    Big Wolves??????

    My first year of hunting (which was a while further back than I care to admit), I harvested two wolves in Northern Ontario - both males, one weighting 105lbs and the other 89lbs. Both were considered absolutely massive by any and every trapper that I had spoken to (most of whom have been...

    New tires! I need help!

    I'm in Timmins Ontario - we get far more snow here than you'll ever get!!! As an avid hunter, I spend a pile of time off road (gravel, logging trails, clay, and sand). I commute 70KM to and from work (highway driving) daily. I bought a set of the Hankook Dynapro AT/M in a 265/75/16. They...

    $83.19 to fill trac today

    $83.19?.... I'm jealous. Timmins, Ontario $1.389 per liter - Cost me $105.56 to fill up yesterday. I'm hoping that the gas/oil companies (as well as the different levels of government that apply fuel taxes) start using lube soon, or at least start buying me dinner.

    Bullied kid fights back and gets suspended

    I've had a little experience from both ends of this scale: Elementary school - From grade 3 through grade 7 I was bullied daily... I was both the little kid and the poor kid. I never fought back, nor did I dare tattle-tale out of fear. Grade 7 - I moved out west to my fathers place. I...

    Thanks Todd Z

    I somehow shattered one of my factory fog lights on my Gen 1 Trac (I'm guessing it was likely while driving down a forest access road behind a guy with a boat trailer)... Todd recently listed some items for sale - I purchased some used fog lights from him... I had to closely inspect them to...

    Repost: Some Random stuff for sale.....

    Since Joel isn't taking your fog lights, I'd like to buy them off of you. I'll send you a P.M. Thanks

    Driving with the folding tonneau cover folded

    I drive with the tonneau cover folded quite regularily (ie. every time I have to make a trip to the dump) - I simply strap the folded section of the tonneau cover down. I use the cam buckle straps available at most automotive places, hooking the strap to the tie downs on the sides of the box...

    265/75/16

    Johnny, I can't give you a definitive answer, since tires vary by manufacturer and trucks vary by construction, but... I just mounted a set of 265/75R16 Hankook Dynapro AT/M on my 2005, and I rub all the way around - just a touch in each back corner, and a touch on the base of the...

    kid's first car

    1972 Volkswagon Superbeetle... I almost hate to admit that I owned one, but the girls loved it - though I did fully enjoy watching people punch eachother in the arm everywhere I went...

    Northern Ontario Members

    Gerry, I live in Timmins (and have lived in Sudbury, New Liskeard, and Barrie - as well as having lived in Alberta), so I can give you a first hand account of what it's like living in the north (vs. the false notions of us being snowed in, or inundated with blackflies).... hahaha I'll...

    Question for the TT-Shackle guys

    Thanks for the replies gentlemen.... I'm lucky enough that they're not rubbing the anything metal - but the tap the plastic inner fenders on the front while turning, and they touch the inner fender (plastic again) in the rear. I'm going to do a little trimming while I'm waiting for either a...

    Question for the TT-Shackle guys

    Good day all, I had a little issue over the weekend where I had 2 flat tires - with one spare... So I had to get a nice new set of tires pretty well right away. I ended up going with the Hankook Dynapro ATM in a LT265/75R16. they look great, but unfortunately I do have a small amount of...

    WTB High Series floor console

    I hate to railroad a thread, but if FlexMy04 doesn't want the console there's a good chance that I'll be interested in it - provided it has the associated hardware, and whether or not you'd mind shippig to the great white north. Thanks, Shawn

    what are you paying for insurance?

    The 'socialized medicine' (we simply call it health care) is funded via our tax dollars - and I'm happy to both have it and to pay for it... Insurance on the other hand is mandated by law, then run by a series of private companies - many of whom lobby the hell out of the provincial government...

    what are you paying for insurance?

    You fine Ladies and Gentlemen have made me feel rather envious - we in Ontario have been subjected to some wonderful rate increases under the current provincial government' watch... coupled with the de-listing and/or decreasing of our coverage (upwards of 50% decreases in injury/disability...

    Doorpad Code ????

    The Project section link that ToddZ posted is a great way to get the code, but the method where you lift the defrost vent cover is far easier, faster, and requires absolutely no mechanical skills what-so-ever. You will need a flat screwdriver, and likely need a flashlight. Gently pry...

    Anybody need a set of these?

    If it weren't for the rediculous shipping costs, I would scoop those up in a heartbeat.

    Whats the stupidest thing?

    I was a welder/fitter apprentice back some 12 years ago - I was removing braces from a conveyor that I was welding on. I started by grinding down the tacks, then hitting the braces with a ball peen hammer. A few of the braces required an upwards hit - one of the braces broke free with very, very...

    Ford Flex Rims?

    Thanks you Les - I think I might just go with some aftermarket rims then. I very much like the look of stock Ford rims, but with that much of an offset I'll try to find some custom rims that aren't too gaudy.
