LDowney replied to the thread Local Event Information.After Ted Turner's henchmen effectively closed Georgia beyond FS roads, our view of local has needed to adjust to the resulting reality.

If you're lucky enough to have a 14B-T (or 15B-T), you may have noticed that many 14B-T specific parts are out of production. However, there is good news. The 14B-T was adapted into a series of marine engines by Yamaha, such as the ME370. These...

Picked the troopy up from Terrain Tamer. @orangefj45 did the final check and wheel alignment. Replaced the H151 with a H152. I drove it home. First long (100 miles) trip. Love the way it handles. IP needs a bit more tuning. The turbo lags...

Picked up the 74 this morning. Cruiser Outfitters for the win. I had no idea how bad it actually was. It's a totally different vehicle now.

I'm back in business. Picked up the 74 at Cruiser Outfitters this morning. It is an amazing transformation. Kurt's crew did an outstanding job. Now I can confidently bring it and pull the Kimberley.

I want to publicly thank @joekatana because last Friday my 1HDT 74 series was running hot. Tons of crap in the radiator so I flushed everything and replaced with an HDJ79 radiator. After buttoning up the swap I checked my belts… And the whole...
