Isn't he like 25?

Looks like a fun toy.

Hey now! I know I'm grey haired, but I'm not that old.

....neither is my son.

 

[Box Rocket]

Are you going to lift it?

It will be getting shorter. Full suspension overhaul is in the works.

I lived in Walnut Creek briefly in my early teens. Then it was out to Antioch for a couple years.

wow, a bunch of ex-Walnut Creekians too. Small world.

Not 80 related per se, but picked this up over the weekend for my son that gets his license this week.

Beautiful. Love the lip on the bed they had back then.

Replaced all the bushings at 260k miles, sleeved both rear LCA & UCA. Extended the LCA by 3/8". Overall, what a job and a workout.

This is my next big project. Gonna install a lift and do all the bushings at the same time. I would be lying if I said I hadn't been avoiding/putting it off lol

logged 900 road miles in the LX, sadly no off-roading. But still surprised every time on how civilized this solid axle vehicle ride on the highway.

Also leaving a mark here on page 1212 of the thread

@Salue Trip looked sweet. Sad I couldn't swing it. Tell Mongo and your other buddy I said hey and we should get something together for Fall.

1212....wish I had something to post.

EDIT: Just remembered I got a 12K winch over the weekend for the 80....I guess that's oddly appropriate.

That explains your lack of activity here. I was wondering why it takes you such a long time to measure the height of your ride. I guess this was a really long trip to Harbor Freight to buy a measuring tape. That's what happens when you trust your navigation 100%.

Doh! Sorry totally forgot about it. It might be a few more month before I get the right take measure to do the job right.

This happened today! I don't normally drive it during the week but I really just kind of wanted to.
