Installed the 62mm Karman pulley and the Needswing PSK3. All ready for the Dyno Tune on Saturday.

 

Forum member JHM2K had these on his Alabaster, then put them on his replacement SRT6. Decided he wanted a lighter wheel for racing, and like you, these did catch my eye for a different look. Mandrus is the manufacturer - they are made to fit with no adapters or spacers- which was a big plus in my books.

Oklahoma sun Sparkie.. it's required if you want it to last..

 

Nice slashers, how do you like those wide tires?

 

Eco friendly.. and saves on the actual tread wear!


See why I couldn't even dream of a black car! LOL.

I did say washing the wheels off was next...

Had Maintenance day and Swapped out brake and steering damper install with Jack and Inge for a wax job.........Looks like I made out like a bandit!

 

Took her to the dealer yesterday to get my "new" tire sensors programmed in. Short version.. sensors are transmitting.. Car cannot register them.. Basically.. sensors talking Japanese and Car understands German.. At least the sensors were freebies.. "test these for us".

Will update in a new thread should something get resolved and worth the forums attention.

BUTTTT... while waiting on the Crossfire.. was looking around the lot.. and decided she really doesn't need to be playing in the snow.. (I was paranoid about other people last year).. So we got her a pinch hitter for those days...

4 wheel drive living in the country just sounded like a good idea..

Trailer 2 Crossfires to the Dragon this spring?

 

NICE !
I think no problem on trailering ONE Crossfire, but TWO ?
Thats over 6400 pounds, not counting the trailer.
Is the Avalanche up for that ?

 

10,000 Lbs towing capacity.. Was a fleeting thought.. How often would you really need that trailer though to justify buying it .. LOL. But it would be nice taking both cars to events and not watching the miles wrack up on them.. I really want to go on the "OH SH*T" dragon runs... but really want to stay married too.. LOL.

 

I did something real easy !!!! Charged the battery !!!!! LOL

 

Working on a new Air box design for the CAI.

Passenger side has the radiator tank in the way.
Driver's side has the AC plumbing in the way.

 

You would need a 28 foot trailer to haul two Crossies.

Bumper hitch at 28 feet?? Kinda rare but a custom guy could do it.

Twin axle 5,500 lbs each, wood deck,,,,traiiler would weigh about 3,500 lbs leaving just enough capacity for the two Croessies.

I would keep in mind that is a Chevy with which your are pulling it .

 

Thanks for the heads up! Basically your saying "Easy on the throttle.. lest you should pull the trailer right out from under the crossfires"..

 

Finally had the time to install the new door sills and wind restrictor

 

No. I was suggesting you might want to avoid the mountains.

And I definetly would not pull that rig thru the Dragon.

 

I am going to work my way into a 2 car trailer, but going to move up to diesel dually. Right now I tow the blue 1 in a 24' enclosed trailer with a Tahoe. It's all the Tahoe wants.

 

Yeah in all honesty I figure that job would take a dually with some grunt.. LOL.

 

And would you ever even consider pulling the 1 car through US-129, much less a 2 car? LMAO

There would definitely be youtube video, just not the good kind...

 

I have a '95 Dodge Dually withthe Cimmins Diesel. It would be working some to haul that load. I pull a 24 footer loaded with block or steel,or cars. I once grosssed the scales coming out of Atlanta to St Louis at 24,700 lbs.

Might have to drop a gear in the mountains once in a while.

 

Sadly, changed the oil and put her away for the winter...

But...drove her hard yesterday!

Happy reading on the forum this winter for me.....

And detailing.......
