What's the new KW got in it for a drivetrain?

A wimpy c15 475 twin turbo junk, noisy limp wristed thing. so much noise and so lil power, well the truck and trailer weigh around 60,000lbs empty, could be part of the problem. lol. but it still is pretty weak sauce, any hill and it slows down before the hill cuz it is already tired just looking at it.

If you're going to be in that truck for awhile, see if your boss will go for a power uprate. You can take that engine up to 550hp before the pistons need to be changed with a simple ECM reprograming.

zumvette 02-06-2008 10:42 AM

I am working on him. I want the 550, its just to damn slow for me. I know there is the heavy haul kit and the uprate to 550, which is better??

It has a 49 metric ton knuckle ferrari picker(749) on it, so it charts out around a 22 ton stiff boom chart. Wireless remote, I dont really like the valving on the swing. Its progressive, gets faster the longer you hold the lever and even if you let up on it a lil bit it doesnt slow down in portion to the movement but if you crack another lever it is easier to manage. It will just take some getting use to. OO and the boom out is super slow once it gets past the 4th section. 7 section so about 60 ft of boom, actually i am not 100% sure.

Ok so last night I got toasted and I am really confused. This dragon was feeling me up most of the night. Somehow I have her number know and I woke up at my buddies cousins house. They all kinda laughed at me this morning not sure why tho. I dont see any lipstick on me so I dont know what I dis to make them laugh. Maybe it was my snoring, I am scared that I might have slayed the dragon!!!! I am pretty sure I didnt but I am not 100% sure which bothers me. I dont smoke but this morning i tasted cigs, I know she smoked. This will be the first dragon if I did. EWWWWWWWW I am going to brush my teeth a dozen times today.

zumvette 02-06-2008 01:41 PM

Ok so I talked with my buddy and I DIDNT slay the dragon. (wiping forehead) A very small part of me was worried. So they were laughing cuz i drool a lil bit when I sleep I guess, lol. O well. I still dont know why I tasted cig smoke this morning tho, maybe I made out with her, o well.

so whats going on with your dog? you guys going to take it into the spca or learn how to be a good handler/leader?

girlcrazy_420 02-08-2008 08:16 PM

My parents found a trainer in Joe rich who specializes in training boxers. From what I understand they are sending the dog up there. She was fine today with the guy she went at last week. They got along great... she's a little unpredictable at times. My mother is doing a pretty good job at training, this dog was aggresive when we got it, knowing that's how she is and we need to work on it. Our original dog trainer (dogzies) after a month said the dog was too aggresive and he would no longer train her. He recommended to put the dog down. Since than, the dog hasnt been doing training and daycare. (lol) She dosnt leave the house except for the rare occasion. We've got a special pinch colar and a shock colar for when she does go out, just dosnt wear it around the house. The spca would also put her down if found aggressive, so this Joe Rich Trainer sounds like the next best step.

edit: And your comment "dogs dont care what happend to them in the past, they live in the moment" I dissagree with you on this. If a animal was beat its entire life, and starved of food, now having a new owner, do you not think this dog would still have a hate towards us?

if it is as severe as that than yes the dog will be hesitant. but it doesnt take long for a dog to forget with the right handler.

dogs dont dwell or rationalize like humans do. they want to move forward and be balanced.

a dog could be scared of people because of what happend to it, but if you show and approach the dog in the right way it will trust you and before you know it they wag there tail at anyone.

every dog is different of course, but balance, exercise and leadership is all they need.

roughly how far is the mall in Kelowna from the Ramada Inn on Harvey?

I'll be down for work to participate in a seminar on the 27th and would like to go shopping the night before, instead of being bored in my hotel room.

oh that is absolutely wonderful :) thanks

So I get to attempt a engine swap on the bro's car in a few weeks. Going to be interesting. First time attempting a swap on a unfamiliar vehicle. But before this gets done, I'm also in the midst of trying to rebuild the diffs in the YJ. He ran mismatched gear sets and blew out the crown in the rear. Since he's pushing larger than stock tires, theoretically I should be able to go to PYP and pull both front and rear carriers from a 4cyl automatic Jeep and swap them into the YJ giving us a 4:10 ratio. As long as I use the same shims that are in the YJ now, I shouldnt have a problem with miss-alignment. Nice to have a shop to work in, but a hoist would be even nicer :)

^Might want to throw in a "NWS" and maybe a "this contains the sickest shit you've ever seen". I got tricked into watching that a while back. Fucking sick.
