Enjoying the nice days here. Had my sons and a friend help me mount roof rack on van. Put it up without the wood and it still took a bit. This was made strictly from measuring everything several times. There was no chance to check fit before...
Well the first truck popped my cherry and I was very uneasy. So worried I forgot to hit record and missed him. He was the pole winner and went on to get first. When we went to mile 280 to see them again we only just got there in time to hop out...
That road we started on does not look as rutted in the video. Where the Trophy trucks were doing 80 mph, we couldn't go faster than 10-15mph or I would rearrange all the gear in the back of the pig.
So Baja was awesome. The whole experience was fun. The race and seeing these trucks jam by us at 80 mph on a road couldn't go faster than 10 or 15. I'm putting together a video and will post later.
Side note. There was 5 trucks in our group. 2...
On Sunday we actually worked on the redneck trailer. Got it completely stripped down and ready for blasting. The only bits left is to take the doors apart. I have to wait a few weeks before I can get back on it, but we are going to weld in some...
“I hear that 2F a-comin’,
It’s comin’ ‘round the bend,
It ain’t had the valves adjusted since I don’t know when,
Driver’s dropped it into third, foot mashed to the floor,
Eyes watering from exhaust fumes, bound for Pig Party 2024….”
So, I just received a pretty cool item from @nuclearlemon that I am going to bring to the Pig Party and find a way/reason to raffle it off to someone at the party;)

I never got the hunting and fishing bug. My brother and dad are crazy about fishing. They do annual trips to Mexico to fish. Most of my extended family do both. I just cant get into any of it. Give me a Pig and and a mountainous destination and I...
Took me all week but I whipped that 24" of wire and my brake light is good to go.
During that week, Steve was repairing my daily. New water pump on my 3.5 Ecoboost. If ya know, ya know. Lots of new parts in there now
A lot of you seem to be in the wiring phase of your $5k budget builds. A word of advice for yall. Make sure you are getting quality wire. I dont have a resource or suggestion but dont buy what I bought. It is rotting from the core and little BS...
