its its 1 Animal (Music)

[00:00:40:22 – 00:00:58:20]
Well, good evening boys and girls. This is Tony Mutteroy on XJTalk.com. This is the talk show from XJTalk.com. And we’re here to talk about Jeeps and well, pretty much anything that we want to because damn it, that’s what we can do.

[00:00:59:20 – 00:01:07:08]
Let’s see, we’ve got about 10 people in the room right now in the chat room. Make that 11.

[00:01:08:08 – 00:01:48:02]
So we’re getting better viewership each time. As you may know, this is also put out on a podcast. So we record the show and then send it out on the interweb and people can download it or listen to it from XJTalk.com. And actually, that site is www.xjtalk.com slash podcasts with a plural, a little s on the end, dot php. If you just go to xjtalk.com, you can find it. We have a chat room and you can ask or post and somebody will direct you to it.

[00:01:49:26 – 00:02:10:12]
Thank you everybody. Thank you for making it here tonight. And what we have tonight is live phone calls. We’re going to take live phone calls, much like what we did on New Year’s Eve. I had a little impompitude show on New Year’s Eve where I took live phone calls and it was a lot of fun.

[00:02:12:06 – 00:02:16:03]
The show was like three and a half hours and boy, the time went by really fast.

[00:02:18:01 – 00:02:44:00]
So I’ll tell you about that real quick. If you call in, I only have the one line, the one landline and the skype line. So if the landline is busy, you may find yourself over on the voicemail to leave a message. And you can leave a message if you like and may play that on a future show or

[00:02:44:00 – 00:02:44:08]
just,

[00:02:44:08 – 00:02:50:25]
I mean, if you want to, you can try calling back in and getting on the air.

[00:02:51:26 – 00:02:54:17]
So first off, let me,

[00:02:54:17 – 00:02:58:09]
before we get started on anything, let me

[00:02:58:09 – 00:02:59:25]
you about our sponsor.

[00:02:59:25 – 00:03:21:29]
This segment is brought to you by Ironman 4×4, the toughest, most adjustable control arms in the industry. Ironman 4×4 has a wide variety of rugged off-road suspension products that are overbuilt and underpriced. Visit Ironman4x4fab.com today. That’s Ironman4x4fab.com.

[00:03:21:29 – 00:03:26:12]
Xjtalk.com. It’s where you go when you’re not off-road.

[00:03:26:12 – 00:03:42:05]
Do you have questions or comments that you would like played on the air? We’ve set up voicemail just for that purpose. All you have to do is call 530-675-4102. Just leave your name, your location and

[00:03:42:05 – 00:03:45:16]
your question or comment. Chances are good it’ll get played on the air.

[00:03:45:16 – 00:03:55:20]
That number again is 530-675-4102. We look forward to hearing from you today.

[00:03:55:20 – 00:03:56:19]
Well, maybe not today.

[00:03:56:19 – 00:04:03:23]
We look forward to hearing a live phone call from you, but we have the voicemail set up 24×7. So if you’d like to

[00:04:03:23 – 00:04:24:01]
in, make a witty comment or a question you’d like answered here on the show by myself or one of the people in the chat room, we’d love to have you call in and leave a message. Probably we’ll play that during the show. Not this one, but a future show.

[00:04:24:18 – 00:04:29:08]
And then get your answer on the air. Hopefully it’ll be a good answer.

[00:04:29:08 – 00:04:46:16]
try to provide those, don’t we guys? Let’s see who we have in here tonight. I see Trapdog is in there. Great. Thank you for coming Trapdog. Trapdog is not a Jeep person. He’s just a very good friend of mine. And he writes songs and writes damn good

[00:04:47:25 – 00:05:06:03]
I see Tobii97, Big Jim 350, Dalton 4×4. Dalton’s been here for about an hour already. Thank you very much, Dalton. You’re a very welcomed addition to the show because I can always count on you being there. And if for some reason you can’t be, don’t feel bad about it. I understand.

[00:05:06:03 – 00:05:12:00]
No cuss words on Jim. Is this a New Year’s resolution you’ve turned

[00:05:12:00 – 00:05:15:03]
I

[00:05:15:03 – 00:05:21:21]
see Cantab27, which is Wayne from New Zealand. Thank you for joining us, Wayne. I believe Wayne’s probably going to be giving us a call

[00:05:21:21 – 00:05:25:17]
And PEIXJ

[00:05:25:17 – 00:05:25:14]
is

[00:05:25:14 – 00:05:29:13]
So let’s see. I think I get everybody.

[00:05:29:13 – 00:05:31:21]
Mugby, thank you for joining Mugby.

[00:05:31:21 – 00:05:42:29]
And we have somebody by the name of the Big Dog. Welcome. I don’t know that you’ve been here before. If you’re a previous guest, thank you for signing up and getting in the chat room.

[00:05:42:29 – 00:05:48:13]
And if this is your first show, even a better welcome.

[00:05:48:13 – 00:05:56:03]
And was it, I never can pronounce some of these names on XJTalk. Is it Ruggedon? Ruggedon? Ruggedon?

[00:05:56:03 – 00:06:03:28]
you for joining. I think that’s as many times as, Rugged1, thank you. I was going to say that was as many times as I was going to try saying

[00:06:03:28 – 00:06:16:06]
I guess we need to have some sort of phonetic spelling on the names because some of them I don’t have a clue. I recognize them, but as far as pronouncing them, it’s like reading a novel. I don’t know why authors have to put in

[00:06:16:06 – 00:06:19:29]
names that are so colorful and confusing.

[00:06:21:01 – 00:06:22:28]
It just confuses me. I hate novels.

[00:06:22:28 – 00:06:26:15]
I like the story, but I hate trying to keep up with the characters in it.

[00:06:26:15 – 00:06:33:15]
So like I mentioned earlier, we’re going to do live calls. And before we get started with that,

[00:06:33:15 – 00:06:46:21]
well, let me see. I can’t really think of anything to do other than, oh, let me play this promo. I got to play a Big Jim 350 promo. This is Big Jim 350 and I

[00:06:46:21 – 00:06:50:08]
love XJTalk.com.

[00:06:50:08 – 00:06:52:03]
Jim’s very excited about XJTalk.com.

[00:06:52:15 – 00:06:54:05]
Oh, there’s Reani. Thank you for joining, Reani.

[00:06:54:05 – 00:06:59:25]
Okay, I’m sorry. I got to play it again. I got to play the other one, Jim. I like this other one

[00:06:59:25 – 00:07:03:20]
I just wanted to say XJTalk is the best

[00:07:03:20 – 00:07:04:27]
sight in the

[00:07:04:27 – 00:07:07:18]
world. And if you think you know a better

[00:07:07:18 – 00:07:08:09]
sight,

[00:07:08:09 – 00:07:11:22]
you. By the way, this is Big Jim 350.

[00:07:13:27 – 00:07:15:00]
Bye. Oh,

[00:07:15:00 – 00:07:36:18]
that’s great. I love that. Now see, that is an excellent example of a great use of our voicemail line, which is on your screen, 530-675-4102. When the show’s over, it’ll be back to regular voicemail. Right now, it’s set up for live calls.

[00:07:36:18 – 00:07:41:05]
So after the show, call in and see if you can beat Big

[00:07:41:05 – 00:07:45:03]
voicemail. Those were two damn good voicemails.

[00:07:45:03 – 00:07:46:07]
Excellent promo.

[00:07:46:07 – 00:07:47:17]
I like this one too.

[00:07:47:17 – 00:07:56:18]
just wanted to tell you about XJTalk.com. It’s a great sight. This is what I would consider a kinder, gentler promo.

[00:07:56:18 – 00:08:04:16]
I just wanted to tell you about XJTalk.com. It’s a great sight. There’s no bashing. Everybody’s nice and friendly. Great place to be.

[00:08:04:16 – 00:08:13:11]
is Brian XJ. Just calling in to tell you that we really like the website. Full of a lot of tech and a lot of good people. Always get a response back quickly. Thanks. Have a

[00:08:13:11 – 00:08:30:18]
Okay. Well, I think that we’ve covered pretty much everything I can think of. The show is XJTalk.com talk show. It’s here as part of XJTalk.com. On

[00:08:30:18 – 00:08:39:10]
site, the XJ is a Jeep Cherokee. The XJ is a two-letter designator that Jeep gave the Cherokee.

[00:08:40:04 – 00:08:52:19]
Many of us have the XJs. Many of us have the XJs that are four-wheel drive and we take them off-road. We talk about that, amongst other things, on XJTalk.com. So whether you’re a Jeep owner,

[00:08:52:19 – 00:08:57:18]
any Jeep, or a four-wheel drive owner, any four-wheel

[00:08:57:18 – 00:09:03:25]
it doesn’t matter. Everybody’s welcome on XJTalk.com.

[00:09:03:25 – 00:09:05:15]
may not find as

[00:09:05:15 – 00:09:10:04]
many things that interest you if you don’t have a Jeep, but you’re still welcome.

[00:09:11:07 – 00:09:20:24]
certainly not going to run anybody off because you’re not our idea of who you are, who you should be, or who you are, or what you drive.

[00:09:20:24 – 00:09:23:04]
Everybody’s welcome.

[00:09:23:04 – 00:09:25:12]
Chevy’s are welcome. I had a Chevy, Toby.

[00:09:25:12 – 00:09:30:12]
I had a 1983 Chevy short-wheel base,

[00:09:30:12 – 00:09:40:05]
four-wheel drive, and it was a lot of fun. My Jeep was ten times better, the power, the ability to go anywhere, but that still was a fun truck.

[00:09:42:15 – 00:09:46:17]
Well, you had a love truck? I remember those.

[00:09:46:17 – 00:09:59:25]
they really were. They were crap. That Chevy, the transmission went out, but it was under factory warranty, dealer warranty, and they repaired it. They had it for 30 days repairing the damn thing,

[00:09:59:25 – 00:10:04:03]
but it still was a beautiful truck, and most of the time it was fine.

[00:10:06:20 – 00:10:20:21]
Mine wasn’t a hundred. Mine was $10,000. That was the first new vehicle that I ever bought. It was a little over $10,000. Got it new and was very happy with it. Had a lot of compliments

[00:10:20:21 – 00:10:23:17]
almost as many as I get on my Jeep.

[00:10:23:17 – 00:10:42:24]
Okay. So, you know, guys, it’s time. I don’t have anybody ringing my phone, but we’re going to assume somebody will. Somebody’s calling. Somebody entered the damn phone. It’s an XJTalk Live phone call. Okay, guys, like I said, we’re doing live phone calls tonight, so

[00:10:42:24 – 00:10:49:14]
ring a ding-ding. The number is on the screen. Hey, that kind of rhymes, doesn’t it?

