You're not giving up on that one... laughing1

Yeah last I heard Big Al had it and was making a few changes. I wish he would pull the portals out, they will just not last around here

Guys quit hatin on the boxes. Portal tek is working with me on some other stuff so we made an agreement to hang in their for a while.I so far have pounded the **** out of these axles and god knows these were the same boxes that ran the king of hammers with Randy torturing them. Believe me I'll be the first to admit defeat but I haven't given up on these axles yet.
Al took the rig completely apart to powder coat, build a body and also wrap the exterior. Hoping to have it ready forToys for Tots run.......

Cool , look forward to seeing it with some body work on it !! Dont worry about the midget, he has short penis syndrome... if your rig isnt built exactly like his then he will nit pick something one way or another. :flipoff1:

If you would get Oneal's **** out of your mouth then you would realize that I am not hating, just stating the facts. Those axles are not up to that buggy or the abuse they see. I love that buggy.

If any dicks are in any mouths it would be Spidertrax in yours... you say that **** everytime someone builds or post's a build without them. laughing1

( Im not hatin on either axles, I think they are all cool... **** i got wood yesterday helping Dan move the spider's around for Nicole's rig... drool )

I tell you what, I will give you $10 for every thread you can post where I have said that.

P · Nov 26, 2008

Well, you already owe me ten bucks for this post laughing1

Easiest 10 bux I ever made... thanks

Feels pretty good doubling your hourly pay huh? :flipgotcha:

You may be correct, but I suspect you are just being a ****, so look it up, I will make good on my end. I would bet I have said it less than $50 worth.

I will be glad to send $50 your way to prove a point.

For pounding on rocks, as that buggy was built for, unit bearings are only marginally better than the portals. :dunno:

Keep rocking the portals; a little new axle technology would not hurt.

Welderd · Nov 26, 2008

we talkin per post hear Nolen or per thread?
this board or PBB too?
what's the ground rules here - can we all play?

You haven't said exactly that, hardly at all but it's "implied" in most post

While I admit that my personal jury is still out on the unit bearings, testing has proven that quality unit bearings will take all the abuse you can throw at them.

What makes you have your opinion on them being weak?

Hmmm....sounds like a Hi9 to me.

P · Nov 26, 2008

I agree with Nolan ( shocker I know ) that the quality Unit bearings are up to the task on these types of rigs. ( light weight )

I mean damn how many comp rigs rock these things... they work.

BamaTJ · Nov 26, 2008

OOOOOOOhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, OOOOOOHhhhhhhhhhh (Swinging from vines)

Waiting for Joelzan to swoop in and defend Nolen's honor :flipoff1:

I think with the way Steven likes to throttle down it is only a matter of time before they have a bad failure. Al is easier on it though, so it may last with him driving !
