  1. Lineup & accident rating starting with the worst, LOL! Waiting for the next one. Lenny rocmoc & Brostar - tie
  2. Wow, I just posted a reply to the other thread that you had to be sick or hurt. Won't be me, I was just before you. Was changing the light out front near the gate. They are real horned steer skulls with lights in them. They are getting old and when I started to install the skull back over the light it broke in half. The steer skull attacked me cutting my forehead, nose and bone spurs cut my arm. I am just about healed up. SO it is someone else out there so the rest of you better be careful. Two of us down. Rolling start is OK. First time can be second, then third & fourth. Each time a rolling start without a shift. I will even do it with you guys so there is a stock comparison. My better 3/4 sent your better 4/5 a reply to an email I found on my OLD email address yesterday or the day before. rocmoc n AZ
  3. Got the bug huh! You're like me, the only time you stop is if you are sick or hurt. Get to feeling better! rocmoc n AZ
  4. We won't know if or how much faster until Quiq drag races Lenny this June.
  5. Only about another 5 hours to get here, LOL! You don't need to sleep.
  6. Anybody, anybody! How am I going to catch Lenny if someone doesn't step up with a gear. HELP, LOL!
  7. We have friends coming in from Santa Fe this weekend so we will be going out for at least one day, Friday. We have a saddle in the nearby moutains I like to ride up to as you can look down over the entire valley. Taks about an hour or more to get there and could take longer if you stop at any of the mines. Welcome to join us (doesn't have to be a Joyner) if anyone is nearby, south of Tucson.
  8. We can all agree that with the closure of Team Joyner in Phoenix prices went up on parts. This is normal if you don't have a supplier or competition. The fix is an active Importer and more dealers selling NEW Joyners so we attract aftermarket players. Without a supply of aftermarket parts & accessories we will ALWAYS be at the mercy of whoever has the parts we need. Simple supply & demand. Couple this with the cost of producing parts for a small population vs. large, Walmart vs the corner store. I have hoped our remaining dealers will treat us fairly but I certainly want them to make money so they DON"T disappear. We need them. You don't have to buy this thing so the price is what the market will bear. My concern is with the critical parts needed to remaining running so if Silverbullet charges extra for this item to keep the price lower on brakes pads or bearing OR stay in business, so be it. I am a big fan of Jarrad and also hope Silverbullet is in my corner when & if I need him someday. DON'T either one of you guys go away, We need you both.
  9. Yeah looks pretty trick!
  10. Welcome, good to have you aboard!
  11. It WILL be.
  12. Cool!
  13. Understand! Only half of the things we planned have worked out this year. Too many things going on! Will see you guys soon anyway. I just need the rear. Already have the front.
  14. Not if I can't find the gear!
  15. Anyone have a rear renegade pinion gear for sale?
  16. Interesting pricing & purchasing method.
  17. Not going to spend enough to pickup someone's payments. RV's are not a great investment, LOL! More a life style choice like driving a Prius.
  18. Sold it in Texas. Was looking on Craigslist in TX and the market looked much better. Listed it in AZ and not a single call in two weeks. The second day in Texas and had numerous calls. Shows you where the economy is better. Nope, taking our time looking. It is a buyers market and is only going to get better for the buyer with the cost of fuel. Looked at one today but was not as described so was there for less than 10 minutes. Going into the big city tomorrow to look some more.
  19. My axles just popped out easily with a little help of a large flat-head screwdriver at the diff. It is the original U-Joint dirveline that would not come out of the trans for me. I finally used the same method you did. Good luck in finding the problem.
  20. I have a Honda CRF450 and the valves HAD to be adjusted at about 6 months after purchase. My diesel Ram's valves had to be adjusted at 60,000. Adjusting valves isn't unusual. Maybe the rest of us should be taking a look at ours? Jarrad, Silverbullet, Garth, Lenny & Flatbed, Do we need to be adjusting our valves at some set mileage in the life of out Trooper?
  21. I am running the Fox 8.5 but hot the coil-over. Still running just the single Joyner stock springs. I am very happy with the improvement. Lenny or Flatbed will have to jump in to sale you on the duel springs. Personally I believe the Joyner Stock setup while was very good and better than the rest of the UTV field was stiff, had too much pre-load, had too much N2 & lacked sufficient damping causing the shock blow-outs.
  22. That is a pretty good pickup in hp. Quiq, can't wait for you feedback. We are going to have to have some really interesting power comparisons at this summers Joyner Adventure / Rally.
  23. What were the results?
  24. Kinarfi, they are called shims. My understanding is they are the same used on the Honda 4-stroke motorcycles. Read that somewhere a couple of years ago. Lenny had adjusted his so he is a good source plus the new guys!
