Thanks!! Bad News for Him riding in Quebec. Thanks GutZ

All right we are back and already moving into the Sleds. But I have a Quad in Quebec Question, how old do you have to be to ride\drive? Mini would enjoy it! He has New Brunswick, Maine and Mass Safety Courses. He has Atv'd on an Active Volcano in Europe. * As a caveat, when asked how was it, he was like Europe... Again.... ( Moody Teenager.....) it was OK..... LOL!!!! GutZ

Pass time is coming soon and I try to spread around the $$$, do we know what their club # is, give them some lovin' this fall? GutZ

Not taking a chance! I'm going further! And there are IceBergs!!! Water cant be warm. GutZ

That's it! I'm trying another Continent! I'll report back when I can!!! There has to be sun somewhere!!!!!! GutZ

Me too! couple shirts\sweatshirts\hats\stickers\etc.... What ever is available. Later GutZ

Nope, I heard his wife was away on a 2 week trip and he was doing summer maintenance on the sleds in the living room and made a mess on the hardwood floors. Then mistakenly used his wife's favorite towels ( you know the ones.... ) to wipe it up. He felt he had a week to "make it right" At that time his wife called from the airport to say she was home early..... He panicked... LOL! GutZ

I believe the the bearing failed and spun in the dog bone. Essentially clearancing by thousandths of an inch, I hope the Green Locktite holds up and I will revisit it later. Later GutZ

Hey This appears to be a new update on FireFox, it allows you to turn OFF security upgrade to secure connection, for a site. http://quebecrider.com/forums/uploads/monthly_2025_04/image.png.d7e61350235f14619d2f0d0dfbfe2c0b.png Turn it off and it will default to http instead of https, allowing reactions, posts, etc... Give it a try and reply with findings. GutZ

Quick update on the Bearings, ALL were dry, 3 had seals fall off, these were all NTN\Japanese bearings.... FYI on the small wheels, the bearings are the odd 1/2 metric\ 1/2 SAE type. 6202 - 5/8ths. The standard 6202 , I believe, has a 15mm ID. I'll find the link on the Jungle site. Also I am working with Val to create greaseable shock bushings. Later GutZ

Dealing with the IT world... it has really shown that the Warranty is to Protect the Manufacturer NOT the Consumer from defects and workmanship. In most cases the Manufacturer sell the liability off to a 3rd party, essentially an insurance company, and they "Manage the Risk". So think Health Insurance, Deny-Defend-Depose...... sooner or later most of us will be " Screw it I'll do it myself". Sled Stuff, not medical, although.... I could replace a hip or knee.... just not on myself.... I dont think I could get the angles right to twist that far, and then drive the implant into the bone..... But I digress... Warranty protect the Manufacturer NOT the Consumer, but the consumer pay for it. Later GutZ

FYI Since finding those bearings.... less than optimal..... I reviewed all the bearings, Driveline, wheels, upper lower etc.... 90% notchey and dry..... especially behind the brake rotor. To be continued.... GutZ