[00:10:49:14 – 00:10:50:21]
let’s see who we

[00:10:50:21 – 00:10:52:05]
Press the button.

[00:10:53:06 – 00:10:54:03]
Hey, how’s it going?

[00:10:54:03 – 00:10:55:20]
Pretty good. Who we got?

[00:10:56:21 – 00:11:09:12]
Dalton 4×4. I thought so, Dalton. I kind of heard a bit of a twang in there. First off, there’s one thing I can’t check. I can’t check how loud I am on the phone. I can just turn it down enough so I don’t hear it coming back into the mixer. Are you able to hear me

[00:11:09:12 – 00:11:11:23]
Yeah, it sounded good. Good.

[00:11:13:04 – 00:11:12:28]
up?

[00:11:14:04 – 00:11:16:08]
Nothing much. Just calling

[00:11:16:08 – 00:11:23:13]
I’ve seen everybody, seen that bumper that I designed. Terrell helped me with the 3D imaging. Oh, that was great,

[00:11:23:13 – 00:11:28:28]
Uh-huh. I also have a question.

[00:11:28:28 – 00:11:31:05]
I see Renny and all and Jim and all’s in there.

[00:11:33:09 – 00:11:39:06]
I’m not wanting to go with the big time lift. I’m wanting to go with the junkyard build lift.

[00:11:41:00 – 00:11:41:11]
Would

[00:11:41:11 – 00:11:47:13]
newer coil springs, I’ve seen if you can get for 70ish

[00:11:47:13 – 00:11:51:07]
F-150s or Blazers, Broncos for the coil springs.

[00:11:51:07 – 00:11:56:20]
And I’ve also read that even the newer F-150 coil springs will work. Are they better

[00:11:56:20 – 00:11:58:17]
than the 70 model

[00:11:58:17 – 00:12:05:06]
So, I’m sorry, it was the Ford F-150 coil springs and you want to know what year?

[00:12:05:06 – 00:12:10:25]
I’ve seen where we can put them in the XJ’s from the 70 models, the 70s

[00:12:10:25 – 00:12:18:07]
And I’ve also seen here recently where you can put, if somebody had somewhere that you could put newer ones in there as well.

[00:12:20:14 – 00:12:29:06]
I’m seeing in the chat room, stiff, that they ride really rough. I guess that’s because they’re for a much heavier vehicle than the Cherokee.

[00:12:29:06 – 00:12:32:23]
What would be the better junkyard coils then?

[00:12:32:23 – 00:12:37:00]
Guys, is there a junkyard coil that would be good for the,

[00:12:37:00 – 00:12:45:07]
okay, Toby’s saying a Grand Cherokee. What kind of lift do you get out of a Grand Cherokee spring? It seems like it was 3 inches to me though, it seems like it was less than that.

[00:12:45:07 – 00:12:52:13]
I’m wanting to go with 4.5. Yeah, Toby says an inch and a half to 2 inches on the Grand Cherokee

[00:12:53:24 – 00:13:05:24]
And then the big dog says then a spacer. Well, that makes sense because you could put a 2 inch spacer on that. If you were getting 2 inches, a 2 inch lift out of the coil, then put a spacer on there, that wouldn’t be bad. A 2 inch spacer isn’t bad.

[00:13:05:24 – 00:13:07:13]
you feel about spacers?

[00:13:08:04 – 00:13:16:15]
Well, this is my first XJ and doing the lift and all on it. So I’m still, like I say, I’m still a newbie to all of this.

[00:13:16:15 – 00:13:31:16]
Well, when I was asking, because I have a 4.5 inch lift on mine, and I was thinking about going to 6.5 down the road after I got my slip yoke eliminator kit put in on the transfer

[00:13:32:17 – 00:13:47:29]
And I had asked people would it be better for me to get some 6.5 inch Rough Country springs or spacer, to put a 2 inch spacer. And I heard, I was really surprised that I heard from pretty much everybody that the 2 inch spacer

[00:13:47:29 – 00:13:52:13]
and the 6.5 inch spring would make no difference. It would be virtually the

[00:13:53:24 – 00:14:05:14]
I had pretty much decided I was going to go ahead and go with the 6.5 inch RC spring, but I was curious if that was an alternative because you know the spacers are like 30 bucks. It’s just being some heavy plastic.

[00:14:06:21 – 00:14:43:23]
So if you were, because I think today I was mentioning in chat, you were mentioning something about a $100 lift. And I thought that you could probably get at least a 2 or 3 inch lift for $100. I mean, you’d have to scrounge around, but I think, and you guys correct me if I’m wrong, 3 inches doesn’t require a transfer case drop, in most cases anyway. It doesn’t require a transfer case drop. And the geometry of the front end track bar, etc., doesn’t change enough to where you would have to worry about making any

[00:14:43:23 – 00:14:45:25]
or adjustment to keep it in the line.

[00:14:45:25 – 00:14:49:02]
Greeny says nope and yep, I’m confused.

[00:14:49:02 – 00:14:52:19]
Maybe he’s talking to somebody in the chat room. Yeah, he

[00:14:52:19 – 00:14:54:09]
I think he’s talking to me.

[00:14:56:09 – 00:14:59:13]
said he had 3 inch springs. Okay, Toby says I didn’t drop anything.

[00:15:00:20 – 00:15:02:11]
I put my 3 inch on.

[00:15:02:11 – 00:15:11:16]
And no pinion shims or anything. Yeah, that’s what I’m thinking, is you can get away with 3 inches without having to really do anything. Did you do anything with the brake cables, Toby?

[00:15:12:28 – 00:15:14:03]
was going to say, I don’t think you have to do brake cables

[00:15:14:03 – 00:15:26:01]
He says no vibration whatsoever. What about the brake lines? Did you have to extend those? Stock cables. Yeah, but I mean, did you make some brackets or move them down at all?

[00:15:26:01 – 00:15:33:05]
the 4.5 inch rough country lift, all it had was brackets that let you relocate where they attach to the

[00:15:33:05 – 00:15:44:28]
He said he didn’t relocate them either. Nope. Well, there you go. See, I think you could get, because what leaf springs are good for the XJ guys? Is it the Dakota?

[00:15:44:28 – 00:16:03:01]
Dakota’s, S10’s, S10’s, maybe about 4.5. Okay, well you already know then. So I would, I mean, I haven’t been to a junkyard pricing those things, but I bet you if you scrounged around, you could get some leaf springs pretty cheap. And then go with 3 inch spacers on the front.

[00:16:03:01 – 00:16:17:14]
See, I bet you could do $100 lift. I bet you could really easy. It might take a little effort. Yeah, I’ve got a book now where stuff that I’ve printed off for what people said on site and different sites. It’s probably 2 inches thick of all different kinds of XJ info.

[00:16:17:14 – 00:16:42:03]
So when I get finally ready to do the lift, I’m set. Yeah, well, like I said, I think you can do it really cheap. Actually, it might be interesting to put a thread up on xjtalk.com and just ask, what’s the cheapest lift you’ve ever done and how successful were you in it? I mean, because I guess anybody can come up with a cheap lift, but if you have to wind up replacing it in 6 months, then that might be a

[00:16:42:03 – 00:16:43:13]
Okay.

[00:16:44:20 – 00:16:54:26]
here’s a good question for you, because I think you talked about this. Someone’s to make spacers out of and what was the best thing to make them from. What was it you had, the hockey pucks? I ordered

[00:16:54:26 – 00:17:39:08]
a dozen, I think it was, a dozen hockey pucks. Actually, I got the hockey pucks and I had to order them because I’m here in Texas, South Texas, and hockey pucks is something those damn Canadians do about 1,000 miles north of us. So I actually had to order them from Sports Authority, I think. I got them online for like $25 shipped. I was getting them for bump stops. I was going to glue them at the bottom of the coil so that, you know, whenever the upper bump stop came down, it would impact the top of the hockey puck. And I actually had two hockey pucks in there. After I’d gotten the hockey pucks, I found out about the Daystar bump stops that are about

[00:17:39:08 – 00:17:41:17]
almost three times longer than the factory bump

[00:17:41:17 – 00:17:56:09]
So I kind of got in that mode of getting it installed and not really looking at it. A lot of it had to do with fighting with that spring, trying to get the coil spring out of there without taking a lot of stuff off. I’ll spend two hours

[00:17:56:09 – 00:18:00:29]
to make something happen without actually,

[00:18:00:29 – 00:18:31:08]
I just got a message here from Wayne. I’ll spend two extra hours trying to make something work instead of just taking something apart that might take me an extra 30 minutes. But anyway, I finally got it in there and then once I started collapsing things, I had about two inches of space between the bottom of that Daystar bump stop and the top of the second hockey puck. So I finally wound up just taking the hockey pucks out of there, which was simple because they were just glued in. And I think Renee actually got a couple of them.

[00:18:33:02 – 00:18:42:20]
So the hockey pucks were a great idea, but I just didn’t need both of those things. But I would imagine that you could make the

[00:18:42:20 – 00:18:59:27]
here what Wayne sent me. I imagine you could do what you’re needing to do, make a spacer out of the hockey puck. Well, come to think of it, it may not work. You’d have to drill a hell of a hole in that so the bump stop would fit through it. And it may not be wide enough.

[00:18:59:27 – 00:19:07:05]
think the bump stops, I mean the spacers that you get are a lot wider. Plus I think they have a groove for the top of the spring.

[00:19:07:29 – 00:19:11:16]
Yeah, I’ve got a list where you can get them out of

[00:19:11:16 – 00:19:16:06]
Camaros and stuff like that, the spacers out of them. Oh, that’s interesting. I did not know

[00:19:16:06 – 00:19:20:04]
So you could actually have a junkyard bonanza.

[00:19:20:04 – 00:19:26:12]
I’ve got like three different pages of everything from suspension to body

[00:19:26:12 – 00:19:32:01]
And sorry, what was this? You mentioned it a few minutes ago, but I didn’t hear what it was.

[00:19:32:01 – 00:19:40:06]
got like three pages of nothing but junkyard parts from suspension, steering,

[00:19:40:06 – 00:19:43:12]
body armor,

[00:19:43:12 – 00:19:44:07]
modifications,

[00:19:45:03 – 00:19:50:23]
Okay, I might show my ignorance, but have you posted any of that up on the site? Because that sounds like some great information.

[00:19:50:23 – 00:19:53:26]
Matter of fact, I think it was on

[00:19:53:26 – 00:19:59:28]
an earlier post from somebody when the site first came up. Gotcha.

