Pretty sure those are the same header that truck had since the Perrin's owned it.

Well the new owners of the LMD truck posted a picture of it.

It is now owned by Garners Towing. Which were the people who painted the red and yellow avenger vegas schemes.

Local show I went to a few years back.

Bigfoot 4 also ran something similar to this as well. Not sure what the advantage was if any. But in those days people tried anything to get the upper edge.

Minus the fact that it says pedo patrol pack, I would rock that in a event. Mainly cause I am a avid collector or scooby doo stuff. 

The only reason i never wanted to use the rip saw, was the beams are not in line or around the body. So if you roll it the body mesh will go underground.

Usually you can just ask nicely to help out. There are clubs for track crewing. Theres some people floating around here that can help on the track crew thing.

Here what feld has posted for Crew Cheif http://www.feldentertainment.com/Careers/JobDisplay.aspx?id=52722

And here is there post for a Technician http://www.feldentertainment.com/Careers/JobDisplay.aspx?id=52723

that could help you out for starters. Some on here will say though you have to love this to do this. Its more of a hobby than career.

O i know that CDL's can help.

We talking pictures in general or if you own a mud truck?

Well there is another thread i made awhile back ya know lol.

Love this theme, easy on the eyes. BIG new sticker next to new threads catches your eye right away.

I have never heard of a price for them. Someone would need to do some research to figure it out.

Well mine is Pretty basic, I still have issues finding a job, no joke I put a app in call and call, get the we are not hiring. Friend does the same and gets the job....I must be doing something wrong. But this is my very short and boring schedule except when i am in class.

Basic Weekday

You would repost that here matt. And I guess i would be the one to rewatch it lol. Its like a train wreck. You just have to watch it happen.

Yea whole working truck.

raminator and rammunition also run standards. they have lenco 3 speeds. except they only have to use a clutch  to take off. they can shift gears without a clutch. XDP also uses this transmission

Heard that the ram team went back to 2 speeds. Not sure if true though.

The Squeaking you hear from the truck landing, Generally I believe can be the shocks, and or the sways bars. Other than that it could be the metal stressing but not breaking.

Also not all trucks are 2 speed 

Samson has a 4 speed.

But you really don't need anymore gearing in the transmission. They do switch out the gears in the transfer case to get more on the top end or bottom end.

And as for a manual, XDP is the only one I know of. Also most automatic trans in a monster have a manual valve body, meaning you still have to shift from 1st to 2nd, and when needed reverse.

If i am not mistaken

The J and B Chassis is roughly $8,000 to $12,000 (asked them with a message)

PEI's are roughly $17,000 (Posted on Mayhem from Dan)

I think Crd's are about the same as a PEI

I think full turn key PEI is 150k Basic 540 merlin. More if you start adding different motor combos on your own.

On another note, don't be afriad to ask, we can all learn here. Instead of people being in the dark on stuff.

Hmm so I guess Zombie does use Thriller as well. In Pittsburgh his theme was this.

Well it was a fun event, ror hated me last night but at least freestyle went decent. Hopefully next time it goes smoother. And Congrats to the winners.

Must commend the generosity Auz. 

.... Are you trying to tell us something....jk

Well those that know me, I like to share projects and other things that I end up either surprising myself with, or just plain love doing. So last year in April I went to school for Automotive and Chassis Fab. Auto was ok made it through without to much trouble. Chassis Fab has been plain awesome, learned a lot more about welding than I knew and learned tig welding something I have wanted to learn for quite sometime. Also learned how easy it is to notch tubing without having a notcher to use. And how to take measurements to make a full chassis to fit a certain tire in the rear, and what ever else is needed. Also learned how to get bend points for a roll bar.

So you can say I am quite proud of myself. And just to share these.

5 Point Thin Wall. Tig welded. All measurement had to be within a 16th of a inch. if you where off to much you got the awesomeness of redoing.

This is where things get more precise. This is the mock frame rail. Everything gets made from scratch. Needs to be 4" long, and 1 1/2" wide if it is not the 1 1/2" you get to redo it. Not finished with this as it needs to have a hole drill in a certain location in which you can only be a 16th off, and need to have a sleeve tig welded in place. Then you get to cut it in half. Mig weld with a backing on one side, and tig weld without backing on the other. Plus you have to finish your welds as i have started to do here.
