I just wanted to say I like your truck.

[Yoat Goat]

thanks man.  Heres a badass action shot in the soup kitchen at mcr6

I like the way you did the tube on the rear fenders!

[Ramrod]

thanks heres a couple more pics I just got off my friends computer

leaving keys in truck at party with big dirt pile = truck stuck on big dirtpile-


and one from cadillac hill, i dont know when exactly but pretty sick I thought-

[Ramrod]

new R & P on the way for the front....might get this thing out for next weekend

[Doof]

how did you like the genuine gears?

r&p set up

somebody implied you were running those

[Ramrod]

thats what I had in my old truck.  There cheap work fine but eventually they will break but then you get a replacement so its your call.  This truck has yukons but they broke also and they were treated by longfield so....

[Doof]

cheap + lifetime warrenty= good deal
yukon + heat treated + carnage = idk

[Ramrod]

yep pretty much your call, im trying yukon one more time.  they held up pretty good but not as good as i hoped

[Doof]

thats a bummer.... thanks for the info on those gears

[twistedtoy92]

lookin very very nice!

[porkchop]

Man that is one killer rig!

[Ramrod]

thanks, im kinda bored right now so I edited the first post on this truck and added all the specs on the whole truck that I could think of. Theres probably more though

[kiyul4130]

your tires ever come yet?

[Ramrod]

nope

[slabcs]

That's not right

[skipnrocks]

nope

How long have you been waiting now?  And do you know what seems to be the holdup?

[Ramrod]

i think I ordered them in the middle of october, they are supposed to be on a national backorder and there are none in stock anywhere.  They fucked me and told me it would be 10 days max so i didnt care and if I wanted I could have just bought them from somewhere else but now the deal is over and unless I wanna pay full price for them or some other tire I just have to wait it out.  Last time I talked to them I cussed the guy out for about 15 minutes and made a fool of him and he said they would be here by the end of nov.  maybe ill roust him up tomorrow and talk some more .  I tried to get a set of some other kind of tire but they wouldnt do it without me paying more

People like that piss me off,  I have had that happen too many times  and it kills me... or makes me want to kill them, take your pick
