Oh, my feelings are hurt now. Loppy and Keith get an avatar and I don't. Now I'm gonna pout!!

Great time this weekend, even with my start challenged issues. :lol:

Bill, thanks very much for the plugs, I'll have some for you next time we ride together!! I'm pretty sure they made the thing run a lot better than those crappy Autolites!

Lori - thanks again for the Jambalaya, been a long time since I had the "real deal"! :D

Ken - maybe we can get together this week and go over your fabrication needs. I'll be around the house all week and probably this weekend too.

Bill and Kendo gave me some great sites to find out what I need. I LOVE parts lists via exploded views. :D Thanks guys!

I'm just going to go ahead and replace every bushing on the rig. I think that will really tighten up the old gal and it's a good project for finding loose bolts and cracked things. I already found some stuff that could use a gusset here and there and weld up a few minor cracks. Who knows, I might even have to break out a can of Rustoleum gloss black. :) None of it's a big deal. I'm actually looking forward to it.

I'm in no hurry. It will be a few weeks before I can get to anything anyway.

Where's the pics of the crack line? I only took like 25 pics... :P

Just give him some time. He got a great shot of me crushing an old ford station wagon that I might use for a new one.

Sorry dude....I didn't have any action shots.....other than the tow. ;)


I think I'm sunk this weekend. I'm in Omaha, NE right now. I get home Thursday night. Friday I'm around during the day, but at night I have a wedding rehearsal in Jackson....Saturday is the wedding and Sunday is Mother's Day.

The next...I'm wide open.

Found the problem with Matthews quad.
The rear diff takes 4oz. of oil
I must of put 8 to 9oz. of lube in there.
That little plug on the side is not the fill-to point.

How do you check the oil level in the rear diff. of a Polaris Phoenix?
You remove the drain plug, drain and refill with 4oz. of oil. :lol:
What a concept check the service manual. :shock:

I don't suppose anyone found a black left hand Dickies glove in their stuff did they? Just bought those damn things on Friday and I'm missing one.

Your area was spotless after leaving....I did a double check. So one of your "friends" stole it! :wink: Or it's on the trail somewhere.

Donated to the desert gods. You will forever have good karma in the desert.

I have it narrowed down - either Keith took it as a "spare" or I have indeed sacrificed it to the desert gods.

One minor possibility is it's in my chit somewhere and I haven't yet come across it. That will occur at approximately the same time as me opening my new set of gloves. :roll:
