The only advantage is the number of parts that I have sitting in my garage already lol. All I'd need is the housing, studs for the diff and new 80 balls. But again, I think at that point, it'll go in another build. Unless I can convince my wife...

So, just realized I had never followed up with an answer to how I fixed my problem. I’ll try to keep this short. Although I had already replaced the solenoids, I swapped out a new set just to be 100% sure it wasn’t them. Every time the truck...

If you’re locked already. Lower gears RCV 300m 30 spline axles ARP hardware Truss the front housing and add knuckle braces. If you need more then that then it’s time for a Buggy.

Exactly this. I have all of these and catch myself imagining it's going to be time for a RuffStuff front 9.5 housing with 80 balls to swap in, but really at that point, the 80 is no longer the chassis and I'd be better off building a stretched...

I put the LX 450 to work with the trailer this weekend while enjoying some serious model railroading. I transported 5 Freemo modules over to Cornfield 10 in McLean, IL while assisting my friends of the Illini Railroad Club. The IRC is the...

I think we scared them all. Then again, most of the personalities I've come accross up there aren't huge talkers nor posters. Regardless, it'll be a good time for everyone

Old wheeling/NorCal/Rubithon/desert friends you run into when doing desert-rat shït… A nice dinner-night with my good, old friend Andy on North Titus Canyon Rd @Cruiserdrew And another great night with my friend Nial at Saline Valley Warm...

Do it, it's incredibly easy. Welding machines make is super easy to setup. When I got started I took a welding class at a local forge, was like $75 for an hour and a half of hands on training, learning techniques etc. Bought a welder, welded some...

Sound Deadening the chopped LC.

little bit of this, little bit of that. updated these markers to international dual bulb style. gets much better turn signal exposure for clowns trying to crash into you.

Running 65-70mph

It appears draining the fuel bowls and flushing may have done the trick. They are going to press on…. Well other than the I think @gonzopancho batteries in the PowerStroke just died…click

Thanks all! "The weather is here, wish you were beautiful!"

The only mod that really matters /s The previous owner had 37’s, and to be quite honest, 33’s looked dumb with this lift.

Got the gauges wired up! Now just need to finish the turbo install and get this thing boosting. Also finished up the exhaust. Still need to heat wrap it once it’s tested for leaks.

Next up was the sway bar. This was kind of a nightmare. I borrowed a mag drill from an acquaintance which made one side a breese. Issue 1. I started running into issues because drilling through both walls of the frame and keeping the holes...

The before and after is pretty telling as to why I was a having bump steer. Idk what I was thinking.

I've trimmed a lot. If it needs more, I'll trim some more. It's only metal:rofl: But yes, it definitely feels more numb up front, and the hydro assist exagerates that a bit. I'll get used to it eventually

Yes! Looks like you have a little more room to trim if needed. Once you get use to the less feedback from the front, you'll love the three link. So much free'r and plush, now you have me looking at coilovers and bumps again.. Late spring snow...

Got my 3 link all sorted finally. Eventually there won’t be any fenders left of I keep trimming 😂

Very sorry to hear this. If my schedule allows I would like to attend.

I would do the Wagon Run . Trails ? there is only 1

Life is short, friends. Onward.

Afton Canyon is still one of my favorite places in all of the desert. Can't wait to see more!
