It’s so good it’s boring.
I had a belt chirp at idle. It was just worn and slightly loose belts. It all snugged up nicely. No more noise.
Finally got my last new tire on the back and threw the jack back on to make it ride better. I had 200 lbs...
The 17” wheels came in primer and faded quickly. I liked the finish and color but it didn’t work out. I did a quick spruce up with rustoleum semi gloss and primer.
I’m trying to be fancy on a budget. I even used far less spray paint than I...
might not look like mutch at a casual glance.
But rust works silently in between the layers.
That area was the same on the other side. Although not quite as bad.
Ugh. Both with and without the driveshaft installed I’m getting less than 1 degree difference. Maybe the driveshaft shop sucked and I’m chasing my tail?
Thank you Tucker. Hard to believe we first met in 2016 when I was heading to the FJ Summit (with Mcguire). And that week was when the whole idea of doing the Solid Axle Summit originated. And as you said…”A lot of stuff has happened since...

Finally reading through this incredible build thread. I tend to live in the 60 section but have always wanted to build a 40. I was fortunate enough to be asked by the new owner to sort out a few things so it would be ready for his world in CO. I...
Started bleeding the brake master this evening. Will do the brakes tomorrow.
For this, I bought a short piece of brake line with fittings and cut it in half. I then bent each piece and attached a short piece of hose to each one.
I also had a bunch of intermittent fuse issues where power would go out if I wiggled the fuse. I ended up buying a new fuse block and cover from @Racer65 . Really nice stuff!
Alright, so we filmed the scene yesterday and time for the big unveiling. Thank you to everyone who played along.
Through the chain of introductions outlined above I was able to argue my way into using a PIKE trailer made in Kerrille, TX. by a...
I’d take the original frame mounts over fabricating them but your fab skills are most certainly better than mine. If you do fab some I’d welcome the chance to talk via pm or offline if you’re willing to sell the frame mounts.
