6/ Anyone have one? How are these for longer distances?

This bike is an attainable goal for me at some point in my life. Currently I want something better for day touring….that ain’t it. Maybe one day.

Your posts are making me weary of following the service manual for oil changes on my little Mav. Thinking I should do them every 5-8k instead just to be safe.

Nice setup! I love how you're able to put the jack underneath the engine. I have the same jack I bought off a GTAMer and can't figure it how to use it safely as the bottom of the Scrambler is only the engine, and I'm concerned about using that as a jack point.

100% would requiest a structural inspection / review before I touch anything. I'd say it's maybe...50-100sqft that would open up, but it's a massive difference if taken out properly. One concern is how to support the ceiling when that whole corner is taken out. Once it warms up I'll go up...
