    Patrick Leonetti. You know I had a teacher named Mrs Leonetti in JR high back in the early 80's here in Tucson. Any relation?

    Hi-Lift Problems / Malfunctions

    Very nice to have a rep from the company come in and offer their 2 cents. Thanks. I personally never have issue with mine. It's stored in the rig and before each use I hit all moving parts with WD40. It's always worked just fine for me. EDIT: I should clarify. Earlier in this thread I stated a...

    Pico's are coming, Pico's are coming!!!

    From what I understand, REI is in bed with the Sierra club. From what I understand, they (Sierra) have a strong anti OHV stance. I've been buying stuff from REI for more than a dozen years despite all that.

    Pico's are coming, Pico's are coming!!!

    Yup, sold the Kermits. They were just to small. I actually have 2 of the GCI Folders pictured above. Much more comfy for my big ********. We kept one of the Kermits for Zoe.

    250lb weight rating! So now you're discriminating against large bodied individuals. Well, we'll see about that. Anybody have the number for the ACLU :ylsmoke: You know I'm joking right...

    Calmini products??

    Thanks for the responses! The lift kit is kind of a secondary thought. Her X is already lifted, but I think it was pieced together and I really don't know much about lift kits on IFS vehicles. I'll have let her drive my Cruiser one weekend and spend some quality time rolling around under the X...

    Calmini products??

    I'm a newbie to Nissan offroading even though my first 4x4 was an 88 Pathfinder 2 door. My wife now has a slightly modded 2000 X and I was wondering what was the general consensus of Calmini products like their rear bumper and lift kits. Is there a better place to look for rear bumpers with a...

    I found the sweet round!!

    Moly is not a corrosive compound. It is an excellent friction reducer in sliding applications. When I was in the Navy, moly was spec in all the greases we used on radars. Moly fortified grease is the spec grease for birfield joints in 80 series cruisers and is the best grease for the slip yoke...

    I found the sweet round!!

    Out here, big game is by lottery. Deer is centerfire, muzzleloader or archery. Elk is the same and Javelina are by centerfire or H.A.M. (handgun, archery, muzzleloader). I've got an Elk tag for this winter :wings: Anyone else here reload?

    I found the sweet round!!

    I get the feeling you reload as well. Do you ever moly-coat and have you ever used Tubbs bore finish kit? I've been moly-coating mine for years. It's a friction reducer. It helps reduce copper fouling of the barrel and has a small increase in muzzle velocity. I haven't used Tubbs kit and I...

    I found the sweet round!!

    Yeah, I only plan on using this round for long range shots, which is actually quite common out here for whitetail. It's kinda rare out here to get whitetail under 200yds. Very wary little buggers and easy to spook. I know that.270 is a big game rifle, but I kinda chuckled at your statement. My...

    I found the sweet round!!

    I reload my own rifle cartridges and have been for a number of years. I recently picked up something new for my .270win. Sierra 135gr hollow point boattail matchking. Sierra doesn't recommend this round for hunting because match bullets have a thin copper jacket and will basically disintegrate...

    5 day coolers?

    I've been using the Coleman 5 day extreme with great success. I take 3 1gal Ziploc freezer bags and fill them about 2/3 full of water and set them in the deep freezer 3-4 day before a trip. I put them in the cooler and pack around them. I got 6 days in 85-95 degree weather and still had ice in...

    Need help with potential 80 purchase

    Careful with the HG issue. Like Andre said, the head could be toast by now and then you looking at some bank. Yes they are aluminum heads. There are actually a number of good 80's out there for sale in the 5-8k range. Check craigslist, autotrader, ebay and the classifieds on ih8mud.com. I would...
