  1. Same price out East?
  2. The jt4 full synthetic is definitely cheaper for you guys. I am a little worried that this will be the last year to get sea and snow as where I bought those 20l from (Canadian Tire) are having an chain wide in store clearance. Almost sounds like they are just looking to get rid of it. And nobody else that I found up here sells it
  3. Canadian Tire
  4. Sounds like for once, Canada had the better pricing. 5 litres for $24.93 cad 1 us gallon for $19.99usd $19.99 usd = $26.34 cad 1 us gallon = 3.785 Litres

    Hopefully 303 British stays relatively cheap lol. Going for my firearms course on Oct. 3rd. Going to try out hunting with friends and will be using a sporterized Lee Enfield. I am pretty stoked.
  6. Found some mystik sea and snow 5L jugs on sale for $24 from $36. So I got a fresh 20L ready to go for season.
  7. I have all 8 shocks out of two sleds sitting in customs in Alaska to get rebuilt and revalved. I had no idea how bad they were on my 08 switchback. It has the Ryde FX remote rezzy rear and even on the stiffest setting, the weight of my hand would push in the shock shaft and it wouldn't extend out on its own. My center shock had the eyelet missing a chunk and it almost let the spring go. I got lucky there. Should be an awesome riding machine once AKIQPILOT is done with them.
  8. Must have been said on a super recent podcast I haven't had a chance to listen to. So far I thought they loved the new place but are working out technical glitches?

  17. I would hope so. Jap trucks suck lol. I am not really a fan of "most" Jap vehicles in the last 15ish years but there are some exceptions. Also, the Japanese really don't have a 3/4 ton/1 ton regular Joe truck. The titan HD is as close as it gets but it is a meh
  18. I wouldn't say destroyed. Gave a good black eye maybe but they are way farther ahead of us, especially in terms of technology, to have been destroyed. I was watching a documentary on WW2 and they were says that when the first bomb dropped, they had no idea as they were being bombed every day and they thought it was just another raid.
  19. I get that but my statement still stands. It is fucking stupid to call an American engine a "monster from Japan".
  20. Silly that they are calling it Godzilla. It didn't even originate from Japan. There is only one true Godzilla and it ain't no Ford.....
  21. It is hard to beat Gran Turismo Sport on PlayStation for "simulation" style game play. But because it is backed by the FIA. And the hold real tournaments and the like, it requires a constant internet connection. If you are using a PC or Xbox one, Forza Motorsport/Forza Horizon ftmfw. I have a PS4 and a PC and I haven't bothered to buy a Gran Turismo in over a decade. In my opinion, Forza is by far the superior game. Gran Turismo may have some very slight "more realistic driving experience" but that does not out weigh what it lacks compared to Forza. In Forza, you can tune pretty much every measurable thing on a vehicle as well as engine swaps, aspiration changes and drivetrain swaps. Gran Turismo won't let you do that other than some aspiration changes but for some reason it will only allow certain cars to be fitted with turbos or a supercharger. Forza also is way better visually especially when in comes to in car views when driving. I don't know anything about Iracing but if I was looking for a racing game that is fantastic both offline by myself or online against friends/random people, it is extremely hard to beat Forza Motorsport.
  22. I figured out what was going on with the Arctic Cat crossfire primary clutch. I was being a fucking idiot...... I went and looked at it this morning and I was going to pull the primary back off. When I went to loosen the secondary to take the belt off, I found that the belt was way down in sheaves. Turns out my dumb ass somehow managed to get the first and very thin deflection shim cocked when installing the bolt and it prevented the sheaves from being able to close. So there was so much slop in the belt that when the primary engaged, the belt was basically already half way up the primary sheaves. So I straightened out the shim, put it behind a thicker one and made sure it was installed properly. Works almost like it was designed to do it. I was so focused on the primary, I didn't notice the small fuck up on the secondary. Lesson learned.
  23. So I got the clutches all back on the crossfire 600. The only thing I changed in the primary is the spring. I used an aftermarket spring but stock rates. It seems to have an extremely harsh engagement. It still engages at 4000 rpm. Any ideas? The weights and rollers move free with no notches or ridges.
  24. This smaller dealership sells the whole brp lineup but I wouldn't say the were a "high volume dealership". It is weird as well because I am out west and with the mountains so close, it can always be a great sledding season if you want to drive a few hours. Off-road is also huge as well.
