well,

thanks to stumpy, it will idle now.

had a little run around the "front yard" to see how the springs look (and to give the 4.88's a try).

gonna have to drop the bump stops an inch or two, but all in all, looks ok.

it'll be on the trails soon

I guess there are a few subtle differences if you look close enough...

[yotawheeler]

common sense and fear of death? c'mon i thought you left those behind long ago crusty?! right round the time you got your first cruiser i would think, no?

 

[seapotato]

yeh, common sense? wtf, who are you and what have you done with Kirk???


as for the fear of death, meh, probably be more like maiming and disfigurement, so don't sweat it...

 

[crustyBJ60]

[Rigpig]

Yeah, i'll be giving you local yocals a call and catch up on the going-ons... My turn to tear into a trail machine, so that i've got something to wheel when i come home.
