    I’d keep that VW intact. VirtuallyWorthless but phenomenal fuel economy and actually really good road trip car. Ya got a nice fleet going there. I was 2 hrs too late on a mint 2009 Tundra RCSB. Was looking just missed the timing.

    Hey, looks like the truck is running well. One day I'll make the drive to Texas to this event. I think the best part was finally seeing a large group of 40's in their natural habitat. Almost get the impression everyone is keeping theirs in the garage anymore. Very Cool!! J

    The swampers are a pretty 'soft' tire. Road manners are kinda ugly. They will react/handle differently than the others. I've never been a fan of mixing tire brands.

    Hey, back in town so thought I'd see what you were up to. Marlin Crawler has front axle gusset kit they sell. I think I remember mentioning to you to put one on. Glad you got something on there before the tube ends got bent.

    You are well on your way bending the front axle knuckle hub. The weight of the tire/wheel combo with that big diesel and lockers is adding up. https://www.marlincrawler.com/axle/front-axle-parts/front-axle-armor/heavy-duty-knuckle-gusset-kit I would recommend a set of these. You have the 62...

    I think you better call Dave Gore for one of his custom grills. It'll be 80 - zero in a second if road gator jumps up and smashes both rads. J

    I like your rod holder there, but I'm not sure the zip ties are the way to go. Just saying.

    It draws off the battery, even with engine off if you have your 12V 'hot'. Should you have the fridge in your truck, plugged onto the 12V outlet, and you choose to have the 110V plugged in at the same time, the fridge should 'sense' the 110V and disconnect from the truck power by itself. Only...

    I would recommend an upgraded alternator and Premier Power welder. I installed my second alternator a couple of years ago, not remembering about the Premier system. A couple of weeks ago, I'm visiting BigMike at Marlin Crawler, looking under the hood of Marlins' Crawler and saw his Premier...

    Looks great, I'm sitting in India wishing I was home working on my rig. Only 1 week to go! Where did you get the sliders? They look good.