[00:19:59:28 – 00:20:04:23]
need to find that and make it a sticky or something. That sounds like some great information for people that want

[00:20:04:23 – 00:20:11:18]
do an XJ on the cheap, do an off-road modification for the XJ on the cheap.

[00:20:11:18 – 00:20:18:22]
think it was, I can’t remember, I want to say it was an old, what was the guy’s name? He’s been banned since

[00:20:19:26 – 00:20:23:16]
Baltimore. Baltimore? Yeah. Yeah.

[00:20:23:16 – 00:20:29:26]
It may have been him. Guys, what was his name? I have forgotten. Big Bad XJ, that’s what it

[00:20:32:27 – 00:20:34:26]
Because he had a lot of info on there. He

[00:20:34:26 – 00:20:38:03]
very knowledgeable. I tried to give him as many chances as I

[00:20:38:03 – 00:20:41:13]
because he was so knowledgeable.

[00:20:42:21 – 00:20:52:03]
I have one very strict rule on the site, and that’s that we do not belittle or intimidate people on the site.

[00:20:53:03 – 00:21:02:07]
I gave him, he had done that a few times. The final time, I just pretty much made up my mind that

[00:21:02:07 – 00:21:12:19]
he was just too much trouble. He needed to apologize very quickly, and he wanted to argue about it instead of just apologizing to the person that he had insulted.

[00:21:14:16 – 00:21:16:11]
So he was banned, and he’s been banned.

[00:21:16:11 – 00:21:20:01]
I’ve been on here for not even quite a year yet,

[00:21:20:01 – 00:21:51:12]
I’ve never seen the point to get out of line with anybody on the site everybody’s easy to get along with. Oh, it’s great. I think that if you have an atmosphere where everybody’s nice and helpful to everybody else, people are smart. They get it. I think most people want to get along, but if somebody starts poking you with a long stick, you have a tendency to take it away from them. Yeah. Beat them over the head with it. Yeah, I’m pretty sure somebody new comes in there, and they see our chat every now and then. They wonder what’s going on.

[00:21:52:23 – 00:21:56:28]
Yeah, well, we do give each other a hard time, but we are a bunch of men.

[00:21:56:28 – 00:22:06:13]
may have the mental outlook of a junior high student, but we’re still men, and we have to mess with everybody.

[00:22:06:13 – 00:22:10:03]
That’s all I wanted to know. Okay.

[00:22:10:03 – 00:22:13:20]
was just reading here in the chat room. The Golden Rule, man. That’s right,

[00:22:13:20 – 00:22:15:05]
All right.

[00:22:16:14 – 00:22:21:04]
Well, you’re welcome to hang here a little bit, or if you want to get off, that’s fine

[00:22:21:27 – 00:22:29:20]
I’ll hang around. I’m usually here for the old show. Cool. Well, let me see. I think Wayne said something about, let’s see, what did you tell me, Wayne?

[00:22:30:26 – 00:22:35:18]
Something about when I was ready. You can give me a call. I can take the call on Skype. I’ve got,

[00:22:35:18 – 00:22:40:22]
take two calls at once. Actually, on Skype, I’m thinking I might be able to do a conference

[00:22:40:22 – 00:22:51:23]
So we might even try multiple Skype callers. Yeah, technology. And the cool thing, Toby, is it’s free technology.

[00:22:51:23 – 00:22:53:10]
the, there we go. That’s always

[00:22:53:10 – 00:22:56:28]
Here’s the camera. Free technology.

[00:22:56:28 – 00:23:00:05]
Jim, this isn’t that kind of chat

[00:23:03:03 – 00:23:05:05]
Yeah, my computer shut down on me. I’m trying to get it back up.

[00:23:07:03 – 00:23:11:28]
Jim says I want to get off, and I’m, you know, don’t want to go there. There I am.

[00:23:11:28 – 00:23:14:25]
Wow.

[00:23:16:02 – 00:23:29:05]
Yeah, if you guys are wondering about the family friendly thing on XJTalk, we are family friendly, but the way I look at it is everybody should be 18 or more older that’s driving.

[00:23:29:05 – 00:23:32:12]
And I don’t want

[00:23:32:12 – 00:23:46:05]
people to feel like they are not able to show a pretty girl or talk about something that might be of an adult nature. And that’s why we have the “Are you 18 years or older?” little check box.

[00:23:46:05 – 00:24:07:22]
not because we show nudie pictures or, you know, dogs rolling around the ground showing their privates. It’s a family friendly, yet adult, website. And I think everybody, everybody adheres to that really well. You know, there’s some scantily clad women, but we have the no nib

[00:24:07:22 – 00:24:09:28]
Yeah, but still no nipples.

[00:24:09:28 – 00:24:15:02]
Pretty girls, but they have no nipples. It’s kind of a weird thing.

[00:24:15:02 – 00:24:17:03]
all Russians from Chernobyl.

[00:24:20:19 – 00:24:22:01]
No, not even behind a see-through

[00:24:22:01 – 00:24:26:12]
And what we do is if you post something like that up,

[00:24:27:15 – 00:24:32:24]
one of us will edit out the offending nip it or nipple.

[00:24:32:24 – 00:24:34:18]
Ah, I must have missed

[00:24:34:18 – 00:24:37:15]
It’s a shame we didn’t have a moderator notice that.

[00:24:37:15 – 00:24:42:04]
I

[00:24:42:04 – 00:24:45:21]
got to laugh and what Jim said. Yeah.

[00:24:49:08 – 00:24:58:20]
guys, we’ve got a Skype line open. If somebody would like to give me a holler on Skype, it’s the Skype, I don’t know what you call it, the Skype name is xjtalk.com.

[00:24:58:20 – 00:25:05:24]
That was a URL removed, big dog. Let me turn that on so you can post a link. There you go.

[00:25:05:24 – 00:25:14:08]
Put that link in again because if the links aren’t allowed, it removes them any time somebody sends a link out and

[00:25:14:08 – 00:25:15:21]
There you go.

[00:25:15:21 – 00:25:19:25]
YouTube video. Actually, I think I can bring that into the show.

[00:25:19:25 – 00:25:21:04]
Let’s see.

[00:25:21:04 – 00:25:23:01]
If I can remember.

[00:25:23:01 – 00:25:24:20]
Add YouTube.

[00:25:24:20 – 00:25:26:17]
I’ll copy that

[00:25:32:21 – 00:25:34:14]
Wayne said he’s got no sound earthquake.

[00:25:34:14 – 00:25:35:16]
having an

[00:25:36:17 – 00:25:40:25]
I think he’s, because he didn’t got any sound, he’s probably got his speakers turned down again.

[00:25:40:25 – 00:25:43:03]
That’s what was wrong last

[00:25:44:10 – 00:25:45:03]
Ah, okay.

[00:25:45:03 – 00:25:46:02]
Hmm.

[00:25:46:02 – 00:25:49:20]
I was trying to get this YouTube video in here. I

[00:25:49:20 – 00:25:52:04]
with this the other day, but not extensively.

[00:25:52:04 – 00:25:57:21]
So how soon do you think you’ll be doing your lift, Alton?

[00:25:57:21 – 00:26:02:11]
there’s a friend of mine

[00:26:02:11 – 00:26:05:19]
supposed to be buying my 94 GMC that I

[00:26:05:19 – 00:26:10:16]
hopefully by the end of this month. And after that, I’ll be able to go to the junkyard to look for the parts. So hopefully, I’ll be able to get the parts. So hopefully, I’ll

[00:26:10:16 – 00:26:13:27]
be able to go to the junkyard to look for the parts. So hopefully, I’ll be able to get the parts. So hopefully, I’ll be able to go to the junkyard to look for the parts. So hopefully,

[00:26:13:27 – 00:26:19:15]
say around February, March, I should be able to get started on it. Oh, that’s not very long away at all.

[00:26:19:15 – 00:26:20:09]
No.

[00:26:23:13 – 00:26:24:28]
And I still have my

[00:26:24:28 – 00:26:31:22]
rack out here that I haven’t finished yet, the plastic pallet that I was working on.

[00:26:31:22 – 00:26:36:08]
I’m, I still have a few, few modifications to do to it before I put it up on

[00:26:36:08 – 00:26:39:25]
Okay, hang on. Let me see if I can get the video up right now.

[00:26:39:25 – 00:26:43:06]
well, I’m going to try this. We’ll see how it, what, how it

[00:26:56:19 – 00:26:56:24]
Hmm.

[00:26:56:24 – 00:27:00:14]
Well, it shows what’s playing, but

[00:27:00:14 – 00:27:02:07]
see anything. Have you guys seen anything on that video?

[00:27:03:01 – 00:27:04:11]
No, I don’t.

[00:27:04:11 – 00:27:06:04]
Well, you

[00:27:06:04 – 00:27:08:04]
it shows that it’s there.

[00:27:08:04 – 00:27:09:15]
But it’s not

[00:27:10:14 – 00:27:10:20]
Hmm.

[00:27:20:23 – 00:27:20:27]
said it worked for

[00:27:20:27 – 00:27:24:01]
Yeah, I’m actually trying to play it on the show.

[00:27:24:01 – 00:27:26:05]
And I have it up.

[00:27:26:05 – 00:27:30:00]
And it may be that I just need to,

[00:27:30:00 – 00:27:35:12]
using all the bandwidth up trying to send this broadcast out. So, you know, maybe that’s the

[00:27:35:12 – 00:27:38:17]
Anyway, it was worth a shot.

[00:27:38:17 – 00:27:38:20]
Um.

[00:27:38:20 – 00:27:45:13]
Okey dokey. Well, as you can see on the scrolling

[00:27:45:13 – 00:27:49:13]
stream there at the top of the Ustream screen,

[00:27:49:13 – 00:27:51:06]
there is the,

[00:27:51:06 – 00:28:02:05]
name for the Skype call. If you have Skype and you’d like to call in, it’s xjtalk.com. I don’t think you actually have to add me to your,

[00:28:02:05 – 00:28:07:14]
add me to your contacts. I think you can just call. I’m not that familiar with making calls on Skype.

[00:28:07:14 – 00:28:10:28]
Just kind of get them. So.

[00:28:10:28 – 00:28:22:18]
I’m just looking here at a message from James. You know, from Facebook he says, I can view and listen to the show, but I can’t type in chat. Darn calm Nazis.

