  1. the granite i used to run has a powerleash, it worked not bad concidering it was on an 11 litre motor...its a compression brake, sorta like a Jake Brake.....opens the exhaust valve at the top of the compression stroke....basically using the vehicles momentum to run the engine as an air compressor to waste kinetic energy.....
  2. That's awesome!!! Thanks for posting
  3. as far as i know, EM indicates a Maxidyne torque curve engine....pulls from around 1000rpm...what transmission is in the truck? A straight 5 or 6 speed would also back this up
  4. Notice the first line on the safety sign on the boom.... .....almost as if it knew.... looks like it split the frame under the deck....Must've been some hit....
  5. that run-away wagon did a pretty good job holding its lane.....lol. Reminds me of last summer going to Sauble Beach and seeing a 3/4 ton van pulled over with his 20' utility trailer jammed up to the jack leg under the hitch.....and 3 dummies standing aoround scratching their heads holding prybars....just move the van ahaed and i GUARANTEE it will be easier to lift.....next time I bet someone will check the lock/pin
  6. 1989 K-car was mom and dads first new car......dad totaled it when i was about 8, some guy bought it off the front lawn of a family friends place as a wreck, and jammed a v8 inn it.......saw it on tv years ago......
  7. F**K YEA!!!!!! have fun!!!!!!!
  8. after years of being left onm, hit, bumped and abused by little ones, my beloved bargain 60" rear projection TV has died.....temporarily replaced by the tiny 37" lcd from the bedroom.....sigh got the TV, matching stand and surround sound from an old neighbour for 450$......says on the back it was built in 2007, did not bad i guess..... now....to find someone with a van or truck to "help" (drink beer) get it to the electronics drop off.....
  9. I'd imagine so....can't say I've ever seen one tho, closest I've come is wiggle wagons for roll off cans. Most pups around here are triaxle pintle setup for dumps.....
  10. There's a guy in Cambridge that does site work with tractor/pup like that....he hooks it to the fifth wheel.....looks odd with so many damn wheels in such a short span, but he can likely fill the box and still be legal....

  14. i tried to cancel the home phone/internet bundle at the house a few years back, because the cable company could give me a better rate...."Jim" on the phone said "keep your service with us and we'll save you 25% for a year"......i asked what happens after a year..."it goes back to regular rates"......"so, we'll be doing this again" i said...."yes, more than likely" he responds..."You can keep throwing and shit might stick to the wall, but I'm gonna cancel my services with you"...... i wish i knew how to type an accent from Pakistan, his name likely wasn't even Jim...... Worked out great, 6 months later had to sell the house or the bank was gonna take it, and the cable company didnt have termination fees, something the phone company used and would have added to the headache/wallet ache of having to sell....
