No hard feelings Ted. It's gonna rain I'm just hoping to get at least one clear day Friday or Saturday.

So, are you read yet? :flipoff2:
 
no sweat, nuthin I can do about the weather anyway. The weather man has been wrong so many times on events I've planned I put almost no stock in it anyway. I will however have plenty of tarps setup just in case.

I'm ready, Gottsa wait for my buddy Sid's arrival first but all I really need. the 1800 got me in trouble last time.

Nicely put Ted, you forgot about them sipping wine with their pinky out...
They had to go slow so that their on board butlers could find the Grey Poupon inside the ARB fridge.
 
I remember seeing that train go flyin' by last year.

I also remember pulling over for said train when I saw it coming.
 
Are we there yet @tkinze?

Hah, headed out now to help Nick fix his locker and rebuild his front axle. 26 Hrs to departure!

What's your status, Do we have a wheelable mini yet?

No the :princess: is coming with so we'll be in the 4Runner. If the mini didn't have a bad diff, idle problem, etc, etc, etc I might.
 
Franken80 is put back together and ready for GSMTR...already loaded on the trailer waiting to be carried to the playground...

Even had time put new brakes on the white 80 (Q-Tip) so it will brake better for Miranda while I'm using her Expedition to tow to GSMTR

Well we are having a bit of a hick up I replaced the DS cv axel the 1 that I thought was broke and now I went to drive it and it sounds like both sides are popping. It only pops when in 4 wheel drive. And when putting a little load on it such as turning or going up and down a hill. I was thinking maybe a 3rd but it don't pop every rotation just when in a bind. Could 1 broke cv make so much noise that it makes the whole front axel pop ? Or what ? I know it sounds dumb but after all the beer today we are running out of ideas :)

Edit: we may have found the problem. We had a messed up cv and hub on PS. Should have it fixed Tom. When I get my hands on a hub.

Just load Leigh's rig and be the b*tch all week. She'll have fun and you'll be rewarded later
 
Zack, it could still be either issue, but unfortunately I think that sounds more like a diff problem now.
 
Here is the latest weather report for Knoxville.

Thx Steve we got the new cv in passenger side and now the hub won't go on new axel. The old cv was all kinda nasty and had a hole in the boot and mud all in it. The hub bearing moves side to side a good bit so maybe just maybe that side is the problem lets hope a hub goes on and all my problems disappear ! Yall can bet if my 3rd is the issue and I miss Gsmtr it will be SAS time !!!! I'm getting tired of breaking!!!

Ted,
The 85 has no brakes, no sliders, no front shocks, and maxed out brake lines.
