Yea, it ain't easy to let go, but I need to. Between being forced into early retirement and health issues, I need to thin the herd, and the 80 is better at filling my current needs, especially for long distance travel. I'm trying real hard not to slow down, but I do need to change lanes. John
I bought a Millermatic 180 Mig welder. The body work will commence soon! Finally!!!!!!!
I have the 211, so I know you will LOVE your 180! It is a great machine that makes a hack like me look like I know what I'm doing
Finally installed my IPOR sliders. Yep thems bolts holding them on. I through bolted them to the rockers and used self tappers on the bottoms. We'll see how they hold up the first time I try a little grinding. Thanks Pighead! I owe.
And.... helped throw away a blown F motor. End of an era for my friend. His wife didn't think it made good yard art any more.

With a heavy heart I sold the BJ55. It will now live in TN.
Wow, someone is very lucky to get that rig. You did a very nice job on it. Your comments about not being afraid to jump in it and drive it anywhere has been my adopted mantra for how I have been building mine.
I agree!

Wow! It is sold...
I am sure it is a somber moment. I loved your build thread with your daughter.
2nd page bump.
Also, checked my headbolt torques, adjusted my valves, timed it. Moved some trailspares out of the backseat area and in to the garage. Moved the recovery gear out of the back long enough to vacuum out a few more pounds of Pismo sand, etc...

Mounted two of the 38.5 TSL/SXs on the bead locks.

RHINO,
Seatbelts are a time sensitive purchase. Old seatbelts should be re-built (re-wove?, re-webbed?, re-strung?, re-belted?) I dunno, but Simpson says they do it. I bet other brands do it too. I forget what the seat life of a belt is now. 6 years? 10 years? You send your old belts to them, with money, and get like new belts back. Seatbelts is like brakes & steering. Not where you cut corners.

i'll take re-webbed for $100 alex.
i get it, i'd only buy a good condition set used. but i was just lookin around and prices have come down since a remember, or maybe my value of money has changed.
