Flyinglow said he'd pick the potato up on his way through and down to Vic. Maybe we should break out the bender and get some armour on that thing while were at it.

Excellent, sounds like a plan is brewin' where I don't even have to be responsible for my own transportation...I'll bring some witch piss...:hillbilly:

I've got some tube stuff I'd like to build too. Namely something on the front end to protect me a bit in case Jay or someone else starts hurtling backwards towards me on a slippery slope...:lol:
 
Gonna try and mock up the exhaust, anyone you guys can recommend in Victoria for material?? Think i'm gonna run 2.5" with a flex joint just for ease.
Thanks
 
i just got my muffler the other day from lordco.... $29 bucks w the flag discount..

gooddeal.com!:hillbilly:
just found my lordco reciept with core charges for Dodge calipers, should be able to buy a complete exhaust and an aluminum radiator with my refund. Forgot how much the core charges were for those stupid things!!
 
i was just sayin that i went through this last weekend... and couldnt believe how cheap it was for that muffler... just sayin yo... but hey maybe its cause i didnt tell him it was for a landcruiser that the price was so low...
when you coming back to get my 55:flipoff2:
 
i am sure there is plenty of 3bs out there with 5 speeds still attached to them out there.... unless crushers is hording them all...

C'mon, there's gotta be a few square feet of yard left at your place that doesn't have something rusting or leaking on it. :flipoff2:
 
LOL yeah, i'd love a 55 but the ol' ball and chain would kill me, especially when house hunting, and i can't even get around to finishing this project!!!
You're the guy with the space, besides, dump the boler and get a cool wagon!...

Shhhhhh.... bad enough the idea's already crossed my mind. Good thing Ken wouldn't be interested in a trade or I'd be in DEEP s***...Cuz I sooo need a spring over and 38's..:hillbilly:

I started the 42 the other day and as it rattled, I realized it was 3 weeks since I'd driven it, so clearly something aint right with my truck situation.

Plus, sometimes it's kinda fun to lob hand grenades/trade ads out there and see what blows back..May have to do that soon just for s***s and giggles. :grinpimp:



I'm gonna get the boler usable first tho, and see how I like it. Having a mobile "whoops, drunk again" pad to sleep in sounds kinda nice to me.

Easier to sell when it's done anyways. You've never seen such a useless pack of buggers as those who look at a boler that's for sale. Even a freakin screwdriver is a foreign concept to them.:bang:
 
no worries... alot of tire kickers but no cruiser heads have come forward yet..
 
Well, looks like the "labs hi-steer" isn't gonna work with my oilpan and diff issue, so its up for sale if anyone is looking for a histeer set-up.

Got some goods from Mr.Marlin today. Gonna try the 25mm pin and bearing upgrade, defenitely burly compared to stock!

that is some bling there...

and i do have the SST tool if you need to set up your knuckles for the shims...

I did see the eliminators from trail-mart, was convenient just getting it all from Marlin and the comparison from stock, bearings/25mm pin, is impressive. Machining on the arms is also amazing.

I will defenitely take you up on the SST knuckle tool, thanks!:beer:
 
Absolutely no progress done to the truck, except for a start on a new shop where it'll hopefully finally get finished for winter wheeling season!
:beer:

Cool!

Pro tip: add some steel to the floor for pulling, building etc. Also, I still have your overhead ballasted hid death lights I promised you.
