    Diesel condiitioner and anti-gel

    Always have used Howes, so don't know how my 2005 LLY would run without it?? At $350-$400 per injector, good to keep them clean. What year are you looking at?

    ever seen a polaris fly??

    Thanks Capt, I'm just slow on the draw today I guess. :d You and JoHNI are very correct. If you see a "searching ?? Helicopter", It really does help us out if you "point" toward the Injury, or broke down sled or ?? , if you know where something is happening in the Bowl. We get vague...

    ever seen a polaris fly??

    I'm Glad that worked out OK, and the $600 sounds fair to do 2 lifts. My biggest fear is to drop a $15,000 + sled, as we don't carry hook insurance. Just a basic $0.50 per Lb, "....here's $300 for your sled, sorry Man..." :oops: :mad:

    ever seen a polaris fly??

    Not sure of that Slinging set-up, never ever done that myself? The problem with the rear bumber is that when it lets go, the line slingshots up into the Heli-blades AND the sled goes for a fatal thud ( seconds before the Heli does the same???). We always use the 3 point setup, a strap around...

    Leveling kit 2010 GMC 2500HD

    Hey Jaredszakacs, I'm actually interested in lowering my 2005 Duramax. I bought it 18months ago, with an approx 3" lift, but it's now rolling on 265's Vs the 285's it came (to me) with. The reasons, I just replaced the upper ball joints at 91,000 Km, not sure if it's lift related, or the...

    CUSO, All of the answers are already here in this thread. The Rescuers required the sleds be moved to continue the search. They had no way of knowing that every one was accounted for, they had to continue the search. can you imagine the fallout, IF they quit searching and then realized that...

    Just read Modmans post, not many aircraft are at $1,000/Hr anymore. A bell 212 (or Bell 205) is about $3,500/Hr. 6 were there, most probably flew 2-3 hrs each = approx $65,000 A Bell 407 is about $2,400/Hr. 3 were there and flew about 2 Hrs each = $28,000 An Astar 350 is about 2,400/Hr...
