Well me and a buddy are planning to go out tomorrow and explore a bit and perhaps toss a rod into a lake... send me a PM if your interested in going. We will probably go for an early start! ]]> CA.BC- Vancouver Island Cruisers Toshi38 http://forum.ih8mud.com/ca-bc-vancouver-island-cruisers/335387-going-out-tomorrow.html http://forum.ih8mud.com/ca-bc-vancouver-island-cruisers/335058-gm-1-wire-alternator.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 01:41:10 GMT Does anyone know of any one wire GM alternators that are a direct swap in at least that I don't need to make a new bracket?

Looks like my alternator got tired of trying to charge that optima....

I'm going through the forums now... but perhaps someone knows off the top of their head. ]]> CA.BC- Vancouver Island Cruisers Toshi38 http://forum.ih8mud.com/ca-bc-vancouver-island-cruisers/335058-gm-1-wire-alternator.html http://forum.ih8mud.com/ca-bc-vancouver-island-cruisers/334977-shipping-surrey.html Thu, 19 Nov 2009 19:05:43 GMT anyone heading over to the mainland I need a swaybar shipped. anyone heading over to the mainland I need a swaybar shipped. ]]> CA.BC- Vancouver Island Cruisers jinzuke http://forum.ih8mud.com/ca-bc-vancouver-island-cruisers/334977-shipping-surrey.html http://forum.ih8mud.com/ca-bc-vancouver-island-cruisers/334869-electronic-things.html Thu, 19 Nov 2009 07:41:34 GMT Ok so I poked around about LED's that blink...

If you want one that just blinks always... ignition on or off the LED is about 1 dollar... and the resistor is a couple of pennies.

I'll tell you which resistor and I can order a bunch of LED's and resistors if a few people want them. If your too lazy to solder it up I can probably throw a bunch together for about $3 each or so.

If you want it to switch off when no ignition is on. I can draw up a bit of circuitry and that will probably cost closer to $5-6

Let me know if your interested in either option.

Also I was thinking of making an intermittent wiper controller for the 40 series... (and any other car without intermittent wipers provided it has working wipers to begin with)

Is anyone interested in this?

Basically you would add a button/switch for power and a knob to control the speed of them to your dash. I was thinking I'd like to be able to control it anywhere from once every 4 min to constent speed.

If there's any other electronic bits you can think of that you'd like let me know... maybe I'll want them too! ]]> CA.BC- Vancouver Island Cruisers Toshi38 http://forum.ih8mud.com/ca-bc-vancouver-island-cruisers/334869-electronic-things.html http://forum.ih8mud.com/ca-bc-vancouver-island-cruisers/334859-too-much-%24.html Thu, 19 Nov 2009 06:21:35 GMT OK, I'm embarrassed - I've got $10 too much cash and can't sleep until I figure out why...

I'm hoping I forgot to record a dues payment, of perhaps forgot to give someone their change from a $20 tonight

so, here's my record of who's paid:
September 23:

• Jason Coakley
• Vern Benn
• Steve Shulhan
• Stephen Lau
• Jason Thomas

November 18:

• Cam Woodsend
• Jeremy Lin
• Morgan Lewington
• Dana Benn

Did some one else pay me? Or, did I short some one change tonight?

Sun: came home via P.A left nanaimo about 830, Rain...heavy, Wind....stong, Water level....Holy fucking shit! Aside from some lil flow overs by franklin lake (paved section) the rest of the road was road was ony mildly terrible. I got just ppast the Duncan turn off and BLAM i am driving in 2.5 feet of water just looking for dry spots in between the washouts. we had decided to take our jeep so it is only stock hight with 235 m/t's on it. well boys i almost swamped it with the wife and daughter it there, and managed to rip the bumper of when i jammed it into reverse to stop from going to deep ( it had a pretty god flow to it to). what a night, after driving all that way and being about 5 klm from the house. we had to turn around and go to the family in Nanaimo 7.5 hour round trip.... but i did get to Learn the " back way in over the caycuse summt" one of the locals led us in the next day . So what did i learn from this little experience. 1. Get a fucking snorkle, not nessesarly for being crazy but for a piece of mind that if i have to cross a washing washout or flood your motor will not die in the middle of nowhere sticking you n the middle of the water with your wife to scream at you.!!! 2. Communication is Key, if we would swamped ourselves and couldn't get the engine started again no one would have found us there for at least 12-18 hours.( truth be know that even if we would have had a snorkle and made it through the wash out there was a really big tree down blocking the road after that) so when weather is iffy we will alway call ahead. 3. I better kick my level of prepareness up a few notches!!
4. always bring the LANDCRUISER ( and get a snorkle lift and lockers)


I am sure there will be more to come.... ]]> CA.BC- Vancouver Island Cruisers Nitinahtcruiser http://forum.ih8mud.com/ca-bc-vancouver-island-cruisers/334787-nitinaht-cronicals.html http://forum.ih8mud.com/ca-bc-vancouver-island-cruisers/334304-15-seconds-fame.html Tue, 17 Nov 2009 17:56:35 GMT Last night I was watching Island news about the flooding over there and one of the clips had a...
