What do you guys think of the season so far?

I'm suprised at how Kurt Bush is running and also Bowyer seemes to be on the right track.

On the other side the 48 seems to be not running so well but is still in the lead. Gordon seems to be snake bitten and Hamlins slide.

JJ is no suprise how well he is doing along with Kenseth and Harvick.

JR and Kahne are also doing well, need those HMS engines to hang in there a few more laps though.

Ol Kurt Busch is having a daren good season looking at the funding he has and such a small team. The dude can drive a race car.

Gotta believe Kurt knows that his chances are running out. Either he plays the game correctly or he will be gone.

Sure he can run his own team but without sponsors or many of them, he is sunk.

Too bad he did not realize this long before it came to what it did.

He's already driving Childress equipment and getting support from them as his team is a satellite team for RCR, so it's not too much of a surprise that he's been doing OK. Even with the good equipment they are a single-car team so they still have to get the car set up right every week and they seem to be doing that.

If not for some end of the race bad luck they'd be even further up in the points. Good to see that he's settled down a bit and racing to his ability. I really don't care for him but he can wheel a car. He should be a factor at the road course this weekend if the car holds up.

At the end of the season Harvick will be gone, Menard has already re-signed, and I would assume that Childress' grandson will move up into Harvick's team. That leaves Burton as the question mark. I haven't heard where he is in his contract and I don't know if RCR is planning on going to a 4th car or not. All depends on sponsors I suppose whether or not they will make room for Busch. Childress will no doubt make sure there is room for his other grandson who will be coming up in a few years too. I would have to think that Burton will be done by then, if not earlier. He hasn't been doing very good the last few years.

If not for some bad luck, every racer would be higher in the points, that goes for all not just Busch.

I have to wait and see how long a team owner like Childress will put up with Kurt if he starts to be like he use to be. Childress does need a driver that can contend but Kurt??

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
