I also swapped the FJC steel wheels for the FJC 8 hole alloys. I just need to find one more for a spare and some center caps. I was considering leaving the tires that came with the alloys on, but they aren’t in the greatest condition. I’ll probably end up pulling the MT’s off the steel rims...

lol, part of getting older I guess.

Bringing this back from the dead. A few days ago I noticed that my windshield washer reservoir seemed to have a bunch of mildew in it. Instead of simply cleaning it, I took the opportunity to put in a new reservoir, pump, lines, and upgraded nozzles. Ended up with a nice strong spray pattern...

Awesome sale on diff gears for 80 series guys. https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/regearing-to-4-88-nitro-and-justdiffs-are-having-a-pretty-huge-sale.1318389/

Spotted this nice 60(62?) the other day on Bragg.

I didn’t replace the entire fender, just had a patch cut out from a rust free vehicle. The welds aren’t pretty but they are solid. As far as the rubberized coating I just painted it really good and did a thin layer of rubberized rattle can coating. Seems to have held up fine so far.

Spotted this clean 470 in Lillington yesterday.

Just got back from SHOT show in Las Vegas. This was cool, but it would have been a whole lot cooler if it was mounted to a 70 series.

Made a few batches of venison jerky today. First batch was sliced backstrap that I marinated for a few days. Second batch on the dehydrator now is seasoned ground venison with a little fresh black pepper on it. This is on top of the hickory smoked venison summer sausage I made a few weeks ago.

The wife decided to make some decorations for the 80 this year. Edit: It looked better at night, the kids loved the “monster truck”

Well that didn’t last long. Had a used arb with 9.5k winch pop up on marketplace. I still have to do the wiring and a few other things but it’s on.

I got to take a ride one of these a while back. It was really, really fast. Sorry for the lousy photo, it’s a screenshot from the video I took.

Spotted this 80 on Bragg the other day.

I’m pretty sure the bolts are M12x1.25 on the 80.
