You can take the slack up one of two ways. You can either run a one more tooth on the sprocket or you can get a larger diameter tensioner roller. I ran into this with my last car. The chain was super stretched and then when I put a new one on, it was either way too tight or way too loose. I just went with a larger roller. I'm not running a turbo. Mine is naturally aspirated and runs pretty damn good. Maybe one of these days I'll throw a turbo on, but I'm pretty happy with it now. Here is the tensioner on my car now....

Actually it's home already. I wish I didn't have plans tonight. I was gonna cruise over and check it out.

What kind of frame or car? Are you building yours from scratch? I think I am running a 14 front and a 64 tooth rear. The tensioner is a large nylon adjuster. I can take pics if you need. Just let me know. BTW, my car is a Short Sand Car.

what is? :dance:

Maybe you can win the title of the smiley by doing that. Wait, I think barefoot bob might have you beat on that one. :porn:

....In your Aquasocks blasting Queen from your Saturn?

Damn Bob. It seems you got that motor in and running rather quick. Good luck- I hope everything goes smooth and there aren't any major bugs to work out w/ the new motor. Make sure to take some pics of that thing out there that weekend.

It seems there are ALOT of toyhaulers, buggies, and bikes for sale right now. I know Vegas is hurtin pretty bad right now because of the housing market. The boom is over and is hurting the economy. It's not even just the real estate/ mortgage market either. It seems everything has slowed down. Is California as that bad too? GD.com seems to have tons of toys for sale on their forum as well. I wonder if the dunes will be less crowded because of it.

Same here. That's why I asked. I have never had a problem with mine and my buggy always sits in the garage. Then again- it is pretty damn light too.

Hurt the paddles?????? You're all kidding right?

OK I'll do both :no_no: :mic: richard cheese...........comfort inn dunefreak..................presidential suite at an undisclosed location duniemonkie.............. " "

This was never meant to be an invitation to attack Danielle in any way by anyone. It was all in good fun, but then some people felt the need to take it further for some reason. Obviously you don't like her, Tim. Maybe you should just keep that to yourself next time.

Ash, Mike has been on DDR since December 05. :porn:

Whatever you do- do NOT use a regular C-clamp. That can be very dangerous. :porn: We have one at our shop, but I can not lend it out because it is property of the dealership. Sorry. Have you tried Checker or Auto Zone? Sometimes they have specialty tools for rent. Sorry, I don't know of any other way to get the torsion compressed in a safe way other than using the special tool.

Welcome to DDR. So sorry it has to be on such a sad note. My condolences to you and your family. Rest in Peace, Adam

ok what time is everyone gettin there? (PT's) I'm down. I think I'll be ready about 7:30 or 8.

Danielle, have you left yet or no? If not.... I think you can squeeze in about 50 more posts before you leave! I am now the prez of the a-hole club!!!!!

stop it!

Sweet! That one is like a sped up version of the other one. I might have to make some changes. bwuahahahahaha

WHAT?

Hey some jerk cut holes in your gauges!

Talk about a resurrected thread!

What's up Mike. Yeah I work with Jimmy. He mentioned you were on here. I'd like to come out for a few tonight, but I'll have to see if it's do-able. Not sure if I can swing it tonight.

I have no idea what you are guys are talking about. I can't seem to figure out why that happened. I contacted the forum software company, Invision Power Board, and they are aware of this glitch. Appartently the smiley is automatically renamed to the member with the highest number of useless posts in a day. Not sure whats up with that. I'll have to look into getting that fixed. Sorry.

Some people have some pretty effed up relationships. :Danielle:
