Resin it's self is not strong. You need to glass and resin if you want strength. Your best bet would be to do the whole thing with fglass and make it look good. Hell, you could custom mount a few tvs or speaker/tweets if you wanted.. possibilities are endless.

THANKS KUMHO!!
Wastehog replied to Berto's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
Kumho says you're welcome! lol Just kidding. I'm glad you and your rim are okay.. Good thing your beads stayed on and protected the tire.. -
They seem promising.. Thanks to you now I'm looking for better brakes for my truck.. (dreaming) and I did a few searches and a few truck mags installed them, but never said anything about the real stopping upgrades. SSBC also carries a line of OE replacement sized, cross drilled and slotted rotors, which you can add to the kit for like $200. But, you can check out summit and pick up slotted and drilled rotors for like $55 a pop.. not too bad. As for about upgrading to bigger rotors, try emailing SSBC and see what they say.. If you do invest in these, do a stock 60-0 test, and then upgraded. Like Steve did with his Wilwoods. Then you will be certain of how much performance you gained. I SAY DO IIIIT!! lol Just think of the thrill you'll have dropping some dough on stopping power lol.

Haha, yeah they don't like to stop. Try working with one that has 25 year old technology.. its worse, lol. I was gonna suggest, maybe doing rear disc, which would help a little bit, but not as much as a big brake kit. One option you have, which is a lot of work.. is run big brakes in the summer and stockers w/ upgrades in the winter, but then again, a lot of money and work to swap em' out every 6ish months. Heres another idea.. Lets say later on you do get a big brake kit.. you could always invest in some cheapo 20"+ rims and ruin those in the winter.. Gotta love living in Northeastern United States.. we get the joys of all the snow and ice and salt.

Translation: Quit bitching until you know if it works or not. If it does, you bitched unnecessarily if it doesn't then come back and bitch about it.. Your going to hold his fucking horses? lol.. I don't think I'd mess with a fucking horse..

is this a battery or alternator problem???
Wastehog replied to Ji553r's topic in Electrical-battery- Alternators- Wiring
It might be that your connections on the window motors are corroded or bad. The newer motors would use more current, because they use more power, because they are newer. A good reason why they use a lot of power is because the power wires are small, so they don't go up fast. I know the ones in my truck are like 14 ga wire for a decent powered motor.. which is kinda small but they work so.. that's all that matters. -
You can use window cleaner like windex on the chrome to clean the bugs off, then hit it with a good car wax. Let it haze, and polish it off. If they get a lil surface rust on the later on down the road, don't be afraid of the coke technique, it works good on surface rust. For cleaning, Windex, and then wax. Damn good shine. If not get some chrome polish..

need a little electrical help!!!!
Wastehog replied to 2000TACO's topic in Electrical-battery- Alternators- Wiring
If you get any type of battery get an AGM battery. Don't get the typical flooded type thats used in cars, get the AGM and if your strapped for cash, look for an optima, they can usually be found pretty cheap used, or they go for like $175-200 at my local Advance Auto.. there's a lot of other batteries tho... -
Steve Urkel 12 years later
Wastehog replied to Wastehog's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
Yeah, he mentions his acting and getting paid 100k a week was his high on life. His mama taught him to look out for the drugs and ish. He said the gig was only supposed to be a guest appearance but the scenes he wasn't in screamed his name. He also wrote 2 of the shows, and they ended up being the top of their year, for that year.. fun facts if you didn't watch his interview.. lol. -
