not building another truck, rebuilding this pile.  Pat's front tube work will be going on this along with my old flatbed hopefully.  and if i have the money i will be linking the rear with coil-overs.  i also NEED to rebuild the motor and go through the whole wiring of this truck.  i need to get rid of the old wiring harness and just use the new one for the efi.  get rid of one of the ignitions.

Moonrocks is about 20-30 minutes N of Reno

Coming in from Sac. take 80 East into Reno to 445 North (Pyramid Lake hwy). Follow 445 North to Winnemucca Ranch Rd. left on WMR. Follow WMR  all the way out till pavement ends and start looking for the only green anywhere on your left. The road up to Moonrocks is the next left afture the green pasture.

I'm jealous, I want to go! I should just store my runner down there so I can fly down for the weekend trips, no long driving.

weekend was awesome.  no breakage for me.  my front driveline pulled out 4 times saturday which was stupid.  wierd that it didn't pull out on fordyce last week.  flopped it a couple times but drove out of them.  moderatly bent my passenger chevy spring.  mopst of the crazy stuff happened at night so i didn't take any pics with my camera, it sucks at night pictures.  still have to download the pics.

Oh man that trip was a lot of fun. Met some more really cool people. The 3 hour drive sucked im my rig but was worth it. Next time im towing it. All the way home my driveshaft was rubbing the horescaller crossmember, bent the budbuilt transfercase skidplate, i was surprised. So its going flatbelly this winter. I got some sweet video of kent in the sammi and some good pictures. I will post them up later

ya, that is my front driveline stuck on my shackle bolt.  i don't know how it did it but it was stuck good.  We hooked up a strap to the bottom of the thirmember and had a truck pull it it.  it puleld the pinion down and freed the driveline.  it sucked to say the least.  i think i broke the front u-joint.
