Just some pictures of my alternator for my 2009 Ford Escape that Eric made me. He said its only 1 of 2 made. But after installing it found out the UPS must of dropped it
in shipping cause after running it the internal fan is rubbing the inside of the case and throwing shaveings all over the place. After calling Eric he said that it must of somehow shifted when it was dropped buy he said that he will get it fixed up and get it back to me asap. 
So it was shipped back to Eric this morning.

What are these worth anymore gentlemen? These are mine that came with the truck I bought.. the model99 zed amps above have already been sold... trying to sell the subs now.
Well since you got them with your truck any dollar amount you sell them for is profit
Thoses are the last XTR series before the DEI buyout i'd wouldn't sell them for no less than $50 each in very good shape but thats just me. If I had the cash i'd buy them to run on my orion 275rhcca

Well after a long time looking/comparing I finally ditched my crossfire vr4000d and bought a Sundown Audio saz-3500d
. I needed something that I could run my Tc sounds axis subs that have the RETARDED quad 1.2ohm coils (instead of 1ohm coils) and after reading alot of posts of people running the 3500s below 1ohm and with little to know complaints I had to have one. I hooked it up yesterday to just 1 sub and WOW it was impressive now I just have to build a box for the pair and make a couple of videos. This Is going in my 09 Ford Escape XLT with Alpine cda-9887, 2 optima red tops up front and a Kinetik hc2400 in the back a stinger voltmeter with all 1/0 wire through out. I had my crossfire running (-1redtop) and my voltage was dropping pretty low at idle so I'm going to get either a DC or Mechman alt just don't know which one yet an the alt is damn near impossible to put in without taking alot of parts off to mount it. Thanks alot FORD

i would ask mechman about if your car is pcm controlled my mustang is and makes my voltage low even tho i have 2d3100 and 1d3400 under the hood, i mean i like my 270 just i kno im getting all my voltage i need i rarley drop to 12.9 on full tilt tho
Ya mine is pcm controlled and when I ordered my 270 form eric at meachman on friday he said that I wouldn't have any problems with it. I asked about doing a 14volt system but he said that it wont work cause of the pcm. Is your alt the large case 6G?

I believe epidurals aren't just for back pain.
And no they aren't used just for child birth.
But im sure your doctor knows best.
I ask about my options and he said my only option was the cortisone shot and then surgery as the tear wont heal its self due to the movement of the hip.

I used to get cortisone shots when I was younger for allergies. Every year the Dr would tell me that it would be the last time he'd give it to me as it can damage the cartilage in your joints and cause arthritis like Audible said.
Ya I was told that it inhibits the healing proses and just masks the pain its just a quick fix.

curious as to what u mean by "LOW" in your savings...
No need to tell us publicly but if it's expected to take around 9 months before you can return to work.... you might want to keep that in mind when you are spending money...
I try to keep a "just in case fund" as I do work 4-1/2 miles underground and bad things are going to happen its just a matter of when. So I put back as much as I can for well a time like this. I had a little over 3 grand saved this year and I have the disability insurance on our house and 3 car loans. I'm still getting paid as I have short term disability from work that lasts 52 weeks then it will turn over to long term plan. And the short term is 60% of my regular pay so I'm not strapped for cash. I just can't spend like I used to. Plus my wife is a payroll administrator for a big company so she makes pretty decent money. I'll just have to hold off on makeing big purchases for now I guess.

Well your on a forum that sells sundown in the store and ALOT of people have that amp so theirs you answer in my opinion.
Plus the sundown is linkable so if you want more power in the future you have that option as the hifonics isn't linkable.

the old-school look of the trike!That one was awesome. All of those bikes except for one was from the Rat's Hole Custom Bike Show. You entered your custome bike and then everybody voted for the best looking. Their was about 15 more bikes entered in that contest but my camera is messed up and wont let me load them.
take the memory card out of the camera and use a reader instead.... should stop that annoying issue....
Well that wont work my wife thought I had put them all on photobucket so she formated the card to see if it was bad or something
so now I lost ALL of my 317 pictures!!!!0 -
nice pictures man! that old school looking trike is bad ass!
If you click on your pictures on photobucket till they get to their max just right click the pic to get the url and it should post them bigger, that's how i post mine.
I tried that but screwed the trike up and made it smaller. For some reason it wont let me make it bigger than 320x240
and so i got pissed and closed it for now I'll try again later0 -
Sure just give me a mechman 270a alt for my escape and its yours

Cortisone is a steroid as stated it doesn't last long. It is only for pain and doesn't heal anything. Arthritis is a long term effect. I have had three in my left knee. I normally limp on it for a few days before I feel relief. They have some new stuff they use now but I'm nit sure of the name of it. I have my dr put me half asleep though bc it hurts like he'll. I tore my acl clean into was in a cast and then brace for 8 months
Ya I called it cortisone but it had a differen't weird name.

Perhaps an epidural would help?
Isn't that just for your back?

OK as the title says I was wondering if anyone has had a cortisone shot? I just had one today in my left hip as I have a liberal tear from falling down my stairs in April and was wondering how long it will last to keep the pain away? My doctor says it will only last around a month- 2 months max but its different for each person. Just trying to figure out if it was worth the 4.5" 18 gage needle that he shoved into my hip as it hurt worse than the MR arthrogram when they put the iodine into my hip to find the tear. Now I have heard of people getting several over time in their back/knees but my Dr said that I can only have one cause they have to do surgery to repair it within the next couple of months. The reason I ask is my Dr doesn't speak very good english and I hate asking him anything cause i just can't understand what the f**k hes saying. I am a underground coal miner an the company wont let me go back underground till I have the surgery and/or the pain goes away and the doctor wont do the surgery until he sees how/if the cortisone shot will work. I'm just getting pissed cause I've bin off since April 12th and my savings is starting to get low ( cause I keep buying amps and now a alternator
) and when I have the surgery he said it will be 5-7 months till I get released to go back to work 
. Just trying to figure out how long till the pain goes away? cause its bin over 3 hours and it still hurts like before I got the shot
Are their any side effects to the shot?
Thanks in advance, Joe

Yes I think I'll go with a Mechman. I have emailed them and Eric has returned all of my emails and the build time is alot faster then the others that i have emailed/looked at. As for Dc power they have yet to email me back and Excessive amperage can only make me a 250 amp unit thats alot more money then what the mechman 270a unit costs.
Also I see that Mechman has a limited time deal if you spend over $300 you get free shipping and a free t-shirt
Me likey free stuffDon't forget that the free shipping/free t-shirt is for a limited time. I don't want you to miss out if we run out of shirts (you can't have mine!) or have to pay shipping.

Don't worry I gots ur money
Just have to make some time to drive to the bank.

Pics of my Mechman 270 amp alternator
in Mechman High Output Alternators
Posted
Some pics from when I first installed it, had to modify the mounts a little bit cause of the ac compressor.
