dunefreak replied to nwtdiesel's topic in Sandrail Talk
Very nice work! Looks like your buddy knows wtf he's doing. What's his name or business? -
When is everyone heading out for New Years?
dunefreak replied to Just Mike's topic in Dumont Happenings
Right on! Terry (and Vegas Style) will be there before us. The rest of our crew should be pulling in Friday morning I believe. -
hahahaa Check with Butch's or NV Offroad Buggy if you are in Vegas. I think ynot has picked them up from one of those guys in the past.
-
Definitely too late to order any new sizes, but I have a handful of extras from the last order to choose from. I'll be out there on the 28th. PM me and we can meet up. I can also leave it with GTP Offroad at vendor row. Either way.

Merry Christmas or Bah Humbug? I don't know if it's just me, but it seems this year the Christmas spirit just isn't in the air this year. Some years we do a traditional dinner, drink Wasail and have decorations up, but this year it came up so fast we aren't doing much. With all the dune trips lately getting stuff fixed and prepped, I don't even have time to think about putting up decorations. It's not like I'm really against it, but this year it's not really happening for me. Half my family is either working or not in town which doesn't help. It doesn't seem like I'm the only one. Even around town it doesn't feel like Christmas. So with that said- Bah Humbug, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone! We'll soon be celebrating with "family" in the sand.

That makes sense because my car doesn't move at all right now!

Who else is coming out this weekend? There's gotta be more. I'm thinking since there might be a handful of DDR people out there, maybe we should do a good old fashion South Pole meetup, Saturday at 2pm and do a group ride to follow. -
36,700 miles- in the topic
-
I have a riding buddy that just did Primm to Dumont on his dual sport. Waiting to hear back from him now to see if he has the GPS tracks.
-
The fence is fairly new, that's why I mentioned it.
-
Pacific Customs didn't carry them either.
-
hahaaa UPDATE: disregard! I got through to Gear One and they have everything in stock! I payed for overnight delivery for tomorrow.
-
Just called them and they don't stock any but might be able to order them from Gear One. I'm thinking Gear One might be closed for holidays. If I can't get a hold of them, they won't be able to either.
-
I have a set of the Gear One 930 Super Micro Stubs on my car that are spanked. I'd like to upgrade to their chromoly ones but I'm having no luck finding anyone that carries them at all. I tried Butch's & NV Offroad buggy with no luck. Kartek doesn't carry any of their stuff either. I tried calling Gear One and they didn't even answer their phone. I left a message. Any suggestions? I'm willing to pay for overnight shipping from wherever so I have my car for this weekend.

Luckily it's leaking at the front tank around the 3/4 level so I can get away with still using it in the meantime. After this trip I will have to bring it in for a new tank though.
-
Oh no! So sorry to hear. My thoughts are with you and your family, Phil.
-
hahaa it's an optional thing. You don't HAVE to use it. It's pretty easy though.

Now you will be able to tag other members in your post and they will get a notification that you mentioned their name. (just like Instagram & Facebook). Your notifications are set by to default to notify you by inline notification (little blip at the top of the screen AND by email). To adjust your settings, just go to notification setting in your profile. To tag a member, just type @ and their screen name with no space like this. @ @@ynot @@vegas style etc For now, you will have to know exactly how to spell the member's name, but in one of the next forum update releases, there will be a popup for name suggestions as you type.

Well I got the car all torn apart last minute to replace the hub bearings for maintenance since they were getting a bit sloppy and I found what I expected to find- the hubs are spanked. I am hoping Gear One can overnight me a set or NV Offroad or Butches has a set in town. We're still going regardless. Worse case scenario I'll be on the quad and Anna will bum a seat in a friend's car. I'll bring the damn KTM if I have to. Too many friends are making this trip and we've been planning on it for a while so we're in regardless! -
I would need you to show me on the map what area you're talking about. I know the majority of the north end is fenced off because of the lizard issue years ago. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk
-
I'll check with Johnnie Walkers. If they don't sell or recommend anything, they'll be the ones installing a new tank. I don't feel like messing with it.
-
That seems to be the consensus. Time to shell out even more hundreds of dollars! This sh*t is getting old.
-
Oh perfect site to go to for Dumont info. lol I already have it mapped out too. I'll try posting a map later. It's an Internet Explorer issue with the editor on the forum. Use Google Chrome instead. There's a topic about it in the help section.
-
No because there is a fence out there now and that area is off limits. You would have to go down past the entrance and cross the river or enter into the sperry wash from the camp area if a trail allowed. The Sperry Wash is the trail head you see off to the left just before you cross the river at the concrete pad. It's labeled the Amargosa River on the map.
