My trailer is stood on end and then using the safety chain it is locked to an eye bolt on the shed. It will not stop someone that is serious about stealing it but it will at least slow them dow a little or even stop the casual thief. Its main reason is to be sure that the wind or a neighbor child can not tip it over. I also keep a hitch ball that was cut off just below the ball in the coupler and a good trailer lock on the coupler to stop those that will drop a locked coupler onto a bolt head to get the trailer home to where they can work on the lock with proper tools. My RV is stored on 4 jack stands with no wheels on it. The wheels are kept indoors out of the sun and weather. makes it hard to steal without a flatbed tow truck.

Oh to be young with reflexes and hand - eye coordination again........... Great flight, I'll never be good enough to half of that stuff. I'll just continue to dull everyone's senses with rum so that my flying looks good. -
My truck is suffering from a bad case of chemical weight reduction. The rust is coming thru from the inside in areas that there is no access to the inside. I am not a body man by any stretch of the imagination. I am not looking to restore it to like new appearance just to stop the cancer and cover the holes to keep it from getting worse and stop the whistling in the wind. I was looking at POR15 or Rust Bullet. But I have no idea of how to get it to the insides of the areas that are rusting. The rust has created plenty of holes stick things in there. Is there some kid of a wand spray gun that can be had for not to much cash? I was then going to fix the areas with glass cloth and epoxy resin, followed by some Bondo to smooth it out a little before I buzz bomb it.

Maybe I can even drag along a couple of the other members from the Milwaukee area.

I was planning on corrupting/introducing this bunch to my world famous IRCHA class rum balls at some MDs this summer. They just seem to work so well on a Friday night. Maybe need to bring a night ship to complete the experience............ -
That has to really suck. Some times it is better to not post and just watch for it to show up so that you can then go to buy it with a LEO as your helper. Check your insurance carefully. On my policy the trailer is only covered while connected to the tow vehicle. Even to the point that if the ball were to break and the trailer took off on its own and hit another vehicle, it is not covered. I specifically asked these questions of my agent and he had to check with the main office. For me a trailer is only really covered if it has its own policy. It is the same for my little trailer for behind the bike or the big RV for behind the truck.

Go for it. Look at all of the fun Kic is having with his seals......... My 88 is not leaking, so when I get my progressives I ain't touching those seals. I have 45K on it.

And if you have the manual trany, it will not handle the torque for long. That is why you could only get the 350 with an automatic. As it was I had issues withe the manual trans in my 91 formula.

Rebuilding and Modding my 83
Flyinfool replied to icebrrg3rd's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Famous last words. Ranks right up there with "hold my beer............" Since you are so close we really need to meet. I knew I couldn't be the only venture rider in Milwaukee county. I was thinking of doing a M&E next month. If you need a hand, or at least someone to harass you while working let me know. I can break anything. -
Rebuilding and Modding my 83

If you need misc parts for the engine let me know. I have an almost complete but disassembled engine from an 85 with a bad 2nd gear. I'm not to far away from you. -
Yes we all know the 2nd gens are all a little special, that is why the 1st gens always stop at the next ice cream stand to wait for them.....

I always figured that these stories from computer help desks were just made up stuff. After all, no one can possibly be that clueless. Until my mother called me to find out what to do because the mouse pointer was in the middle of the screen but the mouse was all the way to the very right edge of the desk and she needed to click on something on the right edge of the screen. I now have to believe every single one of the stories I hear from the help desks. Including this one.

Sure, bring up another one of my fun expensive hobbies. Now I have to run to the hobby shop on my way to the gun store.......... I cant afford them either, but that never stopped me.........
-
The Thompson Contender is one of the more popular. I have the Magnum Research Lone Eagle, and the other one that was popular was the Remington XP-100. All 3 come chambered for and can handle, big rifle cartridges.
-
Dang it anyhow. Posting up threads like this. This is just nuts. We should not be allowed to talk about such things here. Aren't there rules about posting stuff about another fun expensive hobby (guns) in a forum that is for a different expensive hobby (bikes)? Now I have to go and visit the gun store.....again......
