OK - this thread just got kicked back into gear. I can't believe I was almost on page 6!
The UP Overland trip dates were announced and I reserved my spot. Come hell or high water I'm driving my Pig. The

is going too so that means a few creature comfort mods. My list includes:
1) Install headers and new exhaust
2) Install Quiet Crap sound proofing
3) Install radio
4) Build rear storage and sleeping platform
5) Have a buncho shakedown runs to make sure this thing runs perfect. I'm going to try and get a buddy to put a wrench on this thing too after I'm done with it to check behind me. I'm prone to make...you know...mistakes...
I've been swamped with work lately and just started a second company which I hope to unveil and announce soon. This new 'adventure' is gonna be fun.
I'm ordering the Quiet Crap now - time to get busy!


Oh, and if time allows I might take my M716 trailer apart, have it sandblasted, and reassemble it to tow up to the UP (but I'm not holding my breath.) Now that would be cool!
