Very cool...


LT I remember reading in an old TT of the Orange Metal Tech 80 having trouble at Moab. The tranny kept giving out while climbing. What was the cause of that???

Sorry I was having a flash back when I caught a glance of the 80 in the background.

It was low on ATF... :doh: (I'm actually being serious. All fixed now... He topped it off.)

Hey AL, I may have a schedule conflict so you may try to coax LT in giving you a tour. My daughter has a soccer tournament the previous weekend and if the do well, they have another tournament the weekend you'll be here. If we lose the weekend before I'm all clear though.

*returning to hi-jack*

What weekend and what mountian? I will be up at TSF the night of the 20th til the 22nd... Or maybe I only think that is what you are talking about and should shut-up... Anyway, I'd be happy to wheel with you, Al. :cheers:
 
Hi-jack continued...

Al, if you end up in Sleepers rig... hold on! The man is crazy!

Ill be up the 5th thru the 12th... So I am good even during the week, for those that can skip work :)
 
Bastards... I go down to the PMC swap meet and come back to see that my thread has been hijacked :flipoff2:

I'm down for some wheeling in August. You're in for a ride with either CreeperSleeper or I.

You down to help me finish up the "little" stuff that needs to done to my cruiser before this weekend? I just realized I leave for Japan on Sunday! Still going wheeling on Saturday.

Need to install the new clutch slave cylinder, wire up the ARB compressor, and... some other little fab stuff. Oh and install the GM alternator which will be done today.

Finally got around to finishing up the paint job. Thanks to CreeperSleeper (Chad) and another friend.

This is their work on the masking my dash. Needless to say it took forever to take all that masking tape off. Chad wanted to make extra sure that I didn't get any over spray.
