Gonna be a while.  Hoping to start on it next winter. We'll see. Lots of expenses surfacing for me lately setting me behind.

Tow rig got more love. 


Tonight Tacoma got a new tcase mount, finally a solid one.

Looks like a good time! How did the rig do being so low? Looks like you just walked everything  :beerchug:

Looks like a great time and nice weather. Cant even tell that lions back was ever driven on.

Really well.  I drag belly all over the place. I'd like to gain more clearance underneath.   Wonder if there's a good way for me to carve out my tunnel to gain a few inches. Then this truck would be very very capable.

It was absolutely fantastic...I'm thinking of trying to plan a few days in Moab after mcr!

While you are using that metabo, cut up a box and send me that front bumper.

I might make a new front

rapier46

Some progress on the flatbelly stuff.   Decided not to go completely flat. Driveline angles would have been difficult to deal with





But this is much better



Got a solid start on patching up the interior tonight too.  I won't show you that because it's like a war zone in there.  :flamer:

But she looks cute

rapier46

Not done but the belly is up a few inches

I don't like these switches but it may be only temporary.  But it fit right in one of my extra 12volt outlets I've never used. So I cut out the back and glued it in.  Actually turned out not bad.

Not bad at all!
Now chop that IFS off and strait axle that thing.

SqWADoosh [04:19 PM]: *sigh* I guess Chris is right and I just need to wait until I'm in a place where I have a tow rig and trailer before I get this caliber of truck
Mudder [08:28 PM]:   not try to be a jerk, but are you serious bestgen?
Prismo [06:11 PM]:   Done, time to relax or as Bestgen says....FREEDOM!
HogCanyonHopper [06:54 PM]:   I like my little rod. it gets the job done
H8PVMNT [03:30 PM]: I can go both ways.

She bang!

SCary thing is I have no clue who the axle or this broke.  There was no bang , snap, or nothing.  I heard nothing
