New host and new $$ problem. PLEASE READ EVERYONE

Well it's been a huge pain to get all this done but we are finally hosted on a much better and reliable system. Large pics should work great now and you might notice the pages are loading faster. There may be a few bugs to work out but so far it's better.

I came close to giving up on this whole ...

Garage invite! Emergency place to stop in Nevada...

I wanted to invite any Pinz or Mog owner that might have an emergency issue to my new shop.

If you find yourself in the Reno, Lake Tahoe, Rubicon Trail, Carson City area, coming up the famous 395 highway or 50, and have a problem, feel free to limp on over. I have an acre with room to park big ...

Re: Sound Control: General theory and Pinz specific issues.

Very nice. I did a K that looked kinda like that, although I went over the wheel wells too. Made a nice difference.

Re: New ARB Slimline 100 battery

Semi-solid-state? Another one enters the market but way too pricey for now.

Re: Stupid me.

Boost is just a higher amperage setting to help spin your starter.

What did you mean by "power is available"? What's telling you that?

Re: Stupid me.

How do you know power is available? Test each battery?
You should be able to start it while charging with no problem.

Re: Sound Control: General theory and Pinz specific issues.

Yes but it's not good for floors or engine bays. It's more of a cavity filler, like inside walls, ceilings, etc. I used it in a syncro van to fill in the sliding door and to make panels on the side walls, small pieces behind the dash etc. In the Unimog Im going to fill in the wall behind the seats ...

Re: Sound Control: General theory and Pinz specific issues.

I'd consider making a large removable floor cover instead of that rubber pad. The rubber is just transmitting sound waves right through it. It's not actually a good insulator for sound, especially without a decoupling material under it.

One of the Gwagens I did started with spraying the floor with ...

The next SCOUT

This video with Jay Leno sums up what's coming from Scout. This is the most appealing of the new stuff to me. Battery plus a motor if you want it. Solid rear axle. Locker. An actual chassis!

An EV truck worth building, finally. Slate

If it's all true, I think this could be the new, practical, thing for around town use. Roll up windows, nothing fancy, under $20k.
I know I could use one.
