Registered and very much looking forward to the great weekend ahead. Bringing my 11 year old son (his 1st Relic Run). He is currently into photography so I told him to pack the Nikon and take rig pics. He is hoping to get a shot in Toyota...
I’ve been collecting parts for the last year. Time to make it public and get it done after Relic Run. Picked up the last major Piece of the puzzle today.
5.3 with a 6l90
120k Silverado 5.3 with 799 heads. Last week it was in the truck...
I have notably been absent. With a very demanding 9 to 5++ job I’ve had to take a backseat in this year’s event planning. I have to say the collaborative effort of all of you has been outstanding!
I hope to see you all this weekend at some...
QUAD HEADLIGHT CONVERSION
Well fellas the round headlights are no more! Over the last few months I've been working on a quad headlight conversion. In my relentless pursuit of dumping money into this truck, I decided to try something different...
Made some progress today. also ordered new body mount bushings, and some lizard skin products. going to lay down some sound deadening, then heat control, then cover it with some raptor liner as a top coat on the underside.
Got back towards savannah and heard quite the bearing whinning noise from the transmission/transfer case, limped it back and pulled it apart the next weekend to figure out what was up, pulling the transmission in the barracks parking lot was not...
After a year or so of training and loads of other BS i figured out i was getting station in Savannah, So during Christmas break i came back up to finish her up and bring her home with me, Finished installed the fuel cell, buttoning up some...
Parts and coil overs came in and got everything tacked in and under the truck and started to mock up everything for coilovers. I was able to get the suspension cycled and flexed out before i had to head out back to work. Big thanks to my Dad...
Just annotating add-ons to the LC. Had a moment while the sun is setting to put on @LandCruiserPhil rear heavy duty swaybar links, put the rear swaybar on, with Wit'sEnd swaybar bushing caps.
I'm going to stick with the stock swaybar for this...
Come on man. Jump the gun. Get emotional.
Overreact and sell it cheap. I’m free this weekend :)
Sucks to hear it though. Agree 15k is strong in that shape. I’m sure there are a few silent interested parties. I’m looking as well.
I love cutting things.
Glued in the steel, cut the hole, cut and formed the new panel, and slid it in between the sheets. @Hokie LX had a brilliant idea of making this a little mini diorama around the sign, so that's definitely happening.
Have been on a few trips with the motel since June. Good times as always.
New truck for @Hokie LX
New led sign for the motel. Think I'll stick it in one of the windows inside so you can see it from outside.
I've recently developed the...
Mostly finished product for the motel sign. I'm stoked with how it has come out.
Please ignore the caulk ooze. Til that a new tube of caulk can go bad in less than a year.
Brakes wired, hub+drumset installed and preload set, axles located and torqued, wheels on, and finally, trailer on the ground. Not as low as I remember it, and I think it's gonna be just about right for the car. Easier to step into and out of as...
Unfortunately I’ll be on the road this year. Was really trying to make it but my buddy Sargy is getting married the same weekend…
I’ll make it another year. I did donate a box of goodies to the raffle though! I’ll be there in spirit!
