First: Removed the splitter guards, shortly followed by debadging. Then better tires and (I think) nicer wheels. After that, tinted and driven.

Wiping on solves one issue. And if you find one tire manufacturer that isn't against tire goop, I'm willing to change my view on how the goop affects the chemicals built into the tires. A little. Maybe. Actually, not driving on them can kill them faster than driving, as those chemicals won't...

Does anyone know the official breakover angle of a Hellcat? I haven't been able to find it, and don't know if I should trust my own 10 degree measurement. Need to figure out how much the ramp door needs to be raised off the ground for the bottom of the car to clear.

Maybe it didn't have a protector on the right side, and would've been just fine if it had it?

If you helped beautify the world for the cost of a T-shirt, it was well worth it.

I'm trying to get down to 15, or so, which is why I should sell the Super Seven, Bugeye, and a couple of MGBs. Since I don't get to drive all that much, spreading it between several vehicles makes it worse - to the point that I had to put StaBil in my "daily driver".

They can be driven slowly?!? Please, don't let my girlfriend know that. Anyway, I won't be looking at any more Challengers, Eric, two is plenty for us. Plus, we're out of garage space now. I need to sell several cars and not just for that reason. But when you do get up here, you can get some...

Interestingly enough, yesterday I commented on how much quieter the Redeye is than my Hellcat, as my girlfriend came home from shopping. She claims it just purrs, and doesn't need to be loud and obnoxious since it's quicker and faster than mine. I have yet to drive it after it got broken in...

Got started on figuring out which ones I'd need. Meeting the 10% approach angle requirement is easy, but I need to find the breakover angle for a 'Cat so I know how high the ramps must lift the door on the trailer. Then, checking and measuring angles got me completely sidetracked, so now I'm...

Can't speak for cell phones, but on my computer there's a smiley face to the right of the "Like" symbol. Hit the smiley and you should get all kinds of options.

Off subject, but hey, we're talking trailers here. I'm awfully tempted to buy a new 30-foot gooseneck, this time with a hydraulic dove tail. Wish I'd got it the first time, since the rest of the trailer would be identical, with disc brakes, air suspension, etc. So, would anyone here be...

On this "new and improved" site there actually is one.

They are farther behind on sending the notices out than I thought.

My pile of ignored recall notices (two Rams and the Challenger) will get thicker yet. Oh well.

I've had nightmares about ending up having to rely on a tow truck. Which is one reason I sometimes carry a full size spare. I only have two enclosed trailers that can accommodate a Challenger, but realistically I could likely use an open one, too, since my 'Cat doesn't get driven in inclement...

Please don't rely on a winch as a front "tie down". I've seen too may failures in the four wheeling world with that kind of setup.

If the angles are shallow enough, yes, I agree. And I sometimes add a "safety chain" to the rear of a vehicle. I just don't know what I'd attach it to on a Challenger. And I'd leave some slack in it.

We can, and I have the sleeves, lasso loops and/or axle straps to do it. Just never used them. What I don't like about that method is that no matter how nice and fuzzy the sleeve is, it can't be good for the paint. With chrome wheels I probably wouldn't mind. But maybe more importantly, while...

I suppose I could build my own and leave them at home. Here weight isn't an issue since I have machinery to lift things with. Then, wherever I'm going, I could most likely use Race Ramps for unloading. That would probably be the least unintelligent solution.

Yeah, using plywood should work, and worth a try. I'd prefer to build my own ramps, the main drawback being the weight of them. With a bad back and knees, and a hernia, I try not to lift any more than I have to, which is why the Race Ramps are tempting.
