I do indeed, Own/Manage Bermuda Storage. Ram is still here, cruiser is now my "daily"

Awesome…I been wondering who exactly that was with the sweet rigs outside Bermuda Storage…we’ll have to talk rigs sometime. Ironically I passed you yesterday on my way to check out a LX700h OT but attempting to contain myself with the right 200 or GX550 (it’s for the wife..for now)

You work on Rt. 1 don’t you (you let an old 80 catch you on 288 yesterday afternoon). Used to see a built Power Wagon sitting there before the recent 200

Take two?

Getting gooseneck ready for trip out west. Going with Maxxis G load 14 ply trailer tires for piece of mind. Old tires have good tread but 8 years old.

Very nice. How was the install

Straight forward pretty easy

Very nice. How was the install

Just a little bit of welding!

 

[Land Shark]

Let me clarify a bit more. While the install on the truck was straightforward etc the actual build of the bumper was a bit tricky. Not necessarily hard per se just that you have to figure all the parts and little pieces out. Setting it up and making sure everything was where it was supposed to go was the “hardest” part. . I did not weld it up. Welding skills are not there yet. Luckily with a bunch of horse trading and future promises got rob to weld it up.

Back on the 62 on a random night to myself. Got some coolant lines cut and loosely mocked up. Will figure out tidiness later on after electrical. Also hit the DMV today and competed the titling after going through the abandoned vehicle process. Registered and antique plates baby!! As soon as she's ready for the first test drive it'll be street legal!

Turned out pretty good

Turned out pretty good

Thanks. I like that it still has a factory look. I think you would almost have to have a stock one next to it, to realize it has been trimmed. Plus I repaired some of the rust holes in it. Now to put the turn signals back on and the emblems. Still a few more things to do before we leave in a week. tic tock tic tock!

Stopped for the night. Need to get a few idler pullies first. Should have running before noon.

Got a late start chasing down pulleys this am. But it is back together and running!

More prep on 40.
Got rear wheel wells trimmed on the rear to be sure they do not rub
Heat shield for shock
Seam sealed fenders
Made anti inversion shackles for front.

Last wheel done. This one gets a new caliper too.

I found a very small piece of metal in the hub so I'm going to drain and fill the ear diff just to check.

Still have to rotate the tires, check fluids, and steering arm nuts and a few other things. Then start packing up
