Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
top 9 questions to encourage you to update us:
1. are you trapped in an old volts ohm? 2. have you run out of capacitors? 3. has the governor asked you not to charge your ev so you can run your ac? 4. are you not wired for it? 5. is your transformer now gas powered? 6. too much resistance? 7. you now think nucleus was an 80's rap band? (oh that one is actually true) 8. are you shielding us from updates? 9. your potentiameter broken? i know what it is: ELECTRON interference

Moving is never any fun regardless of the reasons.

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
Good to see you are posting again. Only thing I can say is my divorce was the best money I ever spent.
Good luck, Rg

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
I am seriously touched by all your kind words and support, I thought about sharing this and thought I would because if you love what you are doing than you must keep doing it no matter what life throws at you, divorce, cancer, death in the family, all the life roller coaster rides, and you know, this too shall pass.
So far it's been civil, and our kids are of adult age and now car parts can live in the house, know what I'm sayin' |

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
Nothing better then sitting on the sofa with your morning cup of coffee in hand, starring at the coffee table, which is covered with balled up wire, zip ties, shrink tubing, wire loom, Prius, Volt, BMW, Tesla assorted electrical shocky things, misc HF tools.... and just smiling!

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
so Mike seems super nice and took the time to talk to me and said that the OEM parts I bought off eBay are less likely to be noisy unlike the much lower gear ratio after market ones he sells, so we agreed to give these a try
I only paid $120 for mine with tax and shipping on eBay, where as he wanted $400 for his 5.18s or something low ratio like that, I think it would have been fun to try those, but oh well this place is only like 5 miles from my house, so that's a bonus! Last edited by Gregski; Today at 12:56 PM. |
