I have a killer idea...

Lets let BRANDO try em on his 1.8 AX machine.... (Cause I won't touch em)

If he breaks...... No probs.

We pick up the pieces, go visit him at the med ward on Friday's.

And we done learnt sumpin....

Tanks for stepping up Brando... You are the man....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NOTE: I think Craig Downs has a set of 10 bolt Pedrinis we can try on a Mack truck..... Just a little JB weld and a hand drill... We B rockin.....

I like this thread... it's making me think outside the box... of chocolates.

two lug - hum - is that safe

the current lug holes appear to be at the thinner lug area on the wheel.

possibly being redrilled to 5 lug, might make then stronger?

thansk guys for al the dialogue and support

Holy shit I look away for 2 minutes and I'm a nominated crash test dummie.

I'd be willing to bet aaron's name on it saying they're safe too.

Hey Clayton, when you're attaching the studs for these 5-luggers on my car, can you use 3M epoxy instead of JB weld?

Thanks,

I'm off to buy a stronger helmet and maybe a wheelchair. bbiab...

Posted by: KaptKaos Nov 12 2007, 04:30 PM

Just think of all of the benefits of 5-lug, 4-lug fuchs. You can....... Well, you could..... Then there is the .... um.. Well, I'm sure if Brando don't like em, BJ will. Especially since Aaron said they're safe for road and AX use, particularly at high speeds with a subby motor. We just need to make sure his tires are cracked and delaminating this time. That will help too.

I'd better get back to work now. Anyone wanna help me fire my new (old) motor?

Posted by: pffft Nov 12 2007, 06:31 PM

Sure

How about

Sorry, but we have to let you go. We had already been thinking hybrid, but
the bottom line wasn't quite there to make it work short term. However, after the
recent New York Times piece, the incredible spike in 914 values has made
the decision a no brainer.

Thanks for the long years, and don't drip any oil on the way out the door.

I'm gonna try attaching some wheels with magnets. These lug nuts are a waste of time. I saw some really strong little magnets at the hardware store, I'll just drill some holes in the back of the wheels and glue them in with 5 min epoxy.
It could work!
