  1. WTB Group 34/78 Batt ASAP

    in Want To Buy

    Posted

    Truck decided I need a new battery already, without even using my new stereo. Need at least one, if not two, group 34 batteries. Need them ASAP, at least one for sure. Lowest possible price shipped to 41129. Side terminals a big plus. Thanks!

  2. Wood & spray-on bed liner?

    You guys might have seen my topic about a mobile stage design a while ago, and it's coming together soon. I'm going to be building a couple "prototypes" on Monday, although it shouldn't be hard at all. I'll be using 5/8" or 3/4" (more likely) plywood, 2x4 frame with 16" high folding legs. Just trying to figure out the best "floor" on it, been thinking about a spray-on/paint-on bed liner-type but not for sure. What would you guys recommend?

  4. Truck problems...why?

    I've got it knocked down to something electrical, leaning towards my alternator. I tried to start the truck again, and it didn't want to stay alive. After a few attempts at starting it, running it at 2000-2500rpm for a min & letting it idle on its own, the battery was for sure dead. Luckily one of the committee member's nephews had a Chevy nearby and gave me a jump and after letting his truck charge mine, it started up & idled no problem.

    Hard to narrow if the issue is electrical or fuel. Sounds like both. Do lights dime at idle as it slowly dies? Get a ddm out there when its dieing. It doesnt sputter at all only when dieing? As its dieing what happens if you quick get on the gas does it rev up normally?

    It revs up like it's nothing. Next time it happens I'll get a video. Lights dim some (mainly because voltage goes from 14v to 12v, so it's a toss up if it's an alt issue.

    Too many quotes. 2001 Chevy Z71 5.3 V8, service engine light flickers on occasionally, but not during this. Around 165k miles on it so far. I'm leaning more towards the alt. I don't think it's the pump exactly, because I can rev it and it runs stable when I have it revved. It doesn't sputter, just stalls if I let it get too low RPM-wise or let off the starter. If it is, looks like I'll be upgrading it sooner than expected. Anyone got a Vortec H/O alt? :peepwall:

    I went to start my truck the other day at the bar. Startup was fine, but as soon as I let off the ignition, the truck slowly died. Did it a couple more times, and it will stay alive if I keep the RPM's up. After a few minutes of driving, I managed to be able to let off the gas at a stop and it would stay alive. It only did it one more time, another night at the bar..My voltage sits around 14-14.4v when running, and I do have my setup on it (never blare it, my electrical's all stock right now). I'm planning to replace both very soon, but would this be a battery/alternator issue? Or does it sound like it's leaning more towards fuel pump/filter issue?

    In this world I think it would be beneficial to have a dash cam lol.

    I ride with my gopro on everytime I'm on my streetbike...not to show off my awesome riding skill :rolleyes: but because if some asshole hits me I want it on camera when it comes down to inurance claims and whos fault it is.

    I've actually thought about doing this, just because of the stupidity of people. Front AND rear facing cameras.

    I know some people have to play music in some form or fashion. Me, I play the soundboard :lol: But seriously, I've been working on my new setup (as you have seen by several topics) and had the chance to meet some awesome bands and work with them. Christian rock, bluegrass, classic rock, & a couple southern rock/country groups. Here's a couple vids of two of the groups I've worked with. The first one was a classic rock group that performed at a Relay For Life walk (hence why everyone's walking around)

    The other is a local southern rock group. The lead singer was featured in the Country Music Road To Fame competition at the Paramount Arts Center in Ashland, but his group was called literally 8 hours ahead of time to play tonight. Great group of guys & the lead has a lot of talent for sure.

    Both videos were taken with my iPhone, so not perfect CD-quality (but a Macbook will soon allow me to record). My sound system was used for both groups, and have had zero complaints so far from anybody.

    Feel free to post videos up of local bands that you or someone you know play in.

  18. High School Teacher Accused of Sex with Student

    If that was ME at 17, and I was lucky enough to have my 5'5" astronomy teacher, Mrs. Froehlick, juggle my balls...I'd be all over that, lol

    :rofl: That made my night.

    Anyways, what's new? :lol: Freshman year, the new SS teacher was caught giving a senior a quickie in her car after prom, and IIRC they're still together :lol: Lucky bastard. Junior year, student teacher slept with a student. Ironically she got knocked up not long after that affair got busted. Nothing new. I hear a nearby teacher getting busted for sexting, boinking, or other sexual acts at least 2-3 times a year, if not more :lol:

    HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- An argument between neighbors landed one woman in hot water.

    That was after one neighbor claims the other sprayed hot water on her and her 2-year-old child. We talked to both sides in what turned into a real-life water fight that ended with an arrest.

    I'm glad I live across the border...kinda. :peepwall:

    P.S. no offense to WV natives, this isn't a crack at you guys, it's just ridiculous how stupid some people can be...
