My take on bark, is that it doesn’t burn well. It’s always damp, even on dry wood. Bugs always reside there, produces lots of smoke and ash. Even birch bark, sure it’s a great fire starter, but when you first light it, it has an inky black smoke. I’m thinking a chimney system could do without...
Not sure what’s for riding down the simonette. But there was a nice spot by the creek somewhere around 40-50. Been a few years since I’ve been down that road. Used to be able to free camp right off Hwy 43 at the Waskahigan River. Just north of the bridge on the west side of the road. Nice little...
I’m with Cooperators solely and have life as well for me and the misses and I don’t think it’s as high as yours. I’d have to sit down and figure it all out though.
My iPhone is the same way. It’s not using double the memory, even though it shows the pic in 2 spots. Kind of annoying yes. And if you delete from recent pics, it deletes it everywhere.
Perhaps it’s just to maintain water levels within Abraham lake, but I read elsewhere that it was to maintain/repair the gates. They did that on the Paddle Dam at Rochfort Bridge a few years back and dropped the levels way down.
This is the same basic one I had. Older model and has a Honda engine on it vs the kohler. Was a good unit until the wife froze the pump and cracked it.
That one will be effective and handy in the fact you don’t have to completely disassemble to grease. But it’s a one size kinda deal. Only real draw back.
I’ve always wondered why they don’t use tapered bearings more often as well, as they’re designed to take a load at multiple angles. That’s...
I’d have to have one in hand, but I bet with a small pick tool, that rubber seal pops right out. Most of these atv bearing aren’t truly sealed. More like a dust gaurd. The grizzly ones look similar. And this tool is really handy for packing grease as it’s universal for size.
Grease technically never wears out. It does one of 2 things. Gets dirty or gets hard from not being used. Look at any truly sealed bearing out there. U joints on a chev are a good example. How many 30-40 year old trucks are still out there with original u joints that have never been serviced...
They don’t. Doesn’t matter the brand either. Basically empty. All Balls, Kimpex, Moose Racing all come from the same place. Same package and all. Just change the card in the kit. Pop the seals and there’s barely enough grease in there to make it roll smooth in your hand. Hold it up to the light...
I have some Red Ram stuff right now. Seems to be good quality so far. I think my old tub was Quaker state. Doesn’t matter much to me really as long as it’s proper wheel bearing/axle grease.
It’s a comparison of volume vs pressure though. Volume alone won’t get anything clean whereas pressure will. It’ll suck because it’ll take forever from the lack of volume for sure. But being on a lake lot or acreage or wherever that doesn’t have a pressurized town system, I’d sacrifice volume...
Not necessarily. Go to a car wash and use the fire hose. Sure it’s gonna blast all the big chunks off fast, but it’s not gonna be clean. That’s where the pressure comes in, along with heat. Cold water doesn’t get anything clean either.
3000 psi is a must. I had a simoniz gas jobber. With I think the Honda 160 engine. Ran great. No issues with it whatsoever ever until The wife left it out last spring and it froze that night, cracking the head. I used it for everything you mentioned. And I ran hot water through it all the time...
The CSPC did a huge study on the 3 wheeler. They found no inherent flaws with the design. Although they had a lot of recommendations as far a warning labels, user manuals, safety courses etc etc. They were never banned as most believe. The big Japanese 4 along with Polaris signed an agreement...
This is a 2006 Yz450F bike conversion using the DT kit. Comes with custom triples, front hub and axle and a sub frame. Need the donor bike and yfz quad as well. Swap the triples and use the dirt bike forks. Take quad swing arm and cut like an 1/8” sliver off the one side to fit it in the bike...
