Had a great time hanging out with everyone, 

was fun to see all the buggies and fellow duners,  

Broke a hub, self-inflicted,  two lug nuts where loose,  everyone pitch in to get the car out of there,  amazing, big thanks to Josh for the trailer, was a big help, 

rolled the car over at walking speed,  went to cross over and was steep,  the rear tire slid in a hole and caught the hole, then went over,  Mark and Jared made it, unfortunately Josh got the same hole and flipped over in front of me.  that will be a good story later.   

thanks again Pete, always a great time. 

Will be there wont miss it, 

So on weeks his is the same front end, the Front is a dunebuggy.com sold by Tabzone,  weeks we where doing the same front to his stevenson offroad chassis and then talked Dave at DD to use it on one of his cars, 

My front end is different mine has more flat plate, where the tabzone has more tube to hold it together both great front ends,  

It will be a more beef cake when it is done,  

Thanks for sharing, only 6-7 weeks till the holiday, will be interesting, 

new front end going on, 

Now lets start cutting away the front, 

Last Halloween Mark had a SXS turn in front of him,  The FP front end had a lot of tube in it, but the connection points where far and few, so when he got hit, the front end just moved over, 

The best, was to put on a new front end that was stronger,  

Below are some pics of the process, 

do a 9'' Kennedy stage 3 or a 2, I can get you the discs or Kartek typically has them,  if you have a 9'' already you can send them in to repuck them, 

me and Ilogian Was going to have some wood delivered Friday from Lenard in Pahrump  

Will be there for sure, 

Was a relaxing week for us, mostly chilled and watch the carnage happen, 

it was amazing, feels like half the trip is cut out lol

• rear sensor with wiring 
• this works with your phone with the lippert app

front jacks use same mount as all electric jacks,  rear and middle jacks will need mounts or if you trailer was built past 2016 it should have the mounts on the chassis,

Here you go. https://govtribe.com/opportunity/federal-contract-opportunity/ca-ftbl-dumont-dunes-1-dumont-dunes-road-6982af22b000013-1#

 

Thank you , looks like Granite Construcion was, low bidder, 

This, is not how this works, first they will put it out to Bid, has this Bid yet,  

Then unlike normal bids, It is a Federal job,  so the Bid Results will be reviewed for 30 day,  

After the 30 Days if no bidder protests the bid, then they have 60 days for notice to proceed, after notice to proceed you will then see work start, 

This will only start if the Bid meets the requirements of the bid package, for example if the budget is 1,00,000,000 and the bid comes in over 10%, Then it might go back out for bid or bid review.  

So after the Bid is awarded, bid bonds are met, then they will have notice to proceed,  all and all this could take 6 months, 

Does anyone of a link to the Project bid, or bid results, 

If this is a CMAR or Design build, then it could take a year for design before it goes into review.
