Well hes coming back down tomorrow apparently..

Hes bringing some metal he picked up from work i think.  And we are going to start planning on what to do with his 92'.   

Im sure we can nab those springs and get your truck DONE...  Then maybe work on his soon.

Thomas P

cool, i wonder if we can build you that box also, and then maybe do some work on the wifes rig, but we need those springs!!!

Night thomas,  keep me posted on the situation.

We could swap those diffs into the 1st gen, wouldn't take that long.  IT would be a good time to rebuild that front axle if needed too.

Man Thomas i thought i had a trailer lined up but it fell through. Still lookin I would hate if i ended up having to drive all the way to MCR8 and back. I still haven't had a chance to look at my rear diff but if the gears are shot I have another set. I still have a lot to do. I'm getting pretty stoked about the round up though. Keep your  :crossed: about a trailer.

The hydro assist, what didnt happen to the hydro..... It had a slow leak while parked and I had to fix the leak, fill it and re-bleed it before I left, then I blew a high pressure line while coming out of Morris, and after that the top center part of my box where the adjusment bolt is, started leaking hardcore, and there is no way of fixing it without taking the box out because there is so much crap in the way. So I am glad I brought a gallon of ATF with me! I hav to remove the box and turn my elbow out of the way so I can tighten that bolt, and I need to buy another pressure line

thanks for the pics mike, we should show the hydro assist too......... still need to tweak the HA system, and lower my truck, then change all fluids, after that i may do some paint  prep, but i doubt i will get any paint on by MCR

looks good mike RUN THEM 42s!

I did...  To work and back on monday...

Long story short..     we were too tired from huffing bed liner for hours and applying it to the truck to want to swap those 42's out at 12am on sunday night..


Thomas, i don't have any pics of the hydro assist at the moment, i can snap a few when we work on it tonight.  Once we get that other slider on, im sure we could get a few more things done on the truck as well.  Lowering it, and maybe fix the hydro tonight as well, flush the fluids.

Then what does that leave us with?  Rock lights, cb fixing, painting it (or at least prep), basically just little :pokinit: afterward?
