Hey your in New Milford, no kidding.  Have you found anywhere to wheel out there yet.  I'm just starting to get the tracker going, but during the summer I see a bunch of the rigs out in the D&D by the Big Y covered in Mud, they've got to be going somewhere.

As for the tool, are you referring to an EDM?  Figured only a machine shop would have access to one.  But yeah, let me know, even if I need take it apart and bring it by the shop that would be great.  Thanks!   

yeah i got the burgundy lsi that was sittin at J&J auto at the corner of railroad street and bridge street. bought it a few weeks ago. as far as places to wheel and the people youve seen lol, there most likely people i know. we often go muddin behind walmart in the sand pits, they dont bother us much back there. the entrance is right across the street from party depot. we used to go to the quarry on route 7 towards gaylordsville, till some one bought it and gated it. theres the powerlines in gaylordsville, but its not uncommmon to get busted there. ive heard of a place in sherman/new milford where there supposedly a bunch of trails that are pretty good. pretty much we just go wherever we see a decent area that is away from where we will get caught. theres also nepaug state forest in canton ive heard mixed reviews about.
as far as your broken thread goes the best way to remove it would be to bring it to a shop and have put it on a miller and run a carbide drill or end mill through it. the shop he works at isnt a place to bring it though, but we have a mill and a lathe in our basement and says that he can do it if youed like.
by the way if you ever seen a really loud 80s brownish cutlass around that was my old ride, this whole 80hp thing in the tracker is taking some geting used to,but im likin it.
