marlin doesnt have 4.70 gears... or he might, but not on a relatively stock setup... his truck is all different

It was my understanding marlin had 2.28x4.7x4.7 and mike has 2.28x2.28x4.70

I thought they both had 2.28 cases so they could show people the difference between stock case, 4.70, and a dual ultimate.

Hey mike, how about posting a crawl video comparing the 4 different types of dual cases? Ill shoot the footage for you.

BigMike · « **Reply #9 on:** Jul 12, 2010, 07:41:45 AM »

Actually this is already in the works.

Few may remember this page: http://www.marlincrawler.com/video/index.php

I already have plans to revisit this idea in an updated and far better presentation.

Stay tuned soon,
BigMike

I thought it was the other way around. But I see mike didnt comment on it.

Sorry 'bout that. Caboose is correct regarding Marlin's truck and my truck's t/case gearing. The disadvantage with Marlin's setup is that he cannot display a stock dual case truck (2.28 x 2.28)

Quote from: Early on Jul 12, 2010, 11:08:08 AM

still don't know how to embed.

I thought I had posted a tutorial on this somewhere, but I can't seem to find it. It really needs to be explained, so here it is as short and sweet as possible:

1) Go to YouTube and load a video page, such as The Marlin Crawler Commercial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2D8_5lkFPx8
2) Click on the "<Embed>" button below the video and to the right
3) You can choose a size and border color if you wish. The 640-pixel wide option works best displayed on this forum IMHO
4) Right-click on the highlighted text in the text box and copy it to your computer's clipboard (Right Click > Copy)
5) Come back to our forum here, and post a reply to a thread.
a) If you are using the Quick Reply feature, type this code in:

Code: [Select]

[flash= b) If you are using the full reply feature, then click on the

Flash icon below the "B" Bold text icon. This will automatically insert the following code:

Code: [Select]

[flash=200,200][/flash]
From here you have to do a little bit of work. You'll need to Right-Click > Past the YouTube code you copied in step (4) into the reply text box here on the forum. The YouTube code will look something like this:

Code: [Select]

<object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2D8_5lkFPx8&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?color1=0x5d1719&amp;color2=0xcd311b"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/2D8_5lkFPx8&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?color1=0x5d1719&amp;color2=0xcd311b" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>

Now don't get overwhelmed. There is a lot going on here BUT we only need the first two functions. Here is the same code broken down so it's easier to see what is happening:

Code: [Select]

<object width="640" height="385">
 <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2D8_5lkFPx8&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?color1=0x5d1719&amp;color2=0xcd311b">
 </param>
 <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true">
 </param>
 <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always">
 </param>
 <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/2D8_5lkFPx8&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?color1=0x5d1719&amp;color2=0xcd311b" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385">
 </embed>
</object>

The fun part

First, trim the code so that it looks like this:

Code: [Select]

640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2D8_5lkFPx8&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?color1=0x5d1719&amp;color2=0xcd311b

Take a look carefully, I removed the first 15 characters and then removed all the characters near and after the "</param>" function. It's really not hard at all and it looks much cleaner at this point.

From here, I remove more code so that it looks like this:

Code: [Select]

640 385 http://www.youtube.com/v/2D8_5lkFPx8&hl=en_US&fs=1?color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b
Explained: The first number, 640, is the number of pixels wide. The 2nd number, 385, is the number of pixels tall. The URL address is the YouTube embeded link to play that specific video

Now simply add in the flash codes found in step 5 so that it looks like this:

Code: [Select]

[flash=640,385]http://www.youtube.com/v/2D8_5lkFPx8&hl=en_US&fs=1?color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b[/flash]
This will result in this:

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/v/2D8_5lkFPx8&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?color1=0x5d1719&amp;color2=0xcd311b" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="bbc_link bbc_flash_disabled new_win">http://www.youtube.com/v/2D8_5lkFPx8&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?color1=0x5d1719&amp;color2=0xcd311b</a>

So you only need the width, height, and the contents of the param "value" field, and that's it! Once you do this a couple of times, you'll find quicker ways to modify the text or even re-select only what you need from YouTube before copying the text to your computer's clipboard (in step 4 above).

Also, you can use this same flash embed feature for Photobucket videos, MySpace videos, Facebook videos, and even Flash games. All you need to identify is the width, height, and video URL for the forum here to understand what to play and at what pixel size to display it

For a Facebook example, here I am getting Roasted by Fresno's own Super Lucky Catz:

Original copied Embeded code from Facebook:

Code: [Select]

<object width="400" height="300" ><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="movie" value="http://www.facebook.com/v/384545678341" /><embed src="http://www.facebook.com/v/384545678341" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="400" height="300"></embed></object>

Here is what I trimmed it down to (just the dimensions and the param value):

Code: [Select]

[flash=400,300]http://www.facebook.com/v/384545678341[/flash]
And here is the output on the forum:

<a href="http://www.facebook.com/v/384545678341" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="bbc_link bbc_flash_disabled new_win">http://www.facebook.com/v/384545678341</a>

Enjoy

BigMike · « **Reply #15 on:** Jul 13, 2010, 08:08:37 AM »

Yeah, the search here is all messed up. I installed Sphinx Search on our server and made a lot of changes to the forum, but then found out its not compatible with this forum version (1.x branch). I had plans to upgrade the forum to the newest version (2.x branch) but there are other more important things for me to do here so the forum has been pushed back a bit. Once I get it updated the search will come alive baby!!

how about custom options allowing you to control the relevance, rather than the search feature determining what it feels is more relevant in your search? Like if you want your search to come up in chronological order, like if searching in the classifieds, where you really don't need posts popping up from 2003 before posts from 2010.

BigMike · « **Reply #17 on:** Jul 13, 2010, 02:04:44 PM »

I am not sure if there are any modules available to allow sorting of search results, but you may specify a minimum post age before placing a search using the Advanced Search form. I definitely think that would be a great feature to have, so I will take a look when the time comes to see about implementing it. Thanks!

if im right your crawl ratio with one case stock set up should be around 34.8 to 1 with 4.7 case it should be 71.8 to 1 thats a big difference

Yup, you are pretty much right on

The typical setup would consist of a 3.95:1 1st and a 4.11:1 R&P. This yields a 37.01:1 stock Vs. 76.30:1 Marlin Crawler. So yeah, that is a HUGE difference! A long time ago, before we changed the mindset of what "Slow" is, Peterson Magazine ran an article that said if your Crawl Ratio was over 70:1 then you can pretty much do anything
