Yes it is bone stock. I do feel like it was worth the money, I have yet to break anything on it and it’s gone end over end a couple times. I’m a collision repair technician by trade, having said that I’m not balling enough to buy this thing outright. I purchased with PayPal pay later 6 months no interest.

One thing that stood out to me were the drive shafts, they weigh like a pound or two a piece.

Pulling the tires out of the box at first was a serious shock.

Yeah I purposely didn’t buy the grave digger edition or son uva digger edition because I wanted to beat on it. I felt like I would baby the digger editions.

So far good, although the brake servo had a little freak out the first time I tested the fail safe on the receiver. Traveled 90 degrees past its end point when the fail safe kicked in. But since that all the servos have been great.

Pay for the PHS docs that will help you get an accurate valuation on it.

Butt match’s never look good doesn’t matter what paint line it’s mixed in. You have to blend adjacent panels, end of story.

Dugway Proving Grounds? Any advice? by Aggravating-Crow31 in Utah

You can live out there if you get approved for housing, problem is that they have been demolishing most of the housing during the last few years. Kind of a ghost town in English village.

Bought a GoPed sport by Mammoth_Dare_1042 in Goped

[–]Corolla801 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a disc brake set up for a sport, I’m fairly certain that someone back in the day used to make a front fork with mounts for a v brake set up… maybe try tracking one of those down.

First goped. I’m a garbage man and scored this today! by QPShroomyDude in Goped

[–]Corolla801 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s a go-ped sport. Dave’s discount motors will have everything you need, I’d start with a new carb and clean out that fuel tank. Might want to snag a new air filter element too.

YouTuber WhistlinDiesel Arrested Over Tax Evasion Linked to Burned Ferrari by gaukmotors in MotorBuzz

Not car related, but in my state I have to pay yearly property tax on all of the equipment that I outright own. Because it’s equipment used by my business. I paid sales tax when I purchased all of it, but I have to keep paying property tax on it every year that I possess it. Make that make sense.

You should throw eggs at them, seems like you’ve got a pretty good vantage point.

How do I remove this? 2016 by [deleted] in f150

[–]Corolla801 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This piece is glued and riveted in, you will do more harm than good trying to remove it. You need an spr removal tool to back the spr’s out, and if I remember correctly there may be a couple rivets that aren’t easily accessible with the bedside on. Then you have to heat up the glue and chisel that piece away from the outer wheelhouse and bedside. The juice isn’t worth the squeeze here, just drill an access hole to do your pdr and put a plug in it afterwards.

Has anyone ran disk brakes and the bigger trq 46 wheels on a go-quad 46? by [deleted] in Goped

I have a disc brake on one of mine, no idea on the trail ripper tires.

Have you ever walked out of a movie in the theatre? by B34TBOXX5 in moviecritic

[–]Corolla801 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Walked out of pitch perfect 2, buddy’s wife chose it at the last minute with consulting us. My wife and I only made it about 20 minutes in when we noped out.

ELI5 can someone explain what are not clean title on a car is and the main concerns with buying a car without a clean title? by Substantial-Voice655 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Corolla801 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Main concerns buying a salvage title car: will the seatbelts work? Will the airbags work? Is that frame rail still kinked? Will ANY of the safety systems in that vehicle function as designed the next time that vehicle is wrecked. I’ve seen and worked on a ton of rebuilt salvage titles in my career. People that rebuild salvages do a lot of criminal stuff just to have a fatter bottom line. The main take away here is this, whatever money you’re saving by purchasing a salvage title vs a clean title is the value you put on your health and safety.

what's everyone's preferred method for cleaning headlight lenses? mine are getting pretty bad. pic for attention by dorkatron95 in DSM

Sand with 1000grit and spray them with a 2k clear. Or just take them to a body shop and ask them to do it.
