Awesome build and that monstaline looks great. How did you do your mirrors? Were you able to roll it on those as well?
 
Stock gearing?

Yes stock gearing. Its actually not bad at all. Coming over Donner pass I do lag on the major grades, I slow down to 60mph.
Somehow I'm getting 15mpg driving from Reno to Dublin and back. Gears will be changed in the future when I have the coin.

But my first car was the goat with the 2f, 33s and stock gearing and no tune up in like 15 years. So I have a slow definition of slow.

Thanks!
Yes I rolled it on the mirrors, be careful not to cover the crack that allows the mirror to fold in.
 
Did you ever get your diff armor and stuff done?

I'll have to let you drive my loaded 125 HP FJ60 up hill, and you have a new, new definition of too slow.

I was thinking more of off road gearing.
 
so you sleeping inside? what have you modded for the platform? are you running a fridge?
i only ask because your charcuterie quotient seems a bit low in your current posts, maybe i missed the Pryor Food Thread.

One week to go Brofessor...

JT here is the new guy, right? So he's got to up his game in the charcuterie department, I agree. I think little brother is going to be schooling him all over the Rubicon! Dad has the fridge and will be hauling the groceries, I'll bet. Is there an initiation ceremony planned?

Still looking for those 16oz torpedos in a can. They haven't made it to Sacramento yet that I can find.

And what you mean a week? See you on Sunday night at Buck!


And...More pics of the GF and fewer of the truck!

when I was his age: these were what I knew as Charcuterie.

save the coin JT, get the rig ready first. Us old n slow folks will cover the coffee and grub.

you could score something like this, and use it as a sleeping platform also. LOL

As far as the good stuff goes, I'm hell bent to make sure we have about 2 gallons of Jameson :cheers:
Other than that all I got is a dual usb charger I wired up today:meh:

Since I'm the only one with heavy springs I've been told that I'm carrying all the spares, tools, tables and well everything. You guys know how the goat and johns 80 lean loaded up lol.

Just read this thread again and he was schooled... Big bro still had to winch with his 35's. Little bro didn't have to winch for second year in a row on his 33's! :hillbilly:
