Garbage Dick posted:I'd be willing to take a crack at installing them to be honest, I'm aware of the risks and could and would treat them like they were actively trying to kill me. The rubber was my concern. Listen I am all for absurd hijinx but loving with some rusted rear end split rims in a field somewhere without a safety cage? If you die I want it to be funny not all explodey (I don't want you to die)

Tommychu posted:Yeah it's a matter of thorough cleaning, inspection and making sure everything's seated (also peeling the ring off without putting too much tension on it, a sprung lock ring is bad). It's one of those things where it's really easy to kill yourself but it's also really easy to not kill yourself. Yes but then there is the matter of doing it in a field in the middle of nowhere with possibly inadequate tools. But I digress can we get this go fund me going or what?

You Am I posted:I used to help my dad replace the tyres on his truck which ran split rims. As long as you clean the rust off (usually used a drill with a wire brush attachment) and deflate the tube before removing the tyre, it's all good. Never had any issues. Yes but there are plenty of videos in dedicated split rim handling shops of the mofos exploding I'm just saying this is a random eBay dump truck that is going to be towed to god knows where and blah blah last I will say on it just make this happen I am ready to donate to this cause

14 is going to miss this. We have to get him out there. Have you asked how much the VW is?

Panaflex posted:I know most are freaking out that 14 is missing the bulk of this but I sincerely believe putting it in the big truck and getting all the fiddly bits to play nice for a long haul to Florida is going to require as many creative minds as possible. We're trying to get 14 on a bus or some other form of transport in the other thread since savior Jeep is causing problems. Have you asked about the VW? Willit fit in the back of the truck? We gotta get 14 on this emergency wise even if he got on a greyhound now it's 24 hours

empty baggie posted:It's supposed to snow here in east TN this weekend but I don't believe it. Thanks for the reminder of what snow on the ground looks like. Without photo evidence, for several months I had forgotten that it gets that cold in some places. Close to you reporting it was 78 today but reminded of last winter when we got hit with a ice storm and entire cities without power for 2+ weeks

Seat Safety Switch posted:I sort of envy people who can experience the 14 INCH RIDE from the start. To think about all that one has to devour in one sitting. I think back to it happening real time and my wife picking up my phone and asking me who was the "14" I was texting in the middle of the night. Awkward.

I see that sort of truck posted all the time with 250k on them and no one bats an eye. If it has been maintained well then it's fine. If no one cares for it then you can get plenty of 100k mike vehicles for $3k

I would check the bike with wheels off and bubble wrapped together or whatever he can come up with for first checked item and check a 50 pound bag of supplies for the second ($15). Backpack worn on the front packed tonthe gills is how I did the greyhound before (to keep thieves out of it). drat that ride is gonna be miserable!
