Unfortunately I am about an hour drive North of me for the seasonal roads to really open up, then there's a ton.

It was wierd with that shock. It was coming off fine with my cordless impact then it suddenly stripped. Quick solution with the cut off saw. I bought a cordless one and use the crap out of it!
I see you went Milwaukee. I bought the high torque M18 Fuel impact gun, man it made short work of all the rusty bolts on the donor axle I had. How's the grinder?
 
Made some step nuts and extended step nuts because I've got nothing else better to do with my time evidently. The Dynamat on the floor meant the plastic nuts were holding on for dear life until they just disappeared. The longer ones makes the problem go away.

I have same issue. PM sent for 2 extended length. Surprised these were not on your website for purchase yet :)

I have the Milwaukee grinder at the powder coat shop, and it is very good. I have a Rigid set at home and they had a deal on 4.0 ah batteries and the grinder so I went for it. Both are brushless motors and are really good. If I was buying without already having some tools, I'd go Milwaukee but they really seem to be equals so far.
 
I'm not looking forward to removing my shocks...I feel like the cutting equipment may need to come out. New ones will go on with liberal anti-seize.
The rear bolts are super wimpy, so I used my torches for the win. Came out like butter then.

Yeah I'm not sure what to do with these yet. Not 100% I'll do other colors and not 100% if I'll bother with stock length. :meh:

Only four people will want them so I'm not gonna put a huge amount of effort into them :flipoff2:
 
Was able to check out some trails in Osceola National Forest that are usually too wet to try. Even with the drought it's still soupy in places though.

Five!
 
Saturday was spent as a vendor at the UTOR (Utah Toyota Off Road) Expo hosted by Tony Divino Toyota in Riverdale Utah. This is the second year of the event and it is growing fast. This year was probably double the size of last year in number of attendees as well as number of vendors. Its attended heavily by Tacoma, FJ Cruiser owners but there is a good variety of rigs from the entire Toyota 4wd menu. Since I was a Tepui vendor I was busy doing vendor stuff and didn't get more than 10' away from my truck the entire time so I didn't see much else.

Getting some gas on the way to the Expo.


all set up and ready for people to show up.


I donated a full set of Tepui Expedition Gear Bags to the raffle and my son came with his minitruck for the afternoon to give me a hand.


Nice shot from someone else of the cruiser at some point during the day.


The rest of these photos are not mine but should give a feel for the event. It's worth checking out if you're in northern Utah mid April next year.
