What did you do to your pig today?

[Fireman]

I'll be there and would like to check it out. It looks good. I'll be in a green 4runner that's bobbed and dove tailed.

Added some class

And through on some serious roof racks

Super pick and pull find, $50 for all three pieces.

Took out the remainder of the glass, took out the remainder of the vacuum assist for the transfer case, cut out the dash, and got rear gate working great! Had to take advantage of a semi wet day outside in Wa state!!

Onemanarmy,

Have your hands stopped bleeding.

Onemanarmy,

Wasn't that bad. I was just replacing this piece....took about 10 mins, the hardest part is separating the rod from the old handle support

someone with a 3D printer needs to get on producing these.

tryed to purge air in the brake system after I have checked and cleaned all the pistons. padal is still spongy. failed.
But the good new is that I have my REGO. I will soon drive it...HA HA HA

 

[Awk338]

Cut and ground the old shock towers off and cleaned up all the old welds on the frame.

Awk338,

What's your plan for shocks and towers?

 

[SKULLYOTA]

been fiddling on and off with this rear bumper i'm building. A to Z Fabrication supplied the spindle/hinge. the rest is 2x4 box tubing, a Grote backup light, tow rings, etc. needs a few more attachment brackets, some corner protection, receiver hitch. The can mount has an integrated chainsaw holder that might be hard to see. I should take more pics of it.

Good job on that bumper. Where did you run the wires for the backup light, down by the spindle?

Ron,
Haven't decided on shocks yet but I think I'm going to grab a pair of 4x4labs towers
Thanks Tony

yep, comes out in a little hole by the spindle. SM420 doesn't have a reverse light switch so i'll have to turn it on and off manually.

Tony,

Have you given the Ford shock towers a thought. I just bought some at the dealer, $25 a piece. Not sure about fitment with stock steering box, though. I'm using a 60 box and they work great.

Tony,

Here's a couple of the new ones I'm putting on. I moved some stuff around and had to cut the last pair off and start over.

The part number from Ford is E5TZ-18183-A Twenty five dollars a piece from the dealer.
