Hey Jim hope you get feeling better. Those hospital socks do the ribs go on the bottom for
traction or on top

 

[Doctor do Little]

All the best and a speedy recovery, Jim.
Cheers
Peter

Those socks are on upside down Jim ( grippy side, I have a few pair of those hospital socks from some motorbike incidents )

I hope you are on the mend and feeling well!

::vibes::

Best of luck, I hope you get well soon.

Get well soon Jim, what will help is some country road trips in a 25 with the windshield down. John

I haven't had a chance to watch it all. I did like the part showing a factory jack and a piece of wood to lift the cruiser by the axle hub. Don't thing I would try if on a front hub where the wheel can turn and as for the rear not sure how it would work on our semi floater axles.

I did get a short PM from Jim yesterday and is doing fine. Taking it easy and staying off the computer.

those are cool videos mike....

found this today...people need to examine their priorities

I believe that was a set up picture and meant as a joke. Trying to show how precious gas is with the cost today. Me I would have done a better job securing that gas can. Everyone knows the lap part of the belt would go around the base of the can and the shoulder part around the neck. The way it is now that can could slip out under tha lap and spill wasting gas.

speechless

X2 that's all I can say. But I guess I shouldn't be the news is full of stories like this all the time. Not surprised anymore driving and seeing kids jumping up and down in the back seat while the driver is texting.

I guess if I spent more time in chat I would have seen my error. https://forum.ih8mud.com/chit-chat/599096-gas-expensive.html

With all this head banging ... Made me remember ...
Jim any updates ? How ya feeling ? Home ... Yes ?

 

[Living in the Past]

Was in contact with Jim during the week and he was doing okay. I let him add when he logs on. Per doctor's orders he limiting his time on the internet.

 

[Cruiser_Nerd]

I'm back home, feel better than before. Just not allowed to do much of anything until I get some rehab and more time under my belt.

Had some time to finish the 40, all the mechanicals were done, just needed finish paint and a good shakedown......































The little guy driving is gripping the seat cushion for all it's worth waiting for the drop..........................this is why 40's don't sport IFS.

 

[My wife said no FJ!]

Sweet 40 !!

 

[Living in the Past]

Hey Jim I need to figure some rehab out. Moving cinders and hauling pines isn't quite the same. But I guess the heart trumps the back everytime. All I have been able to do it look at my toy 40s which are just a little bigger. You need to take a vacation out west. I'll show you what the full size toy 40 looks like But you can't drive it like you do your 40, I think it might cost a little more to put it back on the road.