[00:28:22:18 – 00:28:56:25]
James, that’s actually a good point. You have to register with Ustream before you can chat in the chat room. And I probably should, I remember mentioning that on one of the earlier shows. And then, you know, it’s second nature to me because I’m registered. I probably need to remind people of that so they can go over to Ustream and get registered. You can do, you can register now. And the show has still got another, you know, 30 minutes to go. So you can get registered and get in the chat room and yuck it up with the rest of the

[00:28:56:25 – 00:28:59:10]
So

[00:28:59:10 – 00:29:05:24]
everybody that, we do have a few guests if you, any of you that are listening on the podcast later.

[00:29:07:02 – 00:29:36:23]
Not the live show, but the podcast. You know, go over to Ustream and get registered so that you can be active in the chat. And also too, you can, I can’t remember if it’s become a friend of XJTalk or you can basically subscribe to XJTalk on Ustream. And you’ll get notification from the event that I scheduled when there’s going to be a show. And the show is every Wednesday night, 8 p.m. Central.

[00:29:36:23 – 00:29:47:26]
And you know, that could always change depending on my personal commitments, work and so on and so forth. But it should be a pretty easy thing to,

[00:29:47:26 – 00:29:49:15]
easy schedule to

[00:29:49:15 – 00:29:53:12]
But if you need the notification, just

[00:29:53:12 – 00:29:54:02]
go over there and subscribe to the

[00:29:54:02 – 00:30:05:24]
And of course there’s other ways that you can keep up with XJTalk.com. James knows this because he is a friend of XJTalk.com on Facebook, but

[00:30:05:24 – 00:30:25:01]
you guys may not be. Here’s the information to friend us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter. Did you know that XJTalk.com is on Facebook? Let’s go to Facebook.com slash XJTalk and friend us. We’re also on Twitter, Twitter.com slash XJTalk.

[00:30:25:01 – 00:30:33:19]
Okay, so you can keep up with us there and we always have notification of events that are happening

[00:30:34:21 – 00:30:42:11]
on Twitter and Facebook and of course on the website. So if you’re not a member of XJTalk.com, please join.

[00:30:42:11 – 00:30:59:22]
Well Dalton, I’m not getting any calls on Skype, so I think what I’m going to do is go ahead and free up the landline and see if we get any calls there. I don’t want to keep somebody from getting on that wants to be. I run the risk of letting you go and then having to talk to myself for the next 30 minutes.

[00:31:00:25 – 00:31:01:18]
But I’m going to run that

[00:31:01:18 – 00:31:13:21]
Okay. And thank you, like I said earlier, thank you very much for coming to all the shows. Really, really enjoy it. And I’ll hang on one second. Let me get this call from Wayne.

[00:31:15:16 – 00:31:16:13]
Hello, Wayne.

[00:31:17:18 – 00:31:18:15]
Hey, man. You well?

[00:31:19:15 – 00:31:31:09]
There he is. I’m going to do a little adjustment here on the volume. Yeah, can you hear me? Oh, can you hear me, Wayne? Did you drop the phone, Wayne?

[00:31:31:09 – 00:31:32:27]
I’m there.

[00:31:32:27 – 00:31:36:03]
I just have problems down the scene.

[00:31:36:03 – 00:31:36:12]
able to hear us

[00:31:36:12 – 00:31:37:25]
Yeah, that’s because of gold, mate.

[00:31:39:02 – 00:31:40:26]
Computers playing up. You know, I don’t think we need to be willing to.

[00:31:40:26 – 00:31:44:05]
Okay. I turned you down a little bit.

[00:31:45:09 – 00:31:48:13]
you got a picture on Skype of the Jeep now. It looks dirty. You need to wash it.

[00:31:50:17 – 00:31:51:08]
It’s clean now.

[00:31:51:08 – 00:31:56:01]
I said, um, shut all the other windows down so I can

[00:31:56:01 – 00:31:58:00]
on Skype so that I can’t see the

[00:31:58:00 – 00:31:59:20]
I’m sorry I didn’t catch that.

[00:31:59:20 – 00:32:04:06]
I just had to shut all the windows out. I just had to shut all the other windows down on the computer so I can’t see the show. Oh,

[00:32:04:27 – 00:32:15:19]
That’s why it took so long to dial up the computers. Yeah. Yeah, no problem. Hey, how’s it going with the earthquakes? Have you been having any, is it trailing off or coming back or you just don’t know?

[00:32:17:05 – 00:32:17:15]
Couple each

[00:32:17:15 – 00:32:18:27]
Just had one before.

[00:32:18:27 – 00:32:43:21]
My wife. Hey, I’m sorry. One second. Hey Dalton, I’m hearing a beep and that beep is the battery on this cordless phone dying. My wife hands it to me and she says, it’s fully charged because I was going to bring them both up here, but it’s dying on me. I’m going to let you go. Okay. Just real quick. I wanted to ask Wayne one question.

[00:32:43:21 – 00:32:47:04]
How much mud do you still have in your XJ, Wayne?

[00:32:49:25 – 00:32:51:20]
It’s all clean now, mate. This quack is getting rid of it.

[00:32:54:10 – 00:32:54:28]
Getting shaken

[00:32:57:26 – 00:33:00:27]
Alrighty then, I’ll get on off here. Thanks a lot, Dalton.

[00:33:02:19 – 00:33:03:29]
see you later. Talk to you all later. Alright, bye-bye.

[00:33:08:17 – 00:33:30:01]
Yeah, I was telling my wife earlier that I’ve ordered my own cordless phone so I can make sure that I keep it charged. If you guys are trying to call me on the landline, don’t because the battery is almost dead on the handset and I’ll need to go get the other one here in a moment.

[00:33:30:01 – 00:33:32:28]
Ah, the difficulties of live shows.

[00:33:32:28 – 00:33:36:23]
So Wayne, you were saying the earthquakes are coming and going, huh?

[00:33:36:23 – 00:33:41:14]
I’ve had over 4,200 since September the

[00:33:41:14 – 00:33:47:16]
And you guys are going for how many? Is it 5,000? Then you’re going to stop?

[00:33:47:16 – 00:33:48:06]
know what the record was actually.

[00:33:48:06 – 00:34:17:02]
Stop saying that. Well, you know, I make jokes about that stuff, but I also want you to know that I just don’t know what I would do, especially with the damage that are happening to the structures and your house. That’s got to be something that weighs on your mind. I mean, every time you feel a shake, you don’t know if it’s going to be a minor tremor or if it’s going to be another 7.1.

[00:34:17:02 – 00:34:29:21]
I just watch where I park the Jeep now, mate. Thank you. What happens, really? Yeah, I guess you have to start having that attitude at some point because it very well, I mean, it shows very well that you have no control over what’s going

[00:34:29:21 – 00:34:40:20]
Just judging how powerful the old Mother Nature is when it’s angry. It’s really interesting. It can suck, but it’s also often very interesting.

[00:34:41:21 – 00:34:49:17]
I guess around here, the thing that always impresses me is the weather. You know, we can have hurricanes or some real bad storm systems.

[00:34:51:22 – 00:34:57:27]
Technically, I’m sure we could have an earthquake as well. I’ve just never had one in the long time that I’ve lived here.

[00:34:58:27 – 00:35:00:11]
just not an earthquake-prone

[00:35:00:11 – 00:35:03:07]
We’ve got a few spea you can have for the attorney if you want.

[00:35:04:20 – 00:35:07:13]
I’m sure. I’ll email them to you, mate.

[00:35:08:20 – 00:35:13:12]
I’d like to have some snow from up north. I’m not sure they have the snow than the earthquakes.

[00:35:13:12 – 00:35:27:26]
Yeah, some of those snow picks look pretty good. What can you post it up, eh? Oh, the snow is just beautiful. I think it would be a lot of fun to put it in 4-wheel drive and go through some snow. Of course, I’ve seen some pictures of them getting that snow pretty muddy, pretty

[00:35:30:03 – 00:35:42:05]
Yeah, I can imagine Jim and the snow would be all yellow spots everywhere. That’s right. And every time he breathed on the snow, it would melt a good 50-foot swath of it. He could ride on the hood of the Jeep and just…

[00:35:44:09 – 00:35:48:10]
Just as well. I can’t read the comments, I would say. If

[00:35:48:10 – 00:35:58:06]
you don’t mind, Wayne, if you’re not in too big a hurry, I’m going to throw some music up, run downstairs, and get the other phone so I can take some calls.

[00:35:59:07 – 00:36:02:22]
Yeah, you got us going, mate. Take me all of about 2

[00:36:02:22 – 00:36:23:08]
I was just leaving right now. I’m on vacation, so that’s all good. Excellent. Okay. So I’m going to throw up some music if you like. Chat with the guys here in the chat room. You can talk to them. I’ll turn the music down. I can’t see the chat, so I’ll just wait for you to come back. Okay. I forgot about that. You had to close the windows. Okay. I’ll be right back, guys.

[00:36:44:02 – 00:36:45:18]
(Music) It’ll walk size once.

[00:38:17:06 – 00:38:21:04]
Okay, so, Wynton got the other one, we’ll see how long it lasts.

[00:38:21:04 – 00:38:25:11]
You may need to buy some new batteries for them.

[00:38:27:05 – 00:38:33:06]
Because in her defense, it did show a full charge. So I don’t know. So are you still with us, Wayne?

[00:38:34:21 – 00:38:36:03]
Yeah, I’m still with you, Mike. Right.

[00:38:36:03 – 00:38:45:25]
Hey, Rene, if you wanted to give me a call on the number there on the screen, I can get you and Wayne here at the same time.

[00:38:47:04 – 00:38:48:14]
I’ve got to talk to this mad

[00:38:48:14 – 00:39:01:10]
I’m not cool anyway. I think they’re having their own conversation there in the chat room.

[00:39:03:08 – 00:39:04:23]
Yeah, I’m trying to get it back up so I can see it.

[00:39:06:23 – 00:39:07:23]
So I might drop off too.

[00:39:11:04 – 00:39:13:12]
Ah, Detours, Mark has joined us.

[00:39:15:17 – 00:39:20:18]

right, well, I didn’t mean to play all those, but what the hell?

[00:40:31:29 – 00:40:33:21]
I’ve got to get them in sometime.

[00:40:36:25 – 00:40:46:01]
So I think we talked about this on, well, I can’t remember when the last time we talked, Wayne, but I think we talked about this last time. How do you like that

[00:40:46:01 – 00:40:47:15]
Yeah, it’s great.

[00:40:48:19 – 00:40:51:00]
It’s probably one of the better things I put on the Jeep,

[00:40:51:00 – 00:40:54:06]
self recovery with the fishing and whatnot, when I’m out by

[00:40:55:20 – 00:41:05:00]
I bet you it gives you a better feeling when you go out that you’re going to be able to get yourself out of a predicament. You won’t have to walk back to get some help.

