Back in July, after years and years of wanting one, I finally bought a motorcycle. I decided to go with a sportster since it's more of a bare bones bike with plenty of aftermarket support to build it out to just about anything you can think of. At first I was going to do more of a drag style...

A few updates to the bike

Getting the fit dialed in with some new parts. Next up will probably be a new seat.

The Forged UCA from Rough country is fairly new and I haven't seen any feedback on them, so I figured I would throw together a brief review/comparison for those who might be considering them. I had the original RC Tubular arms on my truck for a little over 2 years (over 50k miles) when the ball...

Some background.... So about 2 weeks ago, I ordered a big new toolbox for work. I wanted to go on and get something that would last throughout the rest of my career. I ended up upsizing quite a bit, so the box I currently have was going to be a bit small. I did some looking around and couldn't...

I want to start this of by saying this is strictly for discussion of the below topics. In no way am I trying to challenge what we, as a community already know about these "stretched levels" that are on the market. I simply want to discuss one component in general - CV Axles. When people install...

Can someone make me a new Sig using one of these pics? Figured it's time for a new one since the drop is long gone. Dean's Silverado by Chris Farragher, on Flickr Dean's Silverado by Chris Farragher, on Flickr Dean's Silverado by Chris Farragher, on Flickr Dean's Silverado by Chris Farragher...

Ok, so as many of you know, I keep bending these soft as hell 22s. Well I found yet another bent wheel last night, making #5. I'm fed up, so I'm getting rid of them. This is where CGM comes in - I need some help figuring out what direction I need to go. I'm basically down to 3 options and I'm...

Like the title states, I have a 2/3 drop kit for sale. Consists of drop coils with adjustment spacers for the front with drop shackles, ubolt spacers, and shocks for the rear. All components are belltech. Located in Georgetown, KY. Asking $250. Willing to ship, can negotiate shipped price...

Had the opportunity today to get together with Connor (@cvand789) this afternoon and do a photoshoot with the two trucks. We've been planning on doing this for a while now, but something always came up keeping it from happening. Regardless, I had a great time meeting another forum member and we...

I'm looking for a flip kit, shocks for 7" rear drop, spindles, and helper bags. Let me know what you have and lets make a deal.

I Finally broke out the camera again (Nikon 1 J1 w/ 10-30mm lens) and took a few pictures of the truck over the past few days. Here are a few from each spot. All are the original image, no edits or filters. DSC_0595 by Dean Hagerman, on Flickr DSC_0599 by Dean Hagerman, on Flickr DSC_0600 by...

Figured I would keep all of this info here to keep it easy to find for anyone looking for the same info. To start of, the truck has a 5.3l LC9 with the 6sp auto transmission with 3.42 gears. I'm looking to do some bolt on mods before I go forward with a tune on the truck. I currently have an...

I keep running across mixed responses on the web, so figured I would post up here. Yesterday I got ran off the road and ended up bending a wheel. It's on the inner lip and it still holds air. So can it be fixed, or just replaced? A new wheel is $162+shipping.
