It was rocky as hell we were on a river bed with a bunch of rocks.

Hey guys, throwing up a Hail Mary here. We live in Charleston and my in-laws live in highlands. We have been trying to get someone to build a handicap ramp but so far we have been ghosted by 3 different contractors after accepting their quotes. My FIL broke his hip and is permanently in a wheelchair now living with us.
Do y’all know of any contractors or are yall contractors who could come out and build us a ramp? Thanks in advanced guys.
For clarification, we need it in built in highlands.

I'm sorry to hear of the injury and the labor problem. Have you also posted this in the Upstate Cruisers clubhouse? They're a lot more local to Highlands, NC, than we are.
Thanks for the heads up. I’ll remember that for next time. Surprisingly we just got a picture from a neighbor on the street of a very nice completed ramp. We still aren’t sure which contractor built it, but I’m sure they’ll bill us. Funny that we’ve been trying to contact them for 2 weeks and the day I make a post here it’s miraculously built!
Anyone know the part name/number for these plastic cowl access covers on the 60 series? I can't seem to find them anywhere or on a diagram. Mine cracked to pieces recently and I want to get a replacement.

I’m sure you can rent it from an equipment rental company. Or maybe even Home Depot.
Just keep in mind.
We had two versions. A lighter one that didn’t really work on the rocky terrain we were working with.
The yellow one I was dragging around was a heavy sucker. Over 100 pounds but it got the job done.
I know you are a big guy but I def recommend you having at least one more person help you if you plan to use the heavier one.
It can get squirrelly when lifting it above your head and trying to place it on the post.
Thanks for that info
Where is the best place (thinking most affordable!) to get OEM 80-Series belt molding? I'm looking for front door R and L sides. I have no idea where I got some many years ago for my green 80 but it was a lot less expensive than the dealer, even with our local discount.
Also, does anybody have any recent experience sending off their seat belts to get restrapped? My contacts for that are many years old.
Also looking for a good source for fender flare gaskets for a 1996 White LX450...preferably not black.

I sent my 60 belts off to seatbelt planet, and I think I sent the one in Sarah’s 80 too. I had good experiences with both.

Amayama has good prices, their shipping fees are not crazy, delivery takes a few days but it is not too bad. I have ordered several times and have never experienced any problems.
Belt Moulding
They have fender flare gaskets in colors that are not black
Hey guys, I already asked in the upstate sc thread but do yall know of a good shop for a PPI on an 80 over in the cashiers area? Thanks in advance and enjoy the holiday!
I think trollholes will be too far for this.

That's tough one. Maybe @jfz80 has a lead from his travels?
For fender flare gaskets I ordered a roll of generic stuff and cut to length, exact same thing that Summit Cruisers sells as a kit but way cheaper. I can't find it now but I think it might have been just from amazon.

Been messing around with A.I. a bit lately (yes I added the periods as an Al people always complaining about AI instead of A.I. gets me down... lol. Actually funny story I have now been called A.I. four times at different coffee shops when they call my order WTF)
Anyway got off track been mostly playing around with it for work but someone sent me a prompt to put in Gemini A.I. and include a pic of my cruiser. This was the end product picture, came out pretty good.

Oh this was the prompt I used, someone posted it in a group chat.
Create a 1/7 scale commercialized figurine of the character in the picture, in a realistic style, in a real environment. The figurine is placed on a computer desk. The figurine has a round transparent acrylic base, with no text on the base. The content on the computer screen is the brush modeling of process of this figurine. Next to the computer screen is a BANDAl-style toy packaging box printer with the original artwork. The packaging features two-dimensional flat illustrations.
@alk747triodad Kenny I also used a pic from one of the original LR logos..... came out pretty good. Now I just need to get a good 3D printer to make the real models... LOL