[00:41:06:21 – 00:41:18:06]
The only thing I’ve got to do is I’ve got to pull it all apart, take it out of the bar and get some bolts welded onto the front of my bar so I can bolt the aluminium fairleaders or whatever they’re called on there because I’ve got the rope.

[00:41:19:19 – 00:41:21:27]
The rope cuts on the bar if I don’t do it.

[00:41:23:14 – 00:41:26:06]
Well, we’ve got a caller on the landline. Let’s see who it is.

[00:41:27:07 – 00:41:27:29]
Thanks for calling. Who we got?

[00:41:28:21 – 00:41:39:02]
It’s me. It’s Rene. Arganard XJtalk. Arganard from XJtalk.com, better known as Rene. R-E-N-E. I called him Rene for the first 30 minutes, I guess.

[00:41:39:02 – 00:41:41:03]
actually, I think it was the first day.

[00:41:42:08 – 00:41:43:25]
I was being kind to myself, I guess.

[00:41:43:25 – 00:41:48:19]
Well, Rene, I don’t know if you know Wayne. This is Rene. Rene, Wayne.

[00:41:50:15 – 00:41:51:16]
I only know him a little bit.

[00:41:52:17 – 00:41:54:23]
Well, I’m sorry. Did I, Wayne? I’m sorry. He did say

[00:41:54:23 – 00:41:56:04]
so I guess he does now.

[00:41:57:23 – 00:41:58:28]
I can’t hear

[00:41:59:15 – 00:42:01:28]
There he is. Yeah, he wasn’t talking. That’s why.

[00:42:01:28 – 00:42:03:17]
Hey there, big fella.

[00:42:04:29 – 00:42:05:14]
How you doing,

[00:42:05:14 – 00:42:07:04]
Yeah, I’m good, mate. I’m good.

[00:42:09:18 – 00:42:10:20]
So, you been wheeling, Rene?

[00:42:12:15 – 00:42:13:11]
Sorry, what was that, mate?

[00:42:14:16 – 00:42:15:19]
You been wheeling, Rene?

[00:42:16:26 – 00:42:18:17]
I went out for a quick one the other night.

[00:42:20:03 – 00:42:23:02]
Yeah, like I said, it took me three hours to watch the thing.

[00:42:24:08 – 00:42:25:01]
The moys away, the window’s open.

[00:42:25:01 – 00:42:31:19]
Oh, so you… Videos up of what I put up last time we went wheeling, two Jeets almost flipped. I saw that.

[00:42:31:19 – 00:42:34:09]
seen that, mate. I saw that yours didn’t.

[00:42:35:13 – 00:42:41:25]
Oh, no, mine’s too damn low. Mine dropped off that same ledge and my rock wheel hit the ground, so I couldn’t even go anywhere.

[00:42:43:26 – 00:42:44:15]
Well, I guess that was good.

[00:42:45:24 – 00:42:47:22]
Just got a counterbalance on it, though, Rene, ain’t it?

[00:42:49:13 – 00:42:52:05]
No, I was on the… No, I remember we drive on the right side over here.

[00:42:53:06 – 00:42:54:12]
Y’all are on the wrong side of the

[00:42:56:26 – 00:43:03:23]
Let’s have a look at you, mate. It’s just saying there Andy can’t get on the show, Tony, on the chat.

[00:43:06:00 – 00:43:16:19]
it’s really… Who can’t? I think it’s… I can’t get on the other chat, but he says he darned show kicked me off. Yeah. Oh, yours. Go ahead.

[00:43:19:13 – 00:43:20:17]
Oh, yeah, I see that.

[00:43:20:17 – 00:43:23:29]
He can’t get on the other chat, okay.

[00:43:23:29 – 00:43:37:13]
Yeah, that can happen. I mean, I don’t know… We had talked before that your bandwidth isn’t… It kind of comes and goes, so it could be a little much to do Skype and to get in the chat room at the same time.

[00:43:39:23 – 00:43:40:23]
No, Andy can’t get

[00:43:40:23 – 00:43:47:01]
Yeah, that’s Andy. On, man, Andy. Oh, really? Yeah, damn show kicked me off.

[00:43:48:04 – 00:43:56:19]
the one? He just typed in the pad on X-ray. Okay, I wonder why. I wonder what kind of language he was using in the chat or something.

[00:43:58:20 – 00:44:03:04]
Well, it didn’t bleep out my F word, which I was really surprised on.

[00:44:04:24 – 00:44:08:02]
You know, I may need to get some moderators so they can ban people like you.

[00:44:08:02 – 00:44:09:10]
Yes, I know.

[00:44:12:18 – 00:44:15:28]
Oh, there you guys, Jim. Jim a moderator.

[00:44:16:23 – 00:44:23:06]
Jim would be an excellent moderator. He would be able to know when the word was about to be spoken before it was actually… before it was spoken.

[00:44:25:08 – 00:44:36:00]
You can be that language moderator. Gucci moderator. It’s like hackers, you know, the best anti-hackers are the best hackers. So same type of deal there.

[00:44:36:00 – 00:44:38:22]
Let’s see.

[00:44:39:23 – 00:44:43:00]
I just wanted to say XJ talk is the best

[00:44:43:00 – 00:44:44:07]
site in the

[00:44:44:07 – 00:44:46:27]
world. And if you think you know a better

[00:44:46:27 – 00:44:47:17]
site,

[00:44:47:17 – 00:44:51:00]
you. By the way, this is big Jim 350.

[00:44:54:01 – 00:44:57:04]
The Legion is born. That was great.

[00:45:00:03 – 00:45:10:14]
You know what’s too funny about that? If you look at a picture of Bear, if you go to his Facebook and he’s a friend of yours on Facebook, him and Jim look like they could almost be brothers.

[00:45:10:14 – 00:45:23:27]
That sounds like it would be some good matching bookends to take off-road with you, especially if you’re going back in the somewhere in the deep south. I mean, I guess we’re as deep south as you get, but I mean, you know more where there’s more trees.

[00:45:25:29 – 00:45:27:29]
More trees and Banjo’s playing.

[00:45:27:29 – 00:45:34:07]
Yeah, one thing’s for sure. If you’re in a ball with them too, I don’t think you have to worry about nobody deciding that they want to fight you.

[00:45:35:04 – 00:45:38:28]
shouldn’t be. Of course, you know alcohol will make people brave.

[00:45:42:08 – 00:45:43:15]
How,

[00:45:43:15 – 00:45:45:12]
how far behind are we?

[00:45:46:06 – 00:45:50:14]
I’m noticing on the chat when we say something it takes a little bit for it to come

[00:45:50:14 – 00:45:54:24]
up. How far behind are we or how afford are we of the

[00:45:54:24 – 00:46:10:00]
It’s really hard to say because there’s going to be a delay from what I’m sending out going to Ustream and then Ustream is going to have a delay going to U and it’s going to vary depending on what each one of the connect speeds are.

[00:46:10:00 – 00:46:26:22]
other words, how much bandwidth is available for each of the viewers? So it could be a couple of seconds to, you know, like you were experiencing on the phone that one time, you were, what was it, a 10 or 11 second lag time between what you were hearing from me and what you were hearing on your computer.

[00:46:27:24 – 00:46:43:03]
Yeah, that was on Valero or Varro. What did it have here? It’s called, right? Ventrilo, yeah. Yeah, Ventrilo. But you were also listening to your computer, I think, at the time and there was a long delay between what you were hearing on the phone and what you were hearing coming from your computer, the show, in other words.

[00:46:43:03 – 00:46:44:00]
Right.

[00:46:45:28 – 00:46:47:15]
And I have my volume all the way down. I’m listening to the same guy because I’m in the future.

[00:46:48:22 – 00:47:05:27]
We’re talking, that’s right. Wayne, we’re talking to the far future. I still want some lottery numbers, Wayne. It’s not saying, it’s not saying. Yeah, Wayne, why don’t you call us with the lottery numbers from last night? We could have spent $350 million, dude. Man, I would have been happy to buy you a new steering wheel for your Jeep or something.

[00:47:08:02 – 00:47:09:20]
Number five in the first leg, boys.

[00:47:12:03 – 00:47:12:16]
have flown you over

[00:47:13:05 – 00:47:16:18]
And your Jeep. Hell, we just got you a new one.

[00:47:19:13 – 00:47:20:15]
Just a steering wheel. All

[00:47:20:15 – 00:47:24:29]
right, we’re going to get you out of that damn earthquake infested place that you’re living right

[00:47:26:17 – 00:47:30:06]
I like it. It’s a beautiful place, but man, it just needs to quit shaking.

[00:47:30:06 – 00:47:33:21]
I see me cousins all around. I’m saying, because I think it’s underwater.

[00:47:34:29 – 00:47:50:22]
Yeah, and they need to put up another red light. What part of Australia is that, that they’re having all the rain? Queensland. Yeah, Queensland. Yeah, Rockhampton, and it’s heading into New South Wales as well from the last last I read. It’s quite bad.

[00:47:53:13 – 00:47:54:19]
And that’s from a storm system.

[00:47:55:21 – 00:48:02:27]
Yeah, they are not in all the crocodiles and like swimming with a not mean to be in all the poison snakes around and around. They got everything over there.

[00:48:04:24 – 00:48:06:26]
Well, you ain’t got no poisonous snakes over there, do you?

[00:48:08:09 – 00:48:12:14]
Well, we got nothing. That’s interesting. I didn’t know that. Nothing. I don’t want to

[00:48:13:01 – 00:48:20:22]
Yeah, there’s nothing in New Zealand that can hurt you, correct? Or hurt a human. There’s nothing poisonous. There’s nothing to eat you. Not like here, right?

[00:48:21:28 – 00:48:28:24]
Not the only thing we got is wild pigs, mate. No, at least you annoy them when they’re around here. Young and sweet as.

[00:48:33:08 – 00:48:35:29]
My Mrs. is pretty poisonous. She’s scary. Oh my God.

[00:48:37:01 – 00:48:39:00]
The what are? His wife.

[00:48:40:12 – 00:48:46:25]
Oh, he is playing with fire there. He could wake up dead some morning.

[00:48:49:03 – 00:48:54:29]
You can’t read what Jim just wrote, can you, Wayne?

[00:48:54:29 – 00:48:59:03]
Yeah, even the one that’s gonna be in New Zealand. Oh, Mark would like for you to say vegemite.

[00:49:00:02 – 00:49:04:26]
Vegemite. Vegemite. Vegemite. We also got Marmite as well.

