I have a break a work but i can't use that for another 2 months since i just got hired and am still on my probationary period. it was have been a lot easier but i do with what i got.

I just picked up some 3/16's-1/4 inch plate at work so can start working on my skid plate soon. i need to find one or 2 broken t-case mounts if anyone has any. the rubber mount, the part that bolts to the t-cases.

Hyena · « **Reply #788 on:** Oct 02, 2006, 11:32:52 AM »

brad, I've got this if you want it

modified chain drive mount, bolts up to gear drive now

I've got a good gear drive mount too, but I wanna sell that. If you can use that chain drive one, you can have it.

I work in Sacramento, so I can bring it up at least that far.

Hyena · « **Reply #791 on:** Oct 02, 2006, 05:20:03 PM »

thats ok, i think i am just going to cut up mine and use just that one. i don't need two after all.

Hyena · « **Reply #792 on:** Oct 08, 2006, 09:28:09 PM »

got some work done on the skid plate. not done yet but i will probably run this for next weekend and finish it afterward. you can see the drain plug just barely sticks down below the skidplate. but my package from Front Range should be here tomarrow so i will put on my low profile drain plus. it should be about level or sit just above the skidplate.

gotrocks · « **Reply #793 on:** Oct 09, 2006, 12:07:03 AM »

looks good brad. I'm sure it would look better in person. I have to say that I don't know how you get so much work done on your truck. I never find time to get stuff done.

Ramrod · « **Reply #794 on:** Oct 09, 2006, 05:44:36 AM »

ha, wonder where you got the idea to build it like that?

I have 3 days a week off

working 4-10's is pretty cool.

boggerunner · « **Reply #796 on:** Oct 09, 2006, 04:17:06 PM »

4 10's, thats not enough to pay my bills, i get 4 days off a month, and usually work 10-20 hrs a day, sometimes 30+ hr shifts, gotta love the oil field

Hyena · « **Reply #797 on:** Oct 09, 2006, 05:00:45 PM »

my last job i worked 7 days a week, it was killing me. no more of that.

my old flatbed is for sale, i am thinking of buying it back. what does everyone think i should do? i like the look of both the bed and the flatbed. if i buy the flatbed back then i will build a cage for it of course. but then i will want to link the rear too. damn i don't know what to do.

gotrocks · « **Reply #798 on:** Oct 09, 2006, 10:46:26 PM »

chop off the back and start to truggy it out. and get those 60's. You know its going to happen sometime or another so you might as well stop waisting time shooting a dead horse. Build it like you want it.

thats the kind of work week I want when I'm done with college. I'd rather work a few long days than a longer week and shorter days

toyhunter · « **Reply #802 on:** Oct 10, 2006, 09:07:51 PM »

what size shocks are you running in the rear my 4rnr is the same exact suspension setup

Hyena · « **Reply #803 on:** Oct 10, 2006, 09:13:42 PM »

i have Rancho 5012's. so 12 inches of travel. i have maybe 3 inches of uptravel in the shocks i would guess, and they do bottom out.

Hyena · « **Reply #804 on:** Oct 15, 2006, 09:20:43 PM »

so what do you guys like better?

dovetail

or flatbed?

Duffil · « **Reply #805 on:** Oct 15, 2006, 09:36:31 PM »

Flatbed 100%. It just needs lights in it, not wired on it.

boggerunner · « **Reply #806 on:** Oct 15, 2006, 09:51:07 PM »

Hyena · « **Reply #807 on:** Oct 15, 2006, 09:54:28 PM »

alright, thats good enough, guess i better go buy back my flatbed.

iNfErNaL · « **Reply #808 on:** Oct 15, 2006, 10:09:52 PM »
