My family used to have a little place in the town of Ennis, Montana. We drove up there from Colorado quite a few times over the years, hastily traversing Wyoming on the way. For years I gazed at those mountain ranges across Wyoming and wanted to...

😁👈🏻

Thanks, I'm sure they look horrible to someone actually experienced with CAD, but it has been awesome for visualizing and laying stuff out.

Those 3D renderings are insanely awesome.

I think that you’ve made a wise choice and I can’t wait to see this thing come together!

Not me, currently not in possession of a running solid axle Toyota. Lol. But I'll make it to SAS eventually. Long story short, ADHD took hold again and I changed to doing a 45 haha. Been working on the cab this summer, just got these corners I...

X2 on this advice. I’m at 80-85% AS/AD and I am super impressed with the performance. It all came down to packaging for me, otherwise I would have been around 90-100. I don’t need it to be any different for my driving style and comfort, plus I...

Well I didn’t know anything about links or the calculator, but I made a lot of trips back and forth between packaging and calculating…. no laptop with excel. It can be overwhelming. One step at a time, divide and conquer. People get really...

In my Tundra the mileage boost vs the extra cost is an exact wash. I’m not a fan even though I grow it and my livelihood depends on it, still wish it’d go away.

I am hoping I can get Dan (@DirtSniffer) to help me with my numbers here this fall. After SAS, I would like to move my rear axle back a couple inches, so redoing the rear 4 link. And I would like to get rid of the leafs in the front. But, I...

Good point. Numbering seems inhumane.

Was just revisiting the irate thread and saw your posts; were you or FJdiesel at SAS? Did we meet? I’m really happy with my suspension, short of no sway bars - actually I’m happy with it but people smarter than me are telling me I need them - but...

I was bummed we didn't to get to chat and look over each others project as well!!

Man I missed it and would have loved to have seen that! Also I propose Matt, Matt Too and Matt Also.

You are correct Mike.

I could be wrong but I think that @fjdiesel had the green stretched 40 with the Mercedes diesel under the hood and was camped in the RV near the office. Matt #3 also?

40+45+40 😍

Maybe I'll quit being a dumbass and try driving without the choke closed. Seems to run better that way. Jeeeeezzz.

No pics. Just small tech update. I might have spilled some soap and water on Yellr. It is going to take several iterations to get it clean. Tonight I also reset the timing. Yellr starts harder with the timing advanced to 11 here in Nebraska...

our last evening there.

And kitty corner from where Henry Heinz experimented with ketchup and chocolate milk, but ultimately decided the two were like oil and water. (Ketchup the 80)

We need to sneak back into Iowa - That area would be fun in the fall. And yeah, what Ian said.

It always amazes me how we take our trucks out in the trails, rocks, and places not conducive to longevity of most vehicles..then we drive them on the hi-ways and thru cities like any other car and go back and forth like it’s normal…the people in...

(Previous joke was referring to the certain kind of commercial Bryan says his 40 would star in.. 💊) Before SAS 9, Ketchup & Mustard took a short cruise to Iowa's Loess Hills area on the other side of the Missouri. Some snaps: Some serious ruts...
