No snow in the Carolinas, but very wet at Big Creek training grounds trails, awesome day

NICE non-oem air intake tube... Where'd ya get it?

I cannot claim credit for locating and installing that part. I purchased the rig the 6th of December 2016 and it was already on. Going through the fundamentals to insure reliability, then will upgrade as necessary. Very sound rig for age and mileage.

Thanks,

Ben

I've got the same color and it's really disappointing after a good run. The white and black trucks look great! I look like I just got back from the grocery store. GIVE ME SOME CREDIT FOR THAT MUD!

installed some gamaviti seat gears in, vacuumed the nasty stuff under the seats, and threw on a new heater control valve.

So i bought this 60.....super fun to drive and so cool to drive such an mechanical car with almost no computers . However it does definitely make me appreciate the comfort of the 80 even more. Also....manuals kick ass. Wish I could swap one in the 80.

I continued to work on some of the preventative maintenance that was overlooked by the former owner.

I replaced all the u joints...one was pretty rough. I also welded in some patch panels and removed the fender flares.

Went out to big bear with the family. Snowed very hard up there today. Went about a mile in and couldn't go any further. Met this guy though.

I sold some OEM parts I no longer needed and got started on my sound deadening and interior bedliner project. It forced me to clean the inside too! I'm using Al's Heat and Noise Reducer-rolled and brushed on, and then Al's bedliner. I'm also adding some stick on deadener in a few strategic places. Drawers and sleeping platform to follow.

First coat.

I think I'll order my front springs with the extra cash so I can get rid of the stinkbug.

Changed my oil for the second time since the rebuild back in July/August. 5000 miles total so far on the rebuild.

Did first oil change on new Harrop lockers, 4.88 gears. The oil that came out looked new. Credit @gearinstalls.com . Actually, I'm kind of stoked, there was no indication of wear on the magnets. At all. Weird really. Anyway, if you want perfectly set up gears, send them to: gearinstalls.com

Also swapped out t-case oil to Chevron Syn-Gear XDM 75w-90.

 

[SeaDrifter]

Almost done.

Front brake pads. Was going to do the rotors too but they checked out in spec so they will wait until warmer weather. Pads were bad. Stupid aftermarket pads the PO had put in. Before the trip I checked the outside pads on each wheel and they were good. The inside pads weren't. I'm guessing there is a reason for this. Will have to research.

And got a code 26. Awesome.

Got my 315s took them up to play in the snow then installed caster plates and center diff lock switch. Pulled front sway too.

Some of the group loves to cook and Im thankful they do. With some light rain morning breakfast consisted of sausage, bacon, eggs, french toast w/real CDN syrup, tortillas, and coffee. Beats my instant maple oatmeal and bananas
