that might not be such a good idea, picture WT on his knees crouched up under the truck  might have to get him some crack spackle

[WHITE_TRASH]

Yall are bad!  but I bet you knew that didnt you.   I have the trans swap almost done so Ill be taking pics tomorrow as its too late tonight sorry guys youll just have to wait!

[WHITE_TRASH]

Trans swap is done, tomorrow is all about my truck!  I guess I cant complain too badly Ive gotten a lot of parts from working on this truck

[WHITE_TRASH]

I dont think so...at least I hope not.  I got the tach fuel gauge and the temp gauge working.  Actually I cant take credit for it a buddy found a loose ground, guess I cant say that all my buddies are dumb! 

[Prismo]

Cool, for once an easy fix. 8)

[WHITE_TRASH]

Yep sure as heck was.  I just wish I had my camera Ive got a bunch of pics to take!  Ill also have to show yall the new truck.  85 x-cab 4x 22re auto yuck good thing I put a 5 speed in it tonight!  Itll be at Golendale so at least a couple of you will see it.

Are nice and dumb the same

[shawnb]

Here are some picture from tonight.

[WHITE_TRASH]

Hey who's the stud?  lol You guys wanna talk about booty fabbed shock mounts, these are it!!!  I just wanted to get something in there so I can do the floor tomorrow and maybe go camping for a night this weekend.  Thanks for stopping by Shawn, I think the natives might have gotten restless if I didnt throw them a bone.

[WHITE_TRASH]

 

Are nice and dumb the same

In referance to my dog, yes they are deffinately the same as I have an extremely nice dog. 

[WHITE_TRASH]

I just took the truck on its maiden voyage down the road.  Wow its like Mr. Toads wild ride!  DEATH WOBBLE!  I suppose it has something to do with everything being finger tight and my heinous sastor angle.  But at least it has 4wd now and sweet power steering.

[WHITE_TRASH]

I have the front suspension dialed in pretty good now.  I built the front pack as follows, main leaf through 3rd leaf is stock 94 rear.  Then 90 main leaf cut down and 81 overload on the bottom with 2 1/2 degree castor wedges on the bottom.  It seams to be pretty good compared to what it was the other day.  The new combination added about 2 inches of lift so its still pretty low, especially with 38's.  I need to stiffen up the rear a bunch as with the spring inboarded they try and do most of the work.

[Prismo]

I am using the same 2.5 degree shims on mine. Drives good.






Those shock mounts are kinda booty fab, hope they hold up

[WHITE_TRASH]

Kinda?  Holl no they are certified booty fabrication!  I doubt they will hold up to much but they got the truck on the road for now.  Ill build some killer hoops this week.

[WHITE_TRASH]

Not a butt head.  More like a crack head!

[shawnb]

WT you must be gone for the weekend. I had a bad one  and need a door  .

[yotaboy79]

you didnt keep the rubber side down did ya

[WHITE_TRASH]

  Alright!  Now that is some nice carnage!  Bring it by tomorrow, Ill be here all day so if I dont answer no worries Ill be here.  I just so happen to have that piece of glass too    Well I guess now itll be easy to adjust your door handle since itll be on the shop floor!

PS bring your camera I made some good progress.  I built the tunnel, damn its killer made it out of 3 pieces of sheet metal.  I also put the seats in to test the fit with the tunnel.  No problem they actually fit pretty well.


PS2 I hope the wifey wasnt with you, I know she woulda kicked the crap outta you if she was.

[WHITE_TRASH]

you didnt keep the rubber side down did ya

He has a habit of laying it on that side.  Any time it goes its always on the passenger side hell it wasnt straight even before this trip.  But I kinda like the look now.

[shawnb]

I was rubber side down, almost wasn't on the crack again (funny rocks).
They told me the jeep trail was tight, but I did not think it was that tight. Had a tree on the front bumper DS,and a few others behind me and was trying to go between two. When I pushed into on the one on the front driver side it shoved me to up and to the right. Bringing the tree into my fender and door.  :.order:
This was also the first time my wife and boy have ridden in the truck on a trail ride.  And yes the window was up.   I need to make a nascar net on that side to keep the branches out and allow us to have the window down.   But then again I don't think she is going again   

I took this picture two hours befor the event. He was in the same position when the glass broke but the sun block on the car seat was pulled over him.

[yotaboy79]

its ok i have a bad habbit of tipping it on the passenger side to but its always in mud or sand so the damage isnt real bad

[WHITE_TRASH]

Wow you really dont think shes going with you again?  Thats funny that she wanted to go so bad but now she wont go again.  We'll have to get her back on the trail one of these days.  Glad to her the kid didnt get glassified.  check your pm's

[shawnb]

She say that she will go if I by an RV so she and mason can stay in it while I wheel. Says the'll watch movies and do crafts stuff. Your dad sell his cheep :-)

[brainlessfool]

she want's a Retirerment Villa?  anrt you guys a bit young for that? 

[Prismo]

she want's a Retirerment Villa?  anrt you guys a bit young for that? 

I think she just wants to retire from Shawn's driving

[WHITE_TRASH]

I think your right Prism, from the sounds of it I dont think she'll ride with him farther than the parking lots of the trailheads anymore!  Thank god I was here working on the truck instead of w/ him having to listen to her!  I took pics w/ Shawns camera but they are TOO BIG!!  If I shrink them to the max size to load here they are too small to see!  Hopefully I get my camera back tomorrow, maybe Ill take some flex pics for you guys...IF your good. 

[WHITE_TRASH]

Not a flex pic but it is a pic of progress.  Ill put the shifters in today and take some flex shots for ya.

[brainlessfool]

man that tunnel looks a lot better than the one you put on the 81 

[KYOTA]

WT, you got a rubber t-case boot and base like this for an 83? 

[WHITE_TRASH]

Yeh I have half of that.  The front boot was trashed so I cut the rear part of it away from the front.  I was gonna use it on this truck but I have another for it.  If you want it Ill bring it to Goldendale.
