People make this website what it is! Thank u Oly_Fab:)

Hi everyone, I have been a member for several years now and have picked several members brains keeping the eight 1st gens my dad and I own running. I have been well prepared to handle a task or repair long before I ever lost knuckle skin thanks to some very knowledgeable members who constantly share information. I have also bought a lot of parts from honest, respectful, and friendly members who had what I either needed or wanted. Well this past week I was able to make a new friend. This one is way out on the West coast in WA. He not only read a thread I had started asking a question. He then chimed in and offered to help me with what I needed. He sent the parts quick and on his dime. I for one cant say thank you enough. I am dumbfounded on here all the time when I think our members cant get any better and I see it happen. Stu (Oly_Fab I am very grateful and if you have any questions on your RC conversion please don't hesitate to ask,

Mods, I know this isn't a technical thread but since we don't have the ability to leave members feedback for others to read I think its a great way to show other members (especially new ones) what this website is all about. At least in our own little 1st gen section

Nice post, man

How rare is it you get a compliment for a fellow member... Way to go !

I've helped people here over and over again, and all I ever get is a rock in my candy bag

I'd like to thank Oliver Foster and Mark Nixon for saving parts of these trucks for the rest of us to be able to keep riding on.....

I cant agree more NJTman. I have leaned on both on multiple occasions for information and parts. Way to often we don't say the things we need to.

Great idea for a thread!

I'd like to thank many of the members here for their advice. I'd really like to thank Ollie Foster for his knowledge and parts supply, Mark Knittle for his motivational assistance,Thrashing Cows for his insight, and NJTman for...well..being NJTman!

Looking forward to seeing some of you guys at Carlisle this year!

I'd like to thank Donald Dfrump, and Killary Plimpton for making us more nervous than a sheep in Jeffery Dahmer's back yard.


Way to go, crazy people !!
