BA dude, gotta love neat from work.

[swapped89 [OP]]

HAHA fo sho! I just traded a  friend 50' of some nice ass rope from work for two boxes of 3M orbital sand paper to sand my truck and paint it all one color. just gonna paint it some primer color. dark or light grey or somethin

[Early]

you should look at one of those hvlp (high volume low pressure) spray guns at the HF. Ive used them to spray a bike with. Paints super cheap that way. it will only cost you like 10-40 bucks for the gun and like 10-20 for paint. Ive got some red yellow and green sittin around if you wanna get all SE with it. haha

Haha Rasta colors. That probly would be a good investment. much better paint choices then rattle can too.

ya man I know a pretty sweet spot past waterfall. Big gravel area and grass for tents and a fire pit with rocks around it.

i know what spot your talking about but i dont think matt will be down for that thats like another 10 minutes away from crushers haha

[swapped89 [OP]]

  don't matter to me

I think I fixed my starter problem!!! I just replaced the contacts and sanded down the solenoid. I also cleaned a bunch of baterry conections/grounds. And Bada Bing, so far it's turned over everytime hard and fast
The old starters contacts and solenoids were toast! I'm surprised they even worked. I'll get a pic of the real bad one tomorrow.
I think all I got left to do is weld up the hoop I made to protect my ram and I'm good to go

[mattlosch]

Gonna be a fun weeken d!

[toyotanner]

don't matter to me

i was just saying cause matt wanted to camp closer to crushers and we were about 15 mins away and that spot you were talking about is about another 10 mins away.

hey casey still has your spare too haha its been sitting in our garage. if you need it let me know and we can meet up or something otherwise i'm sure we'll be wheelin same place and time one day and i'll just have to remember to bring it

[swapped89 [OP]]

Right on. I was wondering if he still had it. Are you two commin to browns camp(tanner and Casey)? Wanna just bring it then? It won't do me much good now that I'm runnin 37s. But it migh help someone get back to camp.

P.S. so far today my starter is still kickin hard  Now i wont have to worry so much about killin it in the rocks.

[mattlosch]

I finished the armor for my ram tonight. It's pretty cool and beef as
I bent some 1.75"x.120 tube cut it and sleeved it with some 1.5x.120. Kinda just wanted to practice some rosett welds. Here's some pics. I clear coated the ram armor after scotch brighting it

thanks I appreciate it. Now I just gotta set the front end on a rock and see how it holds up
ya, the diff armor might be a lil crooked, but it's solid and doesn't really do much. Haha other than that I don't see anything wrong with it

[91 ex-cab]

It look :thumbs:s ten times straighter than mine

[swapped89 [OP]]

[86rustbucket]

nice pics man,   looks like fun

[91 ex-cab]

Truck looks sick are you gonna shoot it all one color or do that wrap you were talking about?

[swapped89 [OP]]

Thanks 86 rustbucket.

95 in on the fence about just spraying it one color or payin 200$ for a wrap. I'm leanin towards paint cause I'm always in tight trails scratching body panels on rocks and what not. I think if the wrap catches a rock it would rip big holes in it.
If I spray it. It'll just be primer grey. Some easy paint like duplicolor or somethin
