Wow 10 hours per minute...... you are going to have to show this video "pay per view"
I am sure John will call me at work when you post it.

[Mike]

I don't know. I literally have over 30 hours already into editing the first 3 minute video and am working on it off and on when I get time. I want it to be the best one yet. Sorry for the delay but I hope it will be worth it.

Mike, when are you going to post up the video of the April ride?

Keith's helmet is accounted for, so it must belong elsewhere. Thanks

Ralph
It is ours
And we have a helmet that belongs to Dan or Keith or someone
I will get john to post a picture of it.

It may be ours, because we came back with one that is shiny, and I don't think it is ours. Is Dan missing a helmet?

deedee, i just realized the helmet thing you were talking about. i put it in your ox the morn i left. ( you were still snoozing !! ).i think it was dan that said it was left in his ox, and thought it was john or scotts. since you were the closest to them, i dropped it off. if it's not theirs, i don't know whose it is. busco mystery !!!! johnboy. p.s. keep at those lug nut's.

Ralph, is that what was making the noise you heard at Busco?

Good idea. I always use anti seize and never had a problem but I like the acorn nut idea.

[Noel Woods]

It's for those reasons that I use acorn style lug nuts. I saturate the studs before I put the acorns on, then put some lube inside the acorns then install. Since I switched to this technique a few years back, have not had these problems anymore.

Swamps are a very corrosive environment and everything we can do to put off the rust and make the parts last longer, the machines will go that much more.

[Mike]

I had something similar happen to my Max IV. In my case, I could get the nuts off but the studs were just a little too big for the holes in the wheel, causing me not to be able to get them off. I knocked the tire, kicked them, hit them with a sledge hammer, etc. and they wouldn't budge. I finally had to use a grinder to grind the studs off so I could get the wheels off. It was not fun. Good luck.
