Holy cow that thing looks awesome!. I'm sure you were very proud to get it out there; I like the pic with you both strapped in grinning from ear to ear. Congrats again

That's $14 bucks cheaper than ebay

I believe you can get one at the Valero right off the freeway, sound about right anybody?

Lookin good! Is that a T3T4turbo? I have one on my first car; same innercooler too. 8 lbs. of boost was plenty for my 2.0L; didn't want to run much higher and end up rebuildind her every season I tig welded all the connectors to eliminate a few of my silicone hose unions; less chance of vibration/ blow apart under boost. It really lookin good. Let us know how she does on the dyno. Your gonna love hearing it spool up on a good hill

Alright, thanks. Is this a synthetic? Also, only to prove my ignorance: MD4S-2D? - I heard the 2D wasn't the one a guy wanted (thin reverse gear or something), but mine says MD4S. Is there a 2D and a 4S, or am I completely clueless? I've dealt with this weight of oil in Jan. on the rigs. 5 gal. at a time for the rear ends... It can really go reaallllyy slow. Thanks for the help

Does anybody have any recommendations as to the intervals of oil change, and or any suggestions on what oil/ weight to run. I try to be faithful to servicing my stuff, and I want to start off the season right, but I haven't read much on what I should do with this trans. I figure that some DDR veterans can help a brotha out.

I wouldn't upsize the diameter unless you are sure it can handle it. Larger tires always look better, but unless your trans has been geared for it, you might find the engine struggling/bogging down on the hills, as this changes your "final gear ratio", so to speak. I had too tall of a ratio when I first started in the buggy scene, and It was a drag until I got it corrected. I ended up with 13.00 tires running a similar engine setup, putting out between 125-140 horses. It limited me to only 60 mph, but that's fast in the sand, and it allowed me to pull the same lines/ hills as my buddies with the v8 cars, because of the low final ratio. I hope this helps; congrats, and have fun with the new toy.

I'll bet! That's got to be hard

Haha- I didn't catch that till I posted it; Does this prove I'm now an addict? Thanks again! Gettin' up every two hours is KILLING me

We are back home, and the fun is only getting started. Already exhausted , but it sure is fun! We had an uneventful surgery, and only 3 days in recovery at the hospital. Momma and Babies are doing great Here are Brooklyn and Bailey...future Dune princesses/ DDR members :moto: Here's momma coming out of the hospital...proud as can be! Jake and papa Thanks again for your prayers!

She's too cute! Thanks to everyone for your prayers , we are heading out the door in a few minutes

Looks good! How are you liking that compared to the rail? I've caught myself thinking about one; but I'm tied down with payments for now :surrender:

^^ My wife and I are going in tomorrow morning to the hospital to deliver our twin girls. The doc says it's time for the lilstinkerbutts to come out. Very nervous about surgery, but we have quite a few friends praying for us! We were told to expect 4 nights at the hospital if everything turns out good. No complications, as of yet, but we'll see... I'll try to get my ddr fix this week, but if not, I'll post a pic or 2 by next week hopefully. Good timing, they'll be here just in time for dune season

nice, congrats

That oughtta pull the hill :ahhhhh: Did you get the cat, or the duramax?

That's ok, I don't like them either

emails are coming in fast and furious...problem solved

Looks like a good deal! I'd be all over this if I could. Good luck!

Wow, I think that was the weekend I test drove my car @ Dumont. I had sand in my teeth for 2 days because I couldn't stop smilin . I cant believe I've had it a year already. Just 36 payments to go I might run up and make a day trip. The dr. says tuesday the 5th for the wifey's c-section, so we'll see how she's doin a little closer to the poker run.

I got my boy a lil 90 quad with the governor and remote kill switch. He's getting better on it, but he really wants to ride it in the sand rather than the back yard.

I checked, and I've got all notifications set to be sent to my email, and I checked and confirmed the correct email address is on file

Daddy, when are we going to the sand?

I haven't been getting email notifications since the upgrade. Do I need to adjust some of my settings, or is everyone encountering this temporarily?

^I'm thinking yah! not really; I had some help from my apprentice: I got some other pics off my phone: The nursery:

Been working on an addition for the baby girls. We have the nursery done, with 2 weeks to spare cuttin it a lil close. I have yet to finish the rest of it, including a new office, game room, mud room, and pantry. All of the exterior, insulation, and electrical is done, but I've been draggin in this heat to get the drywall, flooring, and trim completed. I"m really looking forward to all the rest I'll be getting with 2 newborn babies in the house