[00:49:06:12 – 00:49:11:20]
Is that confusion? You also have white? Marmite. Marmite.

[00:49:12:21 – 00:49:14:11]
Marmite is vegemite but with an M.

[00:49:14:11 – 00:49:16:05]
Ah.

[00:49:16:28 – 00:49:21:10]
Yeah, vegemite’s Australian, Marmite’s New Zealand. I think one’s vegies and one’s might be meat.

[00:49:22:19 – 00:49:24:14]
Okay. Exactly the same way, young fellow Salomon.

[00:49:26:06 – 00:49:29:05]
Is that stuff like a peanut butter or what is that stuff?

[00:49:31:03 – 00:49:32:10]
Uh, it’s different.

[00:49:34:03 – 00:49:39:26]
It’s technical. It’s actually, it’s actually good on toast but it’s good for a stocked for if you’re making stew and

[00:49:42:03 – 00:49:46:01]
Oh, really? Yeah. Did you read what Toby just put on there?

[00:49:46:01 – 00:49:45:26]
can’t

[00:49:45:26 – 00:49:46:27]
Oh.

[00:49:48:02 – 00:49:53:25]
He said, uh, what did he say? Where’d it go? He said something about it tastes like crap. Doo doo.

[00:49:56:21 – 00:49:57:27]
Dunno, it never tasted crap.

[00:49:59:11 – 00:50:07:29]
Oh, he said both gross. Doo doo. Great. Full body work. Great full body work. Yeah, I can understand. I can believe that.

[00:50:07:29 – 00:50:11:11]
There was a member on here who does like it. That doesn’t taste so good.

[00:50:11:11 – 00:50:13:02]
Sorry, Wayne said it again.

[00:50:14:17 – 00:50:21:02]
There is a member on here who does like it. I posted a picture of it on top of me. Jee, thought it was brilliant. A can of vegemite, Marmite, vegemite.

[00:50:22:15 – 00:50:23:08]
With a Jeep emblem.

[00:50:27:01 – 00:50:29:01]
Toby says they have crabs. What has crabs?

[00:50:31:14 – 00:50:31:27]
What’s that?

[00:50:33:29 – 00:50:37:13]
I don’t know. Toby says they have crabs in chat.

[00:50:37:13 – 00:50:43:17]
Marmite, Marmite, both gross. It’s different, much better for you. Doo doo. Great for body work.

[00:50:45:13 – 00:50:47:24]
Read it all. Read it all, Tony. Contact, right?

[00:50:49:27 – 00:50:53:09]
It’s easier for me just to say what the hell you talking about. Make you type it again.

[00:50:54:16 – 00:51:01:01]
Wayne has crabs. Do you have crabs, Wayne? Big Jim says you have crabs. I didn’t know you guys were that close.

[00:51:01:01 – 00:51:08:29]
Hey, you missed the one part. Wayne, you need some paste picante

[00:51:08:29 – 00:51:11:23]
You don’t even know what that is over there, do you, Wayne?

[00:51:12:24 – 00:51:13:11]
What’s that?

[00:51:14:13 – 00:51:14:28]
Paste picante sauce.

[00:51:16:08 – 00:51:24:27]
No idea, man. It’s hot sauce. It’s peppers and tomatoes. Similar, except it’s more tomato-y.

[00:51:25:29 – 00:51:28:01]
Not just chili. No vinegar.

[00:51:30:28 – 00:51:31:28]
Tabasco sauce is good.

[00:51:33:14 – 00:51:41:18]
Yeah, Tabasco sauce. They make you drink more beer, man. Tabasco sauce has a lot of vinegar in it. But there are several hot sauces that have that. They’re very vinegary.

[00:51:44:15 – 00:51:46:03]
are you watching over there? It’s vodka.

[00:51:47:14 – 00:51:48:16]
the TV. What are you watching?

[00:51:48:16 – 00:51:51:09]
It’s not me.

[00:51:51:09 – 00:51:51:19]
must be Rainey.

[00:51:52:28 – 00:51:54:20]
Oh, my son’s flipping around channels.

[00:51:54:20 – 00:51:57:20]
Cops.

[00:51:59:04 – 00:52:00:08]
Hobie says cops.

[00:52:01:08 – 00:52:05:16]
Any fine Marmite can be used as a wrapper on your joint.

[00:52:05:16 – 00:52:11:09]
Man, I don’t know about this. This is going a bad direction.

[00:52:13:06 – 00:52:14:18]
It’s a big gym direction.

[00:52:16:04 – 00:52:20:06]
Okay. Now let me sign up. This is big gym 350, and I

[00:52:20:06 – 00:52:22:27]
wall of xjtalk.com.

[00:52:32:02 – 00:52:33:09]
Well, everybody’s talking about what they’re watching tonight.

[00:52:33:09 – 00:52:39:12]
Oh, bear put on there. All right, y’all quit picking on my little brother.

[00:52:39:12 – 00:52:44:21]
Hey, three. Now I guess Jim is younger. So

[00:52:44:21 – 00:52:46:13]
one of them are very old.

[00:52:46:13 – 00:52:49:09]
How old are you? How old are you, Dalton?

[00:52:52:13 – 00:52:52:22]
Thirty-seven.

[00:52:54:02 – 00:52:57:22]
Yeah, like thirty seven point nine because he’ll be thirty eight next week.

[00:53:02:28 – 00:53:03:24]
My birthday’s at the end of the month, so.

[00:53:03:24 – 00:53:07:22]
use, Wayne, you guys use the metric system over there,

[00:53:07:22 – 00:53:12:27]
Yes. How old would Jim, I mean, how old is Dalton going to be in metric?

[00:53:14:11 – 00:53:14:28]
One hundred and fifty-seven.

[00:53:17:08 – 00:53:19:03]
He just sounds really old, eh?

[00:53:20:17 – 00:53:26:21]
It’s not the age, it’s the mileage. It’s the redneck lifestyle, the roadkill. He’s told me all

[00:53:26:21 – 00:53:29:20]
Yeah, you have to pick your roadkill right around here.

[00:53:31:05 – 00:53:37:29]
We have armadillas. That’s stuff, Matt, you got to leave it. We have armadillas and they have a hard shell, so it’s actually roadkill on the half shell.

[00:53:40:07 – 00:53:41:18]
You just heat that up and have a soup.

[00:53:44:05 – 00:53:53:23]
You know, actually, the armadillas kind of interesting. It’s the only other animal that can catch leprosy, humans and armadillas.

[00:53:53:23 – 00:53:58:24]
Wow. Yeah, I did not know that. Well, actually, I knew it now, but earlier I did not know that.

[00:53:58:24 – 00:54:09:04]
Well, it’s like around here. I’ve been seeing a lot of deer run over lately. I mean, every day on my way to work, I probably see two or three new kills of deer.

[00:54:11:08 – 00:54:14:04]
Bigger cara, pretty good one, though. One of those

[00:54:14:04 – 00:54:19:26]
detours would like to know how hard is it to manage XJ XJ talk? What do you mean detours?

[00:54:21:23 – 00:54:31:08]
And what about what Toby just put armadillo equals possibly with armor. That’s true. But the detours what what gives you the slightest idea that it’s managed at

[00:54:36:17 – 00:54:37:19]
Gems in charge. Yes.

[00:54:37:19 – 00:54:38:16]
right.

[00:54:40:17 – 00:54:58:21]
Most environmentally conscious. The sight time. Not very hard. It’s it’s pretty easy. I don’t have a lot of problem with with people posting spam or picking on other people. Rene is a moderator. Rene, how much moderating do you do?

[00:55:00:08 – 00:55:07:19]
Well, you know, it’s funny, the very first day I became a mod member, I had that one I had a pull somebody’s post. You had a spammer. That’s right. You really did.

[00:55:08:26 – 00:55:19:22]
No, not the spammer. Remember, I had I was it a real bad joke was I don’t remember what it was. But it was something I had to pull their foot there had to pull their post. I bet you it was punishers.

[00:55:21:17 – 00:55:26:11]
I bet it was too. Because Punisher goes over the educationally not not real far, but just over.

[00:55:27:26 – 00:55:35:03]
He’s real. I think I could tell you. He’s real good natured about it, though. But there was one that somebody that was posting something about selling phones.

[00:55:35:03 – 00:55:39:16]
selling stones. I found selling

[00:55:39:16 – 00:55:42:28]
Yeah, iPhones. And so yeah,

[00:55:42:28 – 00:55:43:19]
thought that was the way we’re talking

[00:55:43:19 – 00:55:46:02]
Now that was that was way later.

[00:55:48:12 – 00:55:50:20]
The

[00:55:50:20 – 00:55:52:23]
tour says the questions will get harder as we

[00:55:53:21 – 00:55:59:04]
We need to get Jim on her to answer him then because he’ll make quick. He’ll make short work of the hard answers.

[00:55:59:04 – 00:56:06:06]
I wish I could beat myself. I would say because he would say I wouldn’t beeping. No, I don’t beeping. No, what the answer

[00:56:06:06 – 00:56:07:24]
I

[00:56:07:24 – 00:56:09:27]
get me the really big glass of tea.

[00:56:09:27 – 00:56:11:09]
Where’s the camera?

[00:56:11:09 – 00:56:15:14]
you can’t see my glass. I have a nice big beer mug, but I don’t drink

[00:56:16:03 – 00:56:18:25]
Used to drink Coke. So, so can Jim say

[00:56:18:25 – 00:56:20:17]
can you see my mug?

[00:56:22:27 – 00:56:23:16]
There you go.

[00:56:23:16 – 00:56:26:05]
$2 $2 mug. It

[00:56:26:05 – 00:56:28:27]
probably a quart of liquid.

[00:56:28:27 – 00:56:40:00]
Toby says I can’t find the post that I had to move originally. Oh my God. There’s there’s I think there’s 50,000 posts on XJ talk now. And we’re coming up on the two year mark.

[00:56:40:00 – 00:56:41:17]
March, it’ll be two

[00:56:41:17 – 00:56:52:11]
And it is a it is a very difficult task to try to find anything that happened any time ago, any time back. It’s it’s really hard even with the search thing.

[00:57:00:05 – 00:57:05:04]
Well, that’s nice. See, that’s that that’s that piece of equipment I have here. Everybody stopped talking and it got

[00:57:05:04 – 00:57:12:21]
course, everybody, everybody at home thought that their internet was, you know, went down or their computer froze. But you know, that’s the danger of quiet.

[00:57:12:21 – 00:57:17:21]
my boys just loaded a video which keeps on YouTube on the TV.

