Jeff and Fred at the end of a hard day

Hey Danny I had no idea that Jeff and Fred were related, in fact they look like twins.

Here it is Baltimore style.

Unless I'm mistaken, Fred is a clone of Jeff, created to do all the work.

I'm happy to say, we have none of the alcohol and drugs issues, in Vegas, that you find so prevalent in other areas.

He ain't heavy....

 

[Chungas Revenge]

we have none of the alcohol and drugs issues, in Vegas,

In fact, when ever I am feeling lessened morally, ethically and spiritually, I often turn to Vegas as my paradigm of hope....

It is true that in WV, we raise our own particular brand of of "home grown" reprobates...Vegas? You folks import them by the hour, plane load at a time...

Good news is, you can always point your finger at D.C. as a Mecca for the unprincipled, praetorian, mad as a march hare, home of the politically disturbed...

 

[Chungas Revenge]

Somebody say spark plug, brake shoe or radiator....Don't want the any of the thread Sturmtruppen reminding us that "chit-chat" is the appropriate venue to poke each other in the eye..

You had better get the Ole Mules shoes done this week, you may need it to get out of the snow! If it even snows.

If that rig will get you to the river and back, some of the best fly fishing to be had is during snow storms. Did you need to redo your exhaust or was it still in good condition? <<<---TECH!

 

[TheHardWay]

Whew, good save @rkymtnflyfisher - outlaws have gotta stick together, els'n, they get picked off, one by one.

 

[Chungas Revenge]

Why thank you for your poignant and tech savvy question...I have an exhaust??

 

[Chungas Revenge]

If that rig will get you to the river and back

Brother I can walk to the river from the back door...Not sure I could get a wet-fly down past the ice chunks. It was -9 on the mountain this AM...

You get your "tub" back under cover??

 

[rkymtnflyfisher]

Not sure I could get a wet-fly down past the ice chunks. It was -9 on the mountain this AM

Sounds like an excuse to me!

...I have an exhaust??

That's what keeps the backfires down to a dull roar.

The Mule whisperer..

Finishing up the aft section today...

Pre- execution photo's. No real surprises...Other than the rear drivers side shackle, which took some mild persuasion, all the hardware came off without additional effort...

Is the addict the girl who is most obviously talking to the telephone poll at the same time the guy is peeing on the poll?

I don't think it is the guy vomiting... I think he just heard Hitlery Clinton at the debate ... I had the same reaction

Back to your truck...


Take a good hard look at all the brake lines while you were there?

I just changed all my lines going to the back... I have been under ... Around... And upside down in the cruiser for the last 25 years and never once did I notice the compression fitting at the long section

Tucked under the frame clip ... Kinda surprised it never let go

 

[Chungas Revenge]

Tucked under the frame clip

Will do...

 

[Chungas Revenge]

Finishing some small projects today..Bigger things were afoot also. Cut a battery mat from some leftovers. Going back to a "Red-Top" too. Battery was a spare I ended up with in a trade.

 

[Chungas Revenge]

Ran the wire(s) through the rear ambi door. Made the adjustments to the light brackets also...

 

[Chungas Revenge]

some shots of the Driver/Rear passenger side spring pack, U-bolts, shocks and shackles installed..

 

[78fj40mg]

Why did you install the rear grease fittings facing inwards? It'll be kinda hard to grease up on all fours.
