Subject: Re: Closed BLM Land being abused by OHVs
The state of AZ, all states for that matter, should institute an OHV
responsibility portion into their state drivers liscensing tests.
Ensuring new drivers are aware of State permit Requirements and to
tread lighlty. It would definiely get the word out to everyone as you
would have to study this portion as well as their may be test
questions regarding it. Too bad the legislators don't think of the
simple things....

Also, something else to consider, you can save any Word document as
an HTML file too if you have one of the later versions of Microsoft
Word. It makes things real easy.
If you're going to just be doing a simple web page (text and
pictures - without adding any sort of flashy animations or sounds or
whatnot) your best bet might be to learn the HTML tags and just
compose with a text editor - the old fashioned way. Search the web -
there are plenty of resources out there that explain HTML (the basic
stuff is really easy). Or, better yet, do a "view --> source" from
Netscape or IE Explorer on any web page and try and figure it out for
yourself as to what's going on yourself (it's a little easier if you
have some basic understanding).
The problem with many Web page designer software packages are that
they tend to add a lot of unecessary tags which can really screw up
your page when viewd with some browsers.

Steve Sample&! nbsp;mentioned that they got stopped by the sheriff when they were up at Florence Junction area for not having State Land Use Permits. When I picked mine up here in Tucson they said they were very strict in that area about the permits.
You can get one at the State Land Office here in Tucson at:
233 N Main Ave (just north of down town) Phone #628-5480. The office is in one of the houses on the west side of Main.
The cost is $20 for a family and a little less for a single.
I think that your hunting license is also good for access to State Land.

For all you guys that thought the 9012's were the biggest (32.25") Ranchos
you could get, I was down at 4 Wheelers today and Barry informed me that
Rancho has a 36" shock (about 21" compressed).
I was sweating the 9012's because as my project is sitting now there is 28"
from upper to lower shock mount sitting level (granted the shock mounts are
just tacked for now). The 9012's would have then given me only 4" droop, not
good.

They used to be, Rancho just released the 9034 and 9036 (I think??)

The state of AZ, all states for that matter, should institute an OHV
responsibility portion into their state drivers liscensing tests.
Ensuring new drivers are aware of State permit Requirements and to
tread lighlty. It would definiely get the word out to everyone as you
would have to study this portion as well as their may be test
questions regarding it. Too bad the legislators don't think of the
simple things....

Also, something else to consider, you can save any Word document as
an HTML file too if you have one of the later versions of Microsoft
Word. It makes things real easy.
If you're going to just be doing a simple web page (text and
pictures - without adding any sort of flashy animations or sounds or
whatnot) your best bet might be to learn the HTML tags and just
compose with a text editor - the old fashioned way. Search the web -
there are plenty of resources out there that explain HTML (the basic
stuff is really easy). Or, better yet, do a "view --> source" from
Netscape or IE Explorer on any web page and try and figure it out for
yourself as to what's going on yourself (it's a little easier if you
have some basic understanding).
The problem with many Web page designer software packages are that
they tend to add a lot of unecessary tags which can really screw up
your page when viewd with some browsers.

You can get one at the State Land Office here in Tucson at:
233 N Main Ave (just north of down town) Phone #628-5480. The office is in one of the houses on the west side of Main.
The cost is $20 for a family and a little less for a single.
I think that your hunting license is also good for access to State Land.

Subject: Rancho 9000's, the biggest one
For all you guys that thought the 9012's were the biggest (32.25") Ranchos
you could get, I was down at 4 Wheelers today and Barry informed me that
Rancho has a 36" shock (about 21" compressed).
I was sweating the 9012's because as my project is sitting now there is 28"
from upper to lower shock mount sitting level (granted the shock mounts are
just tacked for now). The 9012's would have then given me only 4" droop, not
good.
Anyway just an FYI.

They used to be, Rancho just released the 9034 and 9036 (I think??)
which are both longer than the 9012. If I hadnt just got the 9012's
and built my shock mounts around them you bet your butt Id have 'em.
But Im happy with what I have.