[00:57:17:21 – 00:57:20:20]
Over your ways. I’m just trying to figure out where it is.

[00:57:25:22 – 00:57:27:09]
When’s your next competition going on?

[00:57:28:12 – 00:57:28:27]
For us.

[00:57:28:27 – 00:57:30:19]
your next competition going

[00:57:30:19 – 00:57:35:00]
The summit coming up the next month. It’s teams one.

[00:57:35:00 – 00:57:38:02]
to get three Jeeps together. Well, last long. You

[00:57:38:02 – 00:57:39:27]
were talking while he was talking.

[00:57:42:11 – 00:57:45:12]
So you got one next month going, you’re gonna have three Jeeps going. You’re gonna put yours

[00:57:45:12 – 00:57:46:28]
Yeah, but still going.

[00:57:46:28 – 00:57:52:29]
wait for that red one to be finished. That’s gonna be the main one. What do you mean if it’s if it’s still going? You’re having problems

[00:57:54:05 – 00:57:54:21]
It’s a Jeep.

[00:57:54:21 – 00:58:06:17]
Well, you’re talking about putting Toyota axles under yours, aren’t you? Now, that’s what’s happening to that red one. I’ve got to go and get updates on it. There’s some stuff. They’re waiting stuff from the states to arrive. There’s pretty missing Safari.

[00:58:06:17 – 00:58:12:05]
Diffs under it. Toyota trans on it.

[00:58:12:05 – 00:58:14:24]
running. 37 has been beefing up their body work or whatnot.

[00:58:14:24 – 00:58:18:28]
You’re talking about the red one. That’s the 98, right?

[00:58:18:28 – 00:58:19:12]
that looks just like mine.

[00:58:19:12 – 00:58:28:28]
No, he sold that. He sold it? He took he couldn’t sell it. So he took the lift out of it and sold it for six, six grand. He’s got the lift for sale for 1300.

[00:58:30:22 – 00:58:35:04]
was he was wanting to make that Jeep look just like mine and he sold it. I can’t believe he sold

[00:58:35:04 – 00:58:49:25]
I had a chance to start his own business, Tony. We tracking business. So you had to do it. You know, free up some money. No, no, of course. Just, you know, from all is excited as he was about that Jeep. That must have been a hard sell for him.

[00:58:49:25 – 00:58:52:15]
it was pretty sad. But hey, I got a good one shot

[00:58:52:15 – 00:58:58:18]
because he got off that deal, but he was selling his Jeep. So I was next in line. So hey,

[00:58:58:18 – 00:59:05:08]
didn’t know that I got a question for you, Wayne. On your winch, have you used a little remote control for yours yet?

[00:59:06:18 – 00:59:06:29]
That’s all I

[00:59:06:29 – 00:59:09:23]
I haven’t used the plug in one year, but it works good as gold.

[00:59:09:23 – 00:59:14:02]
you have any weird issues with it or is it normal?

[00:59:14:14 – 00:59:17:24]
No, it’s got to go. I’ve only used it twice. So I’m ready.

[00:59:19:07 – 00:59:27:08]
But it’s because it’s a battery operated. I use that just sat in the cab, just making the wheels work, but not spinning and digging. So it’s not

[00:59:27:08 – 00:59:28:18]
When I start.

[00:59:30:23 – 00:59:33:29]
Hey, what winch do you have? Detours just ask what wins you got.

[00:59:33:29 – 00:59:36:13]
at work. Oh, sorry, mate.

[00:59:36:13 – 00:59:39:03]
It’s pre

[00:59:39:03 – 00:59:40:20]
max Chinese.

[00:59:40:20 – 00:59:43:10]
That’s probably the same as a lot of the ones in there.

[00:59:43:10 – 00:59:46:06]
there, but it’s 12,000 pound

[00:59:46:06 – 00:59:48:22]
pre max pre max, I think. Yeah.

[00:59:48:22 – 01:00:03:01]
It’s it’s up on the site. Mark, he posted posted it when he got the winch. And there’s a section. I think the post is where he’s he’s getting it mounted in the winch. I mean, in the bottom.

[01:00:03:01 – 01:00:04:29]
It’s as the end of.

[01:00:04:29 – 01:00:13:28]
I did put the name on it because I actually googled myself because there’s actually no name on it. Oh, okay. Which is always a good sign. Yeah. But as long as it works.

[01:00:14:17 – 01:00:23:01]
Well, because the Chinese ones is set so many of them, it’s like when they first come out, people didn’t like them. But hey, a lot of people run them over here now. They’re so much cheaper than

[01:00:23:01 – 01:00:27:00]
want and whatnot. Oh my God, the ones are incredibly expensive.

[01:00:27:00 – 01:00:34:19]
I imagine what they are like down here. They’re pretty unreal. Yeah, they’re very heavy. So I imagine they’d be very expensive to ship.

[01:00:35:25 – 01:00:39:27]
that’s that’s why I’m just going to start looking into the Chinese lockers, air

[01:00:41:07 – 01:00:45:01]
That’s interesting. Well, people just started using them down here.

[01:00:46:05 – 01:00:47:22]
If it goes the same way as the winches

[01:00:47:22 – 01:00:48:22]
be worth looking

[01:00:48:22 – 01:00:52:11]
Well, what kind of lockers do they have? What kind of lockers do the Chinese have?

[01:00:52:11 – 01:00:58:07]
all new. They’re just I’ve just started looking into them now. Same thing. All different names probably the same out of the same

[01:00:58:07 – 01:01:11:08]
They’re they’re ARB type, Rene. I saw I mean, I don’t know if that’s exactly the same one that that Wayne’s talking about, but I saw some videos on YouTube. They were actually showing ARB was actually showing

[01:01:12:20 – 01:01:46:05]
how poorly they were built compared to the ARB. I mean, obviously, if somebody comes out with something that’s half the price or less than an ARB, ARB is going to show that there’s problems with it. So I don’t know how accurate it was. It was just it was just something they were showing. But you can you can just do an ARB search on YouTube. And I bet you’ll find that. I bet you’ll find that video. It was really interesting. They had it on machine and they were basically twisting the shaft until failure. And the as I recall, the airlocker, the Chinese made airlocker actually exploded out.

[01:01:48:05 – 01:01:48:24]
Really? Yeah, I got

[01:01:48:24 – 01:01:55:13]
I got some info posted up at a later date. I’ve got that same thing you’re talking about to Tony with some interesting comments.

[01:01:55:13 – 01:02:07:03]
I got a question for you, Wayne. You’re a whole lot closer to ARB than we are. Can’t you get an ARB locker for a lot less than we can? I mean, you’re a whole lot closer to Australia than we are. That’s

[01:02:07:27 – 01:02:10:10]
You probably you wouldn’t get any change out of TK, mate.

[01:02:10:10 – 01:02:16:02]
say two grand for one two thousand dollars? Yeah, yeah, you wouldn’t get any change out of TK, easy.

[01:02:17:17 – 01:02:22:07]
That’s one bar I got on my this ARB. Cost me sixteen hundred dollars. My that’s just

[01:02:22:07 – 01:02:24:25]
But no one makes anything

[01:02:24:25 – 01:02:24:21]
here.

[01:02:26:23 – 01:02:28:27]
Over here, they’re about what,

[01:02:28:27 – 01:02:32:01]
Thousand dollars. Now eight fifty

[01:02:32:01 – 01:02:44:21]
hundred. Right. But but you don’t need you get one compressor and, you know, so sixteen, seventeen hundred dollars and other. So two thousand dollars would buy you two lockers and air compressor.

[01:02:44:21 – 01:02:47:25]
And that’s the air compressor, the ARB air compressor.

[01:02:47:25 – 01:03:16:29]
They’re probably a freight or what do you call it import bulk lots into America. That’s probably why prices are different because we only got four million people here. Black of these two hundred of the Japes kind of thing, you know. Yeah, but I kind of agree with with Rene. I would think that because your proximity to Australia, it wouldn’t cost that much to to ship them from Australia to New Zealand. I mean, I guess in an American’s eyes, you don’t seem to be that very far apart. So I would think that it wouldn’t

[01:03:16:29 – 01:03:21:14]
Take much to get something from there to, you know, from Australia to New Zealand.

[01:03:22:19 – 01:03:23:28]
Australia hates us because we beat them at rugby.

[01:03:26:23 – 01:03:28:28]
Well, that’s that’s his bad business.

[01:03:30:13 – 01:03:42:01]
We just beat him at rugby league. So, hey, they got to learn to grab them. I see this in Australia on site now. I better be careful. You know, four million people in New Zealand. How do you find a wife?

[01:03:44:02 – 01:03:44:10]
Alcohol.

[01:03:48:14 – 01:03:50:29]
That’s not very many people. I think there’s there’s more people than that in Houston.

[01:03:50:29 – 01:03:53:20]
I was thinking New York for damn sure.

[01:03:53:20 – 01:04:06:20]
In the city here is just like, I think these three three three hundred thousand in crosshuge. So many, so many lovely ones. Thanks for dropping by. Flex flexes taking off. We’re actually running a little a little long tonight, guys.

[01:04:06:20 – 01:04:09:18]
Wayne, what’s the ratio of guys and

[01:04:09:18 – 01:04:15:14]
I think there is a man drought. So they say I was watching a thing on TV the other night. These smaller than me.

[01:04:15:14 – 01:04:17:27]
I know Jim is going over there now.

[01:04:18:21 – 01:04:22:18]
A lot of the. Women like let me book a flight now.

[01:04:22:18 – 01:04:29:28]
Jim’s got really surprised Jim has not commented on that yet. Jim is going to have to get enough. He’s at the info. Jim’s going to have to get a note from his wife.

[01:04:30:27 – 01:04:31:06]
Right.

[01:04:41:10 – 01:04:42:24]
Yeah. Seven seven to one. And awesome.

[01:04:42:24 – 01:04:47:29]
That’s some for me, Wayne. Big Jim says catch some for me, Wayne.

[01:04:49:29 – 01:04:51:12]
What do you got a couple on that for big Jim?

[01:04:54:04 – 01:04:56:23]
Yeah, let me get there about three foot tall.

[01:04:59:06 – 01:05:00:09]
He started all that, mate.

[01:05:02:14 – 01:05:05:24]
I just coppin it. I just wear it. I just take it on the chin. It’s all

[01:05:07:12 – 01:05:09:01]
Oh, actually, you get a T-shirt made up. I like.

[01:05:09:01 – 01:05:12:01]
What was I going to say? I like doing

[01:05:15:07 – 01:05:15:29]
Toby says,

[01:05:15:29 – 01:05:17:05]
You don’t have

[01:05:17:05 – 01:05:19:21]
use in New Zealand, do you? That’s all in Australia.

