Diesel sounds great. Can't wait for the write up. How' s the five speed doing? I just got 33's km2's and it feels a whole lot better.

The H55F, 4.11s and 33s are a great combo. 1st gear is awesome for trails. I highly recommend this mod if you are in the market for a new transmission. I usually start off in second gear, no slipping at all.

I like the power through all the gears. Marley is pretty thick and 5th gear pulls good too.

Yesterday I saw 83 MPH at about 3200 rpm. :grinpimp:

He traded it for the 40 :)

He traded with another mud member. Can't recall the name. J will chime in soon
 
Wow J so you already go rid of Hamp and got a 40 instead? Man I know the new job has been keeping me off the forums but this, this is unspeakable!

I know, I feel like I have been gone for years with this kinda news
 
Yes, Hamp went to Davegonz in Austin on a trade for the 40 (Machete) for now. I don't have the time for a full blown project with just a garage to do it in. I know I probably could, but just not willing to at this point and my work was questionable until this past week.

So, they have extended my work until the end of year. I plan on taking the 40 back to WY unless someone buys it before the move back.

Plans for Marley... head replacement... maybe diesel in the future...
Plans for Machete... if I keep him.. repaint caramel bronze and maybe take it back to SUA.. tribute to Bart the Bear/vitalground.org... One of my wife's true passions..

Anyhow it gives me a few more months to save up for the fabshop start up once I get back home. Yes, I am gonna do it one more time. DAMN THE MAN! I like working for myself better.... HA!

I'll let you talk that over with my wife. That's her kid... ;) That's her grocery getter/around town ride. She won't let me touch it... I've tried to put a lift on it for 3 years... BUT...NOOO!! all original except for the Depo head lights and PIAA bulbs. Everything works on it. Maybe one day I'll get to build armor and lift it....

Yep, gotta get those groceries!

Is your daughter driving yet? If so, what did she end up with?
 
I forgot you had an 80! Haha

You should say you have a friend wanting to trade for a stock suspension. Buy a new set-up roll it around in the dirt and then put it on :hillbilly:
