I figured out what to do with my 2 piggy's and a dismembered fj 40.
Thanks for the inspirin.
 
Wow, that's a sweet Cruiser!

I bet you're jonesing to get that out on the trail. :D
 
Thanks :D

Uhhh...you could say that :grinpimp:

I need to wheel!I aint been on the trail since the ones here closed in November :crybaby:
 
Not alot of progress this week.I have only had two hours to work on it at the shop.Its all wired up pretty much and I cranked it.But I cant start it cuz I still need a radiator and a fuel tank.

I brought the passenger front fender to work today so I could patch up some rust damage :D

That rig is going to be absolutely amazing!! The transformation is almost complete.
 
So will we see it in the Little Sluice again?
Brfore & after

That was one of the last trips on my Dana 44 .I got it fixed and blew it up again at aCalrocs deal in Placerville a month later :crybaby: Then I got my 60 :grinpimp: That pic was in 03 wasnt it?

And I think a good question would be will I ever see your rig on the trail??:flipoff2:

You gonna make the Rubicon trip this year?With your junk?

:lol:
 
thats what i noticed also, not trying to make a mig weld look like a tig weld is good stuff.

:lol: you seen the tack tack tack thread on Pirate?I think thats a bull sh*t technique.If you want tig looking welds,tig it :idea: I like smooth consistant beads with good penatration when it comes to mig welding.Not that I get it perfect every time,but I try :D

So is it bad that my weld doesnt have the little crescents in it? :D
