    Mavic Air (1st Gen) Drone For Sale - SOLD

    I have a 1st gen Mavic Air drone for sale. As trail leader, I just don't have enough opportunities during trips to use this as much as I'd like. This is a full kit, with 4 batteries, two (2) 64gb SD cards, and some aftermarket accessories such as phone holder that makes this a bit more...

    Why

    One word, and its not Laywers, its Physics. The cantilever force at the outer end of the hub bears exponentially more force than the inside flange does.

    Lowest PSI off road on stock mitsu wheels

    Exactly that. They "pinch' the tire bead into place, against the flange of the rim. When your tire buckles because of the low pressure, the bead stays intact and you won't loose air, or get sand/snow into the rim that further breaks the seal...

    Lowest PSI off road on stock mitsu wheels

    I've gone down to 12 in sand, but to go much lower, you might consider running an internal beadlock bladder. https://ok4wd.com/exterior/wheels-tires/wheel-tire-accessories/internal-beadlock

    1996 SR Value

    See, no one wants to say, because a couple years ago $4k would have been a fair offer and they are all privately hoping to buy this off you for a bargain. Nowadays? Heck, you might get $18k at Bring-a-Trailer, who knows? The market is cooling off, but it’s still glowing hot

    Advice on Refreshing a Gen 2.5

    Fuel injector o-rings are like $8 for all of them, and I find the origionals get very hard and non-pliant after a few years. You might want to consider a fuel filter also. x2 on the compression test, and easy to do with the intake off. Which by the way, there is a bolt in the far, far, far...

    Advice on Refreshing a Gen 2.5

    Great looking Monty. I didn't see fuel injector o-rings, or PCV valve.... And, the crankshaft blade, Is that the timing plate? I ask, because there are several versions. Make sure your new one lines up exactly like your original.

    What tires for 3rd Gen?

    I ran 265/75/16's on my Gen 3 and they were about perfect in size. A comparable tire size in 17" wheels would be 265/70/17: Here is what mine looked like on 265/75/16's. By the way, I am a huge fan of the Falkien Wildpeak AT3 tire. quiet on the pavement, excellent off road, good in rain and...

    I go low tech, and storage my field kitchen in an Action Packer plastic storage box, made by Rubbermaid. This has worked for my family of 4 for over 20 years.

    Porsche 924 Turbo - Baja Style

    I looked it up. The normally aspirated 924 had 110hp. The Turbo was a huge bump up to 170hp. That's a pretty big increase. I've only driven my son's non-turbo 944, so I can't really compare.

    Porsche 924 Turbo - Baja Style

    That is pretty cool. In that video, that 4 banger sounds great, but wow is second gear a bit tall.

    Porsche 924 Turbo - Baja Style

    Well, it is a fresh engine with a turbo! And its a manual. Probably fairly fun to drive I would think. My son has a non-turbo 944 and with that rear transaxle, rowing through the gears is an audible experience, the transmission is right behind you, and the gears go snick, snick, snick just...

    How tough is it to source parts for a 2.5?

    It is getting much harder. Go to RockAuto and see what is available in stock verses backorder, and that will be a good indicator. OEM Mitsubishi parts website exist also, but I have found them to be hit or miss. My daughter get into a rear-ender with her Monty and the body shop had a really...
