you might be done soon
We'll see how it goes. No promises, but I'd like to be rolling pretty soon. I need to have the crossmember, gas tank, radiator, and battery in before we think about rolling. Then brakes (kind of important...) need to happen...Got a lot of stuff to do, but we're eating an elephant here - one bite at a time
I haven't taken the weekend off, I promise. I went to Memphis today to get the other tires - got a deal on 4 like-new 38.5 SXs, and one 75% 38.5 SX. I'll mount 'em up soon. I'm going to get an F-150 rear tank tomorrow. Hopefully it's what I want. I'll post up when I know more.
And you didn't drop in to say hi?
I didn't think I was close to you. How close was I? Crud... I'm sorry, Michael. I feel bad now...
Welp, the time has come for Snoop to go home, and I've honestly gotten none of the aforementioned complete. Time's up, so he's got to go as is. I'm thinking I at least need brakes and steering, so I'll work on that. If not, we'll just roll with the punches Wish things were different, but this is how it goes
Mabye now youll see the dog more often and actually make some progress. 4 months till I see ya in september, and ya had better be driving this Pregnant dog!
Love your build. Im partial to the 4 runner
I will be making a big appearance soon, You'll See.
You moving it back to Hot Springs for the summer? That's close enough that some of us could come and stand around and watch you work. You gotta get this thing ready for our big event in September, you already missed last years!
and eat
Just a little update...I was able to get the Dogg home and situated. Trailer shook and wanted to throw me off the rode all night. I left Fayetteville around 9:30 and made it to Hot Springs around 2:30 AM I think I loaded the trailer down with too much stuff for the truck to handle, which is why it was so tough to tow. Top speed was 55 MPH.I went wheeling this weekend, and man was it a good time. I went with a friend who just built up a Jeep, and he definitely isn't used to a manual and crawlin'. First hill we came to was almost a roll. I think I myself... Ended up breaking a u-joint and rounding the ears on the stub, so we spent a couple hours getting that fixed. Spent a couple more hours on the trail, then he went home. I hung out with the 'Yota guys that night. Then Sunday morning, I went out with Dennis, Mark, and some other 'Yotas. I felt sorry for the Jeep on 42s that broke a chromoly stub in his 44 front on an obstacle Dennis crawled up Poor Jeeps... Really, I did feel sorry for him, cuz it was a nice Jeep.I plan to be in Hot Springs for good after this weekend. I'm looking at little MIGs, and I'm hoping to get one as soon as I work a week and am able to pay it off. Maybe I can get a loan from the parents Hope you all had a wonderful and safe Memorial weekend. Remember the real reason for the Holiday