[01:05:19:21 – 01:05:21:09]
what was that? You don’t have

[01:05:21:09 – 01:05:23:26]
in New Zealand, do you? That’s in Australia.

[01:05:24:09 – 01:05:27:08]
No, this is Africa somewhere. They

[01:05:27:08 – 01:05:33:09]
Aborigines in Australia. Aborigines. That’s what I was thinking. Aborigines. Can’t say it, but that’s what I was thinking. Aborigines,

[01:05:34:03 – 01:05:35:17]
Indigenous people. Right.

[01:05:37:03 – 01:05:38:03]
we have Amazon marries.

[01:05:38:13 – 01:05:41:22]
Hey, detours. I used to have a bumper sticker on my big Chevrolet.

[01:05:41:22 – 01:05:45:15]
said lifted high. Fat girls can’t jump. Oh, man.

[01:05:49:23 – 01:05:50:19]
I bet you got some looks.

[01:05:51:20 – 01:05:56:12]
But I also had one on the same truck that said, you don’t like my driving dial 1-800 each

[01:05:56:12 – 01:05:58:05]
So, you know, what the hell?

[01:05:59:16 – 01:06:31:21]
You know, I was saying that one on the other was TARAC areas. You know, I was thinking about that one of these with the way technology is now. You can get 800 number for pretty cheap. It would be fun to set up an 800 number that basically just told you to go F yourself. And give everybody these stickers. How’s my driving call 800? You know, blah, blah, blah. And this recording this comes on and screams holy hell at you. Like mind your own damn business. You don’t like the way I drive, get off the sidewalk. I think it’d be hilarious, especially if you could record, if you could record, you know, the call. I think that’d be a lot of fun.

[01:06:32:24 – 01:06:35:23]
Did you see what Toby just read on there?

[01:06:35:23 – 01:06:41:07]
He said, I saw one that said one ton axles fat girls allowed. Or

[01:06:41:07 – 01:06:42:04]
something like that.

[01:06:42:04 – 01:07:11:16]
Yeah, it’s good. A lot of new members posting now, Tony, a lot of blue. It’s good. Yeah, actually, I had to make some changes to the the newsletter, the biweekly newsletter. And finally got those changes. So I sent that out and that always gets a lot of people onto the site. I’m a little surprised. At least they’re not at least they’re not complaining about getting the newsletter, but it seems to remind people about XJ talk. And I don’t know how they can forget about it myself.

[01:07:11:16 – 01:07:14:14]
Just need a few more green ones on them, mate.

[01:07:17:01 – 01:07:30:04]
I’ve seen two green ones now that they’ve both been flipped and Yeah, that one from Australian. Well, forgotten his username, actually, his wife flipped it. Yeah, man, that was horrible. I cannot believe she came out of that unscratched.

[01:07:30:04 – 01:07:31:20]
pretty banged up. Well, you know, it’s

[01:07:31:20 – 01:07:33:06]
Go ahead, Wayne. I’m sorry.

[01:07:33:06 – 01:07:39:04]
Just saying about that poster from the Australian guy, his wife, flipped the XJ. I was pretty banged up. I don’t know if you’ve seen the

[01:07:39:04 – 01:07:48:05]
Yeah, I did. You know, the amazing thing is, I guess he let it go to the insurance company. I was thinking, man, cut the top off of it, put a cage in it. You got an instant off road buggy.

[01:07:48:05 – 01:07:51:06]
they’re over in Australia, mate. They’re really young.

[01:07:52:09 – 01:07:52:22]
I’m going to

[01:07:52:22 – 01:08:02:10]
about mods you can do to your vehicles. But you can’t you can only lift a certain high. They’re really, really strict on it. On what you can do to four wheel drives or hot rides or whatever

[01:08:02:10 – 01:08:11:23]
That’s really that’s amazing. It that is my image of Australia at all. I mean, I know that they’ve got gun control, major gun control over there now. It just,

[01:08:11:23 – 01:08:15:23]
to me, Australia is like it was like Texas. It was just wild

[01:08:15:23 – 01:08:23:08]
you know, pretty much anything went. At least that’s what I had in my mind. I don’t know what how that meshes with reality.

[01:08:23:08 – 01:08:45:09]
Now, years ago when they sent all the what are the convicts from England? Maybe then, but now it’s really funny over there about their four wheel drives. I’m actually on a cheap Aussie one and they’re always moaning about not allowed any more than 1.5, 2.0 inch lift in Queensland or New South Wales or wherever it is. It’s really crazy. But they got some really different wheeling over

[01:08:45:09 – 01:08:46:23]
Yeah, they’d have to.

[01:08:47:25 – 01:08:54:16]
A lot of a lot of touring where they go up the cape and then you won’t see anyone for days. So you’re going to be all like self-sufficient. Quite interesting stuff.

[01:08:54:16 – 01:08:58:29]
know what amazes me. Doesn’t like Australia have like a ton of dirt

[01:08:58:29 – 01:09:03:24]
Yes. This, um, how

[01:09:03:24 – 01:09:04:17]
can you how can you patrol

[01:09:05:06 – 01:09:07:08]
They don’t just go for it. They have, um,

[01:09:07:08 – 01:09:08:05]
just go

[01:09:08:05 – 01:09:15:15]
There’s a they have the truck trains out there. That’s the only thing you watch for. Apparently you can see the dust coming and you just pulled it side of the road.

[01:09:17:00 – 01:09:28:17]
go past. But they do. They do. They’re going to be self-supplicant. Most of the mods in their trucks, they got to put like water tanks in their in their trucks stuff. There’s a few XJ’s who taught on the side. Oh, I should post them up.

[01:09:31:05 – 01:09:36:02]
Well, how’s your laws pretty strict over there about lifting and stuff for not so bad?

[01:09:37:09 – 01:09:48:16]
so bad. I’ve got a suit for my left and for the size of my rooms, but it’s only more for insurance. But we got some pretty big trucks over here. All right. Legal.

[01:09:48:16 – 01:09:50:00]
I’m sure it should be.

[01:09:50:00 – 01:10:09:13]
You know, it’s funny because Tony and I have both in Texas and a lot of the fact Tony, I big Jim, we’re all from, we’re all in Texas. And there’s like the only laws we have as far as lifting is your headlights can’t be above 54 inches in the air. Other than that, pretty much open. No fender flares, no

[01:10:09:13 – 01:10:19:06]
nothing. Yeah. No mudflakes. You don’t have to run fender fliers. I got to cover 80% of my tire or something. So what sticks out?

[01:10:19:06 – 01:10:22:02]
Well, actually, I think it’s California. You have to cover the entire tire.

[01:10:22:02 – 01:10:32:22]
Oh, really? Yeah, but it’s a show pony state, isn’t it? California is very liberal and very climes the their politics and laws really climb up the people’s

[01:10:32:22 – 01:10:37:11]
in California. There’s just no way I don’t want to say. I need some charges that way.

[01:10:38:24 – 01:10:43:14]
he’s gone now. As of January 1st, he’s no longer governor.

[01:10:44:06 – 01:10:45:13]
Must be making movies again, is he?

[01:10:46:23 – 01:10:47:11]
We’ll see.

[01:10:47:11 – 01:10:49:14]
I kind of doubt

[01:10:49:14 – 01:10:52:09]
He wasn’t very popular as governor over there.

[01:10:53:11 – 01:10:54:28]
Okay, we said we get a lot of your

[01:10:55:28 – 01:11:14:26]
Detour is here what they what they said in what Toby said in Oregon. Do you have more than an inch of tire past the flares here or mudflaps are required in Oregon? Yeah, I know there’s been I’ve seen some posts where people have mudflaps on and I just I would not be happy with mudflaps on my exj.

[01:11:16:12 – 01:11:16:22]
No.

[01:11:16:22 – 01:11:21:22]
And detour says there are no laws in Kentucky serious.

[01:11:23:29 – 01:11:26:18]
Better watch better watch your 14 year old daughters

[01:11:30:09 – 01:11:31:04]
Crazy.

[01:11:31:04 – 01:11:32:24]
buggy with anything

[01:11:32:24 – 01:11:36:13]
Kentucky where they marry their sisters and stuff.

[01:11:37:18 – 01:11:44:24]
Cousin’s on it. I’m telling you the only reason why Mark detours move to Kentucky was he wanted to say he lives in ky.

[01:11:46:07 – 01:11:51:09]
He

[01:11:51:09 – 01:11:58:05]
wrote that I wrote that wrote that with my little head. Oh, very good.

[01:11:59:20 – 01:12:00:07]
Very good.

[01:12:03:18 – 01:12:09:10]
Look at that detours he’s trying to he’s trying to retaliate and chat but he says you are all removed.

[01:12:10:09 – 01:12:12:07]
Yeah,

[01:12:12:07 – 01:12:14:04]
he got a scar if he can call you I’ll get y’all jump off.

[01:12:14:04 – 01:12:40:19]
All right, guys, it’s been a lot of fun. We’re 21 minutes over time. It’s I figured it was it was just to you guys hadn’t been on long enough. It was just too much fun. So we’ll have to get you guys on earlier next time. So I’m gonna wrap it up. Thank you very much for calling in Wayne. Good luck over there. Keep the windows rolled up. You keep the mud out, you know, three hours cleaning time. That’s pretty rough.

[01:12:42:21 – 01:12:45:02]
Really not a problem. Thanks. I’ll catch you later.

[01:12:45:02 – 01:13:00:26]
Hey, you too, Wayne. By the way, which we’re talking about all the mud in the interior on that video when I sprayed everybody with the mud. When I dropped off that ledge. I’ve got probably my back door panels, you can’t tell what color they are all the mud on them. So yeah, I kind of understand that.

[01:13:00:26 – 01:13:04:17]
You know, I have the doors and water blasts on them, but I’m not telling anyone

[01:13:05:20 – 01:13:08:23]
but mud is fine. I like I like mud. It’s just a real

[01:13:08:23 – 01:13:09:20]
to clean it off.

[01:13:11:23 – 01:13:14:23]
We’re just leave it on there for the next time you go wheeling. It don’t

[01:13:14:23 – 01:13:18:26]
true. Good people behind you are usually dodging as it’s drying and falling off.

[01:13:18:26 – 01:13:25:09]
All right, wait. Good afternoon, Wayne. Good night, Tony.

[01:13:26:11 – 01:13:30:18]
Thanks so much, guys. You have a good night. Bye. Talk to you all later. Bye
